Just a reminder of your teeing off times (in case you missed them).
Traffic can get a bit busy around the area during rush hour, so please make sure you leave yourself plenty of time to get there.

Looks like it's going to rain over the course for the next 3 or 4 hours then (hopefully) it's going to be dry from then onwards! Better than the snow and storm that was forecast a few days back
Might turn out to be a good day for shooting under 100!
See you guys tomorrow bright and early!

Dunno, I was just looking at that
I was thinking of going through to Purley and then take the Selsdon Rd (Mitchley Ave) looking out for the Addington PALACE golf club on the left, and turn there.
I haven't got a clue how long it'll take or what the traffic will be like at that time in the morning
Everyone needs to make sure they get the RIGHT COURSE!

Proper excited about tomorrow!!
I've arranged with the nursery to take the kids 30 minutes earlier than normal as I got a bit concerned about the traffic!! I hope to be there at around 8:30 - traffic permitting.
For those travelling on the M25 - the Dartford crossing is normally bad - allow more time here and there's normally a crash around Clackett services (near junction 6 - A22 turn off). My advice is to come off the A22 (Caterham) junction. Avoid the A23 as this leads straight into Croydon and is normally nose to tail.
Follow the A22 all along - you'll go past Caterham and Whyteleafe. Whyteleafe has a small parade of shops at the end of which is a roundabout (the Whyteleafe Tavern will be on your left). At the roundabout take the third exit (right) - Hillbury Road. This will take you up a slight hill and under a bridge. Keep going up this road - at the end you'll reach a main road - this is Warlingham (Limpsfield Road). Turn left and follow this road until you reach a large roundabout. At this roundabout take the third exit (right) - Addington Road. This road takes you through Selsdon - the traffic can be bad here as well - it's the traffic lights that snarl it up. You'll go past Selsdon Park Hotel - back in the day it was used by one of the FA Cup finalists to prepare for the big day.
Follow Addington Road - you'll go past SPH, through Selsdon (a smallish high street) and you'll eventually come to a large roundabout. This is the bottom of gravel hill and you're almost there!! At the roundabout take the second turning (straight on). You'll then come across another roundabout - take the first exit (left) - Lodge Lane, right onto Addington Village Road, left onto Spout Hill. Stay on this and it eventually becomes Shirley Church Road (bearing left). The golf club's on this road on the left.
I've done the above so that you guys can avoid Croydon. I have a feeling that some of the SatNavs will take you up the A23 and through Croydon which will take you forever. My way will still involve traffic but it should be moving traffic..
Looking forward to seeing those that know me and meeting those that don't.
