North West Meet

[forefortheday]

The sun is shining and we are back to proper tees.

So ladies and gents I think it's time to arrange a Forum Meet somewhere in the Northwest.

Firstly who's up for it and secondly any course suggestions?

 

[NWJocko]

I'm up for it and happy to play anywhere to be honest!

 

[gjbike]

Hillside would be nice

 

[gjbike]

Happen not at £95 a round, maybe Pleasington or clitheroe bit cheaper

 

[Yerman]

Depending on date I'm interested, ?Worsley or North Manchester and invite the poor folk on the wrong end of the M62 across for a wupping?

 

[vig]

date permitting, i'd be interested

 

[centuryg5]

date permitting, i'd be interested

ditto.

 

[TonyN]

i'll keep a loose eye on this one. If the price is right and its not to far away, I might join you all for a catch up!

 

[colint]

Date permitting I'm in

 

[splashtryagain]

Yep i'd be up for this - probably same as everyone else but got a few greenfree vouchers to be used (5 of them to be precise) if they would be useful. Weekend or weekday? Unless school hols weekend only real option for me. Are we looking to go central to the folk going?

 

[forefortheday]

Right poll up my choices would be Weekend and Cheshire.

I'll compile a list, my only preference is for somewhere without a hotel attached after playing the dullness that is Portal recently!

Lets narrow it down and then I'll do some hunting around/take locals advice for a suitable venue!

 

[splashtryagain]

Is there a reason for no lancashire vote?
Which Portal did you play, I find the one without the hotel is much better!

 

[tincup]

I could be interested in this dates permitting also

The Championship Course with the Macdonald Hotel? Is there another one?

Er Geography used to be a strong point of mine!

It's only indicative so apologies and of course Lancashire is an option.

PS I Can't edit the Poll.

 

[splashtryagain]

Forefor - yeah it has 2 courses - one at the same site as the hotel - the championship, which is long and a bit dull. The other is just off the a49 about half a mile away and is the premier course which while not as long is a much more interesting and better test of golf. I'll fill in the poll as Cheshire (in laws lve next to portal so can leave the amily there for the day) but would prefer Lancashire (don't have to lug family around). Thanks for getting the ball rolling by the way.

As long as its relatively early start, and not at the other end of the north west, I'm definitely interested.

There are a few courses around the worsley area, which is good access for most people. There is also Beacon Park, but I think wherever it is, its best to make sure the greens have recovered and the course is all on full tees.

 

[Qwerty]

I'd be up for this date permitting,and don't mind travelling.

Fleetwood is a good links course,reasonably priced and I reckon we could get on at weekend, the only downside is its location,middle of nowhere.

 

[BramallMac]

I'd be up for this. A weekday would be better, as HID doesn't let me play both days in the weekend, and Saturday is comps day.

Beacon Park is my home course Steve, if you want a game send us a PM.

I will extend that offer to all you good folk of the forum but I won't be putting it forward as an option for this meet as it's likely work will be starting soon on a Par 3 course and some course changes/improvements.

Bramall that little picture bring back memories!

 

[BramallMac]

Likewise. Although I am now old and bald, it reminds me that I did once rock.
