Has anyone sorted anything out either side of this?

I don't want to build anyones hopes up, but if time allows me to organise it I may have a good option for the Sunday, but it depends upon where people are staying. In the meantime, please advise on the following:-

1. Are you available on the Sunday afternoon for a game, say after 3.00 pm?
2. Will you pay £46.00 for a round only, compared to a normal weekend rate of £60.00.
3. Where are you staying?

I may have something happening in my personal life (positive) that may make it a problem to sort everything out, but thought I would ask people's thoughts first, see the potential numbers, and take it from there, so I hope I don't get anyone excited, but may have a good option for the Sunday.

Im not at the Hillside meet due to work :-(. I can make a game Sunday afternoon though if its in the north west :-).
 
Ooohh this sounds good would you care to expand?

I can't play on the Sunday as me and junior are in a pairs comp at northernden but if there's a game on the Tuesday I will play.

I'll wait to see the interest/availability/numbers before revealing my hand.

Caldy was full BTW for this Sunday, but I'm on the reserve list.
 
I could be interested in a Sunday afternoon round. Not sorted a place to stay yet but plenty of hotel options in Southport or lytham within a few miles of hillside.
 
Does anyone know what time it all starts at Hillside?

I have a few hours in the car and not sure whether to drive up the day before and stay over or to drive up on the day and stay over after golf.

Liverbirdie, I could be up for a game on the Sunday once I figure out what I'm doing with a room. Do you know any decent places ito stay n the area of Hillside?

I'm still waiting on an up to date answer from the Sunday option as I asked them 2-3 months ago. BTW it was onlt £40.00 not £46.00 (but the normal Sunday price is £60.00). We would need a minimum of 20 though, and not much interest so far.

The course is Delamere and I scouted it a month ago and it is a cracking heathland/moorland couse, although the rough was severe. A great course though.

Are more people interested in a Tuesday rather than a Sunday option? Delamere isn't available then though, as they have a county match on. The only problem is it is 40 miles away from Hillside.

Hillside hotels, Southport is probably only 2-3 miles away, so that is the closest for many. However, I know I'm biased but Liverpool is only about 12-15 miles away and it is a brilliant, friendly, beautiful city (nowadays, in the main) and is a great night out (better then Newcastle, even). So that would be my tuppen'orth worth, there will also be a lot more choice for hotels.

I have just put my notice in today, in my current employers, so if I can still get an afternoon off for the Tuesday, I can look into other Tuesday options, god willing.

Any Tuesday interest?

I was possibly looking to play on Sunday - dependant on course - but top of my hit list was Delamere. If it is Sunday afternoon, I am in. Playing its neighbour Sandiway on Wednesday and Formby Tuesday - just need the same weather as the last coupl of days and it should be a cracking trip:cool:

Paul, is Formby on Tuesday with GM Forum guys.?....are all the spaces taken?
 
Excellent....shall I leave you to look into booking it....sure we must be able to get a 4 ball?

2-3 months ago, I quietly asked s and a, west lancs, formby and delamere about options after checking with MikeH. Ill check my notes again and advise, one give a good discount, and didn't have a minimum amount, west lancs I think for about £70,normally £95 I think for the Tuesday. Might be too steep though????
 
Hi Rick - not with GM sorry - playing with my boss (or ex boss now as I have changed jobs in the same company) and his nephew, who is +2 and a member (!!!), and probably another guy from work. Playing with him again at Sandiway on Wednesday, where he has just joined. Catch you at Cooden on Friday
