How far North??

[007chappie]

Gents,

I have noticed that a lot of the NW "section" of the forum is around Manchester/Liverpool/Preston. Is there anybody on here who lives a little closer to me? Any fellow wooly-backs from Cumbria? It seems I'm a little caught between the majority of the NW guys and the Scots lads to the North......

Your not that far from Preston, whereabouts in cumbria are you?

Sorry i'm from liverpool. There is actually not many from your way is there.

Near Barrow-in-Furness. Preston isn't that far, about 1hr 20, just havn't noticed any other "marras" on here!!

On the note of the lads north of the border, I fancy a trip up to Silloth on Solway some time this summer, if anybody from up there fancies a quick hop over the border I'll be quite happy to drive up and meet them, I've never played it but it is supposed to be a wonderful course on a nice day, I belive it is a qualifier for the open.

Was until we replaced them as the qualifier!!
I and IM02 are going to Silloth for a 4ball better ball open in July......£12.50 per man it cost and I'm really looking forward to it.The day before we are playing another 4BBB open at Carlisle GC for £15 per man and we have all been drawn together...happy days!

Silloth is a top track.

Do you ply at Furness GC 007,played there a few years back, not a bad track.
I live in chorley, lanc's. and certainly don't mind the hour and a half trip to silloth. Pick agood day and golf does'nt get much better.

No, but I'm only 10 minutes away. I play at www.ulverstongolf.co.uk, best course round here, mature parklands and venue for quite a few county games. Ulverston is about 10 mins before Barrow-in-Furness if you come along the A590 from the M6.

Hi Alchemy, I only moved to Chorley last year so ive put off joining a club until this year.
Ive had an interview at Pleasington,and should hopefully be in within the next 2 weeks.
Played there a few times since moving up and been very impressed.
Where do you play?

007, I am down in the erse end of Cumbria with my work now and then and could bring the sticks for an evening game in the summer. I cover all of cumbria and I have customers in Ulverston so when the lighter night are here I am game.

I have played Pleasington many times,very nice course, would have joined there myself ideally but Shaw Hill did me a deal on the joining fee saving me £500.
Also I had a few friends at Shaw hill as well which made a difference as I was new to the area as well.

You can have a game at our place if you like but its like a bog at the mo but its a bit of fresh air and knock the cobwebs off the swing.

PM me!
