Just as an ice breaker before tomorrow, a quick intro

I'm 28 years old and from winlaton mill. I'm getting married in april and have a 3 year old daughter with my fiance.

I work in prudhoe and run a specialist vehicle adaptation company for disabled drivers & passengers. I went to Northumbria uni and finished my degree in 2006 before joining the company I'm with as Business Manager.

I got into golf thanks to my best friend and have been playing for 2 years, but only managed to play every other month, mainly at longhirst. I'm not getting a membership this year as the wedding is costing a fortune, but will be looking/hoping to play every other week.

I'm hoping that by using this forum I can meet new people and try a few different courses before commiting to a membership in the future

Golfstick-I am a member there played on Tuesday and course is struggling after the bad weather.Hopefully it play a bit better tomorrow.Yeah its right by the Tyne and 5 holes run alongside it.

Its a lovely course when the weathers right,tight fairways,great greens.Trying to stay straightish imperative.With winter greens on and 4/5 forward tees it only playing to around 5,200 at minute.

I'm down in Boro and will probably be looking for weekend games a bit further into the year.

Me too mate. Supposed to be having a game with bozza over in darlo soon as well if you fancy it. I know we talked about this before but nothing happened. You played recently?

I haven't swung a club since early November but am intending to hit the course big time as soon as I can. Probably now is I've done something to my back when acting the idiot when drunk. Hoping it's just a muscle pull so I can get back in the game asap.

Game went well. My score wasn't great as I was freezing and hadn't swung a bat properly since November. Also bust open a wound on my finger on the first hole and there was blood everywhere. I was so cold it frozen itself shut though.

The course was canny but was hard on the first 4 holes, then softened a little once in the sunlight.

Kev and Gordon (his brother) were good lads to play with and hope to join them again. Also got a chance to use my new Wilson D-fy irons and was impressed and looking forward to playing alot more.
