Hillside On Friday.

Yes it would be fine Fishy, it's a proper links course so unless it was non stop then it'll recover ok.
 
On a much more serious note- we really need to get something sorted in terms of food and drinks (many of) for those staying on the Thursday evening. Can anyone recommend somewhere decent in Southport?

Just follow RickG - we found some highly dodgy watering holes and some interesting company - there were even some girls without any visible tattoos and most of their own teeth - obviously not the ones from Norwich! :D
 
Based on the fact the forecasters have got it wrong the last few weekends and they're currently predicting a mixed bag on Friday I'm thinking they haven't got a clue..

So Im predicting a beautiful day in southport, The sun will be baking the fairways. Don't bother bringing your waterproofs and don't forget the sun cream. :cool:
