Lee park this saturday (southerners uncaged)

Nice game with the lads yesterday. I threw it away thinking I hadn't done enough with the fantastic array of talent on show.

Decided to try and cut a driver around the trees on par 5 16th second shot. First time trying with that driver and it went bullet straight instead of slicing. :mad: blank.

Swartzy birdied 17 then drove to the edge of water on 18. Duffer his chip 1 yard short of water then chipped and left himself 30 feet. I three putted for a bogey and he drained his 30 footer to beat me on countback. :rofl:

At least the lee park boys did enough to covers Stu's bet in absence. :whoo:

The scouse chambers bay didn't disgrace herself and kept the eventual winning score to +3 or 33points. The USGA will be pleased.

Got to the hotel... 3 man room, a single and a double!! Luckily I was first through the door and baggsied the single!

It's going to be like a scene from Trains, Planes and Automobiles..... "That's not a pillow"!!!!

Out with Stuey and Pete.....even Pete can't translate for Stuey..

Just about got away with getting into the hotel car park.... Shuttered entrance and you have to ring to get in....

Girl in reception answered and I requested she open her rear doors so we could enter! Cue Stuey giggling like a girl.
I don't think the schoolboy humour is going to get any better.

Top day yesterday, and the Lee park boys mullered them.

Liverpoolcat2Phil being the lowest scorer (stableford wise:)), Richart off to a flyer, but couldnt handle the longer holes.

However, him and Andy beat me and Phil, although I've never played betterball on full handicap before, so the 4 point win could have worked out very different......;)

Great weather, the greens were true, if a bit slow. Shame Petelav couldnt make it, hope everything's ok, Pete.

A nice Indian and a few beers afterwards, although the portions in the Indian meant we slowed on the beers a bit (I told you Stu, if we'd gone to subway, I'd have been in the John Lennon bar till 3, throwing shapes). Me and you might have had to take turns on the small dance floor though.:whoo:

Richart and LP were sharing a double bed, so whether Rick had to un-velcro their hair this morning, I dont know. Tough gig.

Hope you all have a great day at Royal Liverpool today, weather is holding out so far, but due to come in for the back 9, possibly.

Good luck with getting over 50 points for your weekend, Phil.:D

Just want to say a huge thanks to the Lee Park boys and in particular Pete and Stuey who looked after us admirably Saturday night showing us the sights of Liverpool, although I'd have preferred not to have seen some of them, (what is seen can not be unseen)....... Smokey Mo's I think was the place and they seemed to have a policy of not allowing anyone in unless they were accompanied by their grandparents.

Rich and Phil looked cute in bed this morning, lovely couple......

Massive thanks to MikeH today. Unfortunately the weather didn't hold out and it started to chuck it down by the 3rd and then the wind got thrown in for good measure.....it didn't really stop until the 13th.....

Another thing I would have preferred not to have seen was LP's white trousers turn see through in the rain......

The match was well fought with an honourable draw with it going to the final putt.

Company and banter was to the usual forum standards....thanks again to everyone who took part.
 
Rick you didn't mention who won the uppity southerners stableford on the Saturday or Sunday.:whistle: Think I might buy a waterproof bag with my winnings !

A big thank you to the Lee Park boys for the game. Nice course in lovely condition. Just need to get the mower set a bit lower on the greens.;) Had a blast with Pete and Stu Saturday night. It was just like a night out in Farnham.:whistle: Stu has definitely got a bit of a ginger tinge in a certain light, and I realise why we went to Smoking Grannies, so Pete could try and look young. Didn't really work, as you blended in fine mate :thup:

Huge thanks to Liverpoolphil who treated Rick and me to the game at Royal Liverpool, and to Mike Harris for being the perfect host. Cracking match despite the weather, but you don't like to see someone bottle a three foot putt to win the game.:whistle:

Thanks again guys, a weekend to remember.:mmm::)

The last picture looks like Phil has just duffed it into the bunker, where as in fact he played a suberb shot to three feet.

Stu looks good in the dark.:thup:

Thank you guys for a great weekend

Had a great round with Rich , LB and Andy - didn't play my best but throughly enjoyed the company and the course , greens rolled nicely just need a little cut - rick with the help of his able sidekick nearly got me ordering bacon rolls !!

Saturday night with Stu joining us was a cracker , from the drive back from the pub where I somehow squeezed into the back of ricks car. Drinks round some good bar , a nice curry and then onto Smokin Moes !! There are sights in that bar that I can never unsee:o

A nice quiet cool nights sleep :D was needed

Then onto Royal Liverpool

One of my fav courses I have played - its not a course with big dunes etc but it's subtlety wonderful , perfectly positioned bunkers ( I found lots :D ), lovely greens and punishing rough - some very nice views as well

We had a singles match which rich sneaked the win after a couple of lost balls from myself

But the big battle was between me and rick and Mike and Rich.

It was nip and tuck to start with and only a hole in it for most of the game - until the dirty tricks started - first Mike with the advice that a driver was fine as plenty of fairway ( as I ran through the end ) , he then set his trolley onto me as it chased me down fairway nearly running me over :D

Me and rick got a good 2 hole lead after I had a run of three pars and a birdie - Mike then got a cracking birdie and 16 , Rich scrapped a half on 17 and it came down to the 18th - I hit two crackers to 20 ft and no one else is on the green - Mike then nails a chip shot to 10 ft and sinks the putt , I then leave myself a 2 footer for the win ..........

And missed it :D

A half was a fitting end to a great weekend

It was a pleasure to play with great company over the weekend and I hope to do it again soon

Cheers guys
