Kent Spring meet up - March 2013 - Chart Hills

Sandy, it's a maybe, I had made other arrangements for the day after Chart Hills went pear-shaped. If I'm there then I'm there, if I'm not then I'm doing chores :mad:
 
Laying in bed and contemplating a lovely day. No wind out there and dry! I hope it stays that way.

What time are you aiming to get there Sandy?
 
Shows how little I've been online lately just had email notification about pm you sent me sandy, I was halfway to Biddenden when it came through!

Will pass on Pedham today as I played there yesterday with HIDs step dad as he's a member up there. Seeing as I'm down this way just gonna call into my place grab some brekkie and then pop into work as its on way back try earn a bit of overtime whilst being paid for a days leave at the same time.
 
Hi Sandy.

I'm so sorry but I'm not going to make it today. I've woken up and can't turn my head. I've been waiting to see if loosens up but its not. I've even been swinging clubs in the living room. I don't want to risk putting myself out of action for a week or so.

I hope you all have a great day. Looks like the weather is going to be ok .

I hate letting people down. :(

Have a good one and thanks for the opportunity.

Cheers

Paul

Sorry that you're not coming Paul and that you get well soon

Make sure that you put your name down for the next Kent meet !
 
Sorry guys when Chart Hills went south I decided to cancel my day off to be used later in the year (fingers crossed) when the sun comes out! So now catching up on some filing I promised I would do in September!
 
Thanks to Sandy for her exceptional organisation and sorry I could not stay for the food (not like me to turn down food :D)

Great game with ChrisD, Justone aka "The Medicine Man" and Leftie. The weather turned out great and was thoroughly enjoyable, also the course was in decent shape given the rain we have had. Not quite Chart Hills but great fun for a cobbled together meeting.

Now off to search on ebay for a putting game :D
 
Huge thanks to Sandy for organising an alternative venue at short notice, and for the ensuing good day out.

The course was in surprisingly good condition bearing in mind recent weather and scoring was as we have come to expect for a Forum meet ranging from 30 - 39 points.

I won't disclose the winner as I'm sure that TXL would like to talk you all through it ;)
 
Just made it home, tell me, why do people that have had a minor ding not move their car to the hard shoulder like the others involved! I hate the M25.

Many thanks Sandy, you managed to sort out a replacement venue and some decent weather - top job. :)

Thanks to my playing partners, James (Jimboo), Charlie (Hooker) and Sandy for a fun round. There were a few extra water hazards to avoid, but overall the course was is good shape considerring the amount of rain over the last few days. Good to meet new folks and some old lags again, just new Justone would not be able to resist a game :)
 
Thanks Sandy for sorting out what was a very enjoyable meet. Pedham Place was vastly different from my last visit with the Portacabins now gone and a super duper clubhouse in place and a fabulous range which showed the professionalism of the forum with everyone practicing before breakfast!

Thanks to Justone, Leftie and RichardC for a fun round and great company. Nice to meet Anthony (TXL) who obviously played superbly and to meet Hooker for the first time as well as catch up with Jimboo and Sandy, and a non playing Teegirl

Thanks all !
 
Good day! Very much enjoyed the company. Hooker is a dangerous point scoring machine, Jimbooo is set for a handicap tumble and TXL hit some very very tasty shots.
Pedham played better than any of the inland courses I've been on recently. The fairways were generally just about dry enough to get a shot away without feeling like you were hitting out of a puddle. And they did look after us extremely well. Good place.
I'm now set for an evening's putting practice. :eek:
 
Hey hey, that was fun :thup:

Nice to finally play a round with chrisd and RichardC and to see Leftie again, couldn't have wished for better company... unless strippers were available! :p

Congrats to TXL for a truly excellent score, and thanks to Sandy for sticking with it and getting something organised (and bringing fair weather).. the ham was bloody lovely!!

See you all next time.... off to buy some Deer Antler spray for my back.... :mad:

Is that dear antler spray or deer antler spray ? - lovely pink trousers by the way James! Worth every penny of the £7 they cost and they matched your eyes as well as your thong (but not your viser which clashed)
 
Very enjoyable day with great company! Can't believe I've probably seen Sandy dozens of times up at Etchinghill range and never knew it, LOL.

Well played all !
 
Great company, great weather, great course(well I liked it quirky and good condition), great value and met some lovely people.

I managed to scrape it round and score well though I really didn't know where the ball was going half the time as I was hitting it rubbish and nearly took out TXL and Sandy on the 3rd hole.

I lost 2nd place when my birdie putt lipped out for what would have been a gross 2, nett 0, for 5 points !!! I knew that would cost me in the end.:p. I was then further pushed down into 4th place after thinking I was 3rd when Justone produced his card from his (bright pink) trouser pocket after the scores were announced, gutted :mad:

Sandy makes the game look effortless, I think I could learn a lot from players like her and thanks for organising it at short notice. TXL is a very steady player who hits a long ball, not sure about the putter though I don't think it would last very long after being helicoptered a few times ;). Jimbooo will be a very dangerous player once he starts playing regularly.

Great meeting the other chaps as well, it's nice to be able to chat with fellow golf addicts.

Toooooooooo much info.

Sorry I cancelled, as it would have been fun. Normally I would have chanced it, but given the general weather this week, and the travelling, and the 'every thing that can possibly go wrong at work at the moment' it seemed best to cancel. Jiggered I missed a good one.

Glad you all enjoyed it though. Really. I am. Honestly. For sure. No jealousy in the slightest. Nope. None. Not even a sniff.
