Morning all,

There is 6 weeks or so left before we all walk the fairways of Wallasey for our big final. So can I please urge everyone to get their matches in unless injury prevents and get your deposits in to Birchy.

The final day will only be the success we hope for if everyone commits to it and gets there games in.

Best of luck and I hope to see you all at Wallasey

I'm sure you've all seen this message a few times now but I make no apologies, the success of the OIM relies on the games getting played.
 
centuaryg5 or vikingman fancy this sunday? ill pm you guys tonight if you don't see this message! let me know lads!

Just waiting on big Dan's latest fitness test. I think Podge played him, must have shook his hand a bit vigorously and he's sidelined again!!! :)

Lol. Sorry guys. I'm just waiting on the after effects of the PRP injection to dissipate, then I'll know whether it was successful or not. I played Steve just before the injection and got properly and deservedly mullered. I should know in the next 7 days. If the elbow is still too painful then I'll have to offer everyone a walkover. The worse news is that if the PRP is not successful then I'll be forced to quit. The only other option is surgery, and that is not something I'm willing to undergo at this stage.

Anyway, I'll keep everyone updated as soon as I know.

Cheers Gary.. It's just so frustrating. 90% of the time it feels just like a niggly injury, but the rest of the time it's a show stopper. The kids have even stopped asking to be picked up because they know how much it hurts.. To be 100% honest, if it wasn't for you guys, I'd have given up 3 months ago....:(

Keep going mate, hope the non-invasive option works well.

Don't worry Dan we have something in place if you can't play the games, you get yourself sorted first and foremost
 
Cheers fellas. You'll just have to ignore me for a while. I'm obviously becoming a bit of a whiny, self pitying little girl. Was feeling good earlier this week so tried a few balls at the range. BIG mistake. Now I'm back to where I started. :(

Would complete rest (from golf) for a few months, say March/April next year not help? Sounds lime a nightmare, feel ok one day then can't do anything the next. Hope all goes well mate

If the arm doesn't improve over the next few days then that's what my consultant is going to tell me to do. He did say that I would probably be Ok to return to golf soon, but he will probably change that advice.:(

The big problem for me now is that if I leave it till April, then that's when my Club subs are due. After wasting the last 2 years, I'm not sure I could justify another grand based on a possibility that it may have healed. I did that this year and it didn't work out...

I mean, just how fragile do you have to be that Golf is considered an extreme sport? :D

Dan, don't go hanging your bats up mate.
Consider doing what 6inchcup suggests.
And if you aren't a member for next year, you know you'll get loads of games organised with us fools round the NW.

Cheers mate. I'm not sure that I can blame the Goat Track, but a lengthy rest is the best idea.. I'm gonna contact the Club this week to enquire about a medical extension...

The bats will be kept mate, no worries about that :D
Looks like social games with the NW mafia will be my best option?? ;)
 
Good stuff :thup:
I hurt my back pretty bad last winter and spoke to our place about options if I couldn't play for a bit.
Got told I could suspend my membership for up to 12 months if needs be (I didn't after all), but it was good to have the option.
Might be leaving there too, so if you accept my offer of a game, you might not need to worry about Preston breaking you again ;)
Hope it all goes well and you're back hacking it round with the rest of us.

Yep, you'll always find a game in the NW Dan, enough lads to take a few bob of you, with that vanity handicap. :whoo:

Where are you thinking of going to Andy, surely most are a step down from Preston.
