Anyone fancy playing around the Pool let me know.

I'm free most weekends Saturday is the best day for me.

Usually play here...........

FFTD i'm always up for a round mate. just pm me or put it up on this page.

I'd be keen - come the good weather. I expect TonyN would come along if he's not out with the Whippets.

Keep me in mind and PM me once the arctic conditions have gone!

i'd be interested in the spring/summer.

 

[gjbike]

once the weather picks up just pm me

 

[RGuk]

We are getting quite a nice little enclave up in the NW!

Roll on the spring....

 

[forefortheday]

Thanks for the responses gents!

Hows about the last Saturday in Feb the 28th?

We could play the Beacon, it's £17 on a Saturday but is very hilly so if people fancy a gentler round any suggestions are welcome.

Sounds like we've got a few fair weather golfers in the ranks. Come on lads get a jumper or waterproofs on and a round of golf sorted!

hello there tony ,

just thinking it would be great to organise a comp at a local course between the north west members .... if we can get enough of us we could probably get a special deal for the whole day , obviously it would have to be in the summer ,

i dont know how easy this would be or indeed how many would be up for it to make it worthwhile ....

just a thought guy's

tony , i should be available for a bash on the 30th or 31st jan or anybody else who fancies it .....

I organised a get together in Preston last year and had 8 attendees. I would think another one in this area would be even better supported in 2009.

Count me in when the weather picks up after Feb.

I'm not a fair weather golfer. Head greenkeeper will back me up on this ("you're the idiot that was still out on the course in that?")
I do however have
Belfry next week. Goswick Mid Feb, Smiffy's cross forum and a few other away days pencilled in including HTL's Celtic manor jolly.

I normally work Saturday's so that would be a none starter until the daylight hours get longer.

Around Manchester would suit me but date also needs to suit.

Isn't the de vere course around manchester (i forget the name)?

 

[evita4]

and I bet you were still in polo shirt and sleeveless top eh Dave

 

[vig]

Where YOU been, gloria ?

No I had a sleeveless shower top on. Less to get wet and dry out afterwards.

You back in circulation now?

 

[TonyN]

I can find someone to have the whippets!

Defo up for it, ya know me! Me and FFTD played in -7 NYE.

Think we will have some really sucessful meets this year in the N.West. I hope the weather is good to us though!

Andy, welcome back! we missed you! guess what I did the other week, Topped my driver in the big lake. O how I chuckled!

 

[gjbike]

Sorry lads due to being at Goswick links the week before got to take HID out on the saturday feb 28

 

[evita4]

You guys will all have to come up to my new club in the Spring.

Actually, would probably make sense to move this back a little being so close to Goswick.

Thinking about it, I would struggle to make this date too.

 

[forefortheday]

Ok any date suggestions?

And any ideas on format?

Fancy doing something a bit different from the usual

 

[RGuk]

I'm not exactly a fair weather player, but I don't tempt fate! Late Feb (3rd week) is one of the most popular weeks for snow. The weather usually takes a turn for the good around mid-March, so I say look at the end of March.

I think it would be great to "invent" an interesting format....something that means a 10 on the 1st hasn't ruined the chance of contributing!

Something like stableford where we team up in 2s or 4s (or even more) and take the "best" nett score/points for each hole acheived, making ONE card.
