Good call, was going to go James Bond esque along the beach but pushing the trolley might be tough through the sand:D
 
Re: GM Champion of Champions Knockout Scotland

all joking aside the relationship between the clubs had been getting better, but there's been a few things from that side of town that have put things back.

did you notice there was no reciprocal when the 4 day opens were on?

Yea things seem to be good, certainly when I was over for the Ontario(which I never got to play in the end, taxis :angry:) everyone was friendly and I haven't heard anything bad from anyone sensible, only from the usual stalwarts who insist anything they aren't involved with isn't as good as something they are.

I think the reason for the lack of reciprocal is that your 4day was the week after our 5day this year, which was the week we had set aside for coring the greens so your guys would only be able to play tues-fri on cored greens and a course which had been hacked up the week previous, whereas ours would have been able to play your course in manicured condition right before the biggest comp of the year, NGC would definitely have the worst of that deal. That being said, if things do sour between the two I'd point the finger straight at our manager, he seems to have the people skills of Putin

it didn't go down well the year they first did the hollow tine all our guys turned up to play to only find all the greens in a bit state and all your guys had the best of our course. not to mention someone had made a issue of some of the guys using the practice ground and sent a load of snotty letters out.

If nobody minds I'd like to offer my ploughing services.
