Lydd - 25th April

[medwayjon]

If we are 6 I reckon chuck the balls up and go out in 2 3-balls?

 

[medwayjon]

We are booked in as 2 3-balls at present, Lydd are very accommodating and have said if 2 more want to join to make 4-balls it will be a pleasure.

Best thing is the guy remembered us from last time. Thats always nice when you get a personal touch.

Anyhow, looking forward to it and will start selecting my wardrobe soon.

Mawgan has already put a nice outfit together.

 

[Leftie]

What tee time have we got? Or have I missed it.

I mentioned the event to a mate of mine who may well be able to make it if we need another one.

 

[medwayjon]

Capt Gray is joining us also.

That makes 7 of us. 1 more to make 2 4-balls.

 

[medwayjon]

10.30 1st tee time Roger so meeting 9.30 for the range/brekkie.

If you bring your pal that will make a nice pair of 4-balls!

Cheers, Jon.

 

[medwayjon]

8 people now, 2 fourballs.

Chippie will be joining us for this event.

Cheers.

 

[chippie]

will be nice to meet you all, what h/c do you all play off?

 

[HomerJSimpson]

I play off 14 but its not about the quality of the gold on these days its about having a laugh. We might put 2 quid in each for the winner to buy us all a drink but thats about it. Lydd is quite a challenging course especially from 2 through to 14 and a nice closing hole

 

[medwayjon]

Possibly upto 9 with lefties mate going to let us know.

I play off 27.

Love Lydd.

 

[Leftie]

Currently struggling off 12.4. Might be up to 12.5 (13) after this w/end medal.

It doesn't really matter though. The main thing is meeting some people that you have played on a few occasions before and those new to the meets. It's like a virtual golf society - old and new friends.

If it were serious golf then MWJ would be playing off about 16, HTL off 14, Homer scratch and I would be off 16 where I rightfully belong .

I'm quite happy about these bandit h/caps however. The winner gets to buy the drinks. Mind you, I've never seen so many dropped shots in the last few holes

Hey Guys the way I played with Mawgan today was pathetic lost 4 balls.
driver and 3 wood right right right.
Until last 2 holes.
If I cant get this sorted, probably too tight a grip, not rolling hands etc I think I would be an embarresment.
Or else just use a rescue all the way to keep it straight.

[medwayjon]

WelshJim may be joining us also, going to get back to me on it.

So 9 at present, possibly 10.

[MVP]

[Leftie]

Errrm

Possibly cloudy with some sunny spells. Should be dry but there is a chance of rain which may be heavy locally with a risk of thunder. Winds light to variable with strong gusts in places. Snow is possible on higher ground but generally the temperature should remain above freezing apart from some areas in the country where it may drop to below 0 degrees C, 32 degrees F.

WEATHER WARNING... There is a 50% chance that we may get some weather

 

[medwayjon]

Its £25 Lewis,

If you could let us know by monday/tuesday that should be fine.

Really looking forward to this one, should be a good crowd of us and a darn good game also.

 

[MVP]

ok mate should be able to tell ya tuesday cheers.

[medwayjon]

We usually just chuck in £5 a corner for the stableford.

Beers? Leave that upto the individual groups?
