Do you snore? I've got a twin room, and as you're a fellow Westerham member it seems only fair to offer you the other bed! Let me know if you want to share, mate.

Fundy, I'll probably only get there around 9pm, but The Green Man pub in the village (Little Brickhill) does food all hours (hopefully they're still there, as that's had more landlords than I care to remember!) and it's good, so I would imagine I'll eat there. If not, then La Cucina is just opposite (italian).

I'm up for food and drinks. I'll be coming from either Cambridge or Huntingdon to the B&B so only a 45 min drive so can be at the hotel for whenever. Would be good to have a couple of jars and a bit of banter before the golf.

Should be able to make that 1 more for The White House, single room for me - just waiting for confirmation.

Jeez with everyone staying there I'm locking HID in the car. She's not safe inside!

I think we're planning to grab a bite on the way up having had to fight the rush hour out of Bracknell and then the motorways in the rush hour. I'd rather have a burger and make sure I eat than turn up at 9.00 and find no-one serving

I think im going to book into the Travelodge in Milton Keynes for the night before, and possibly the night of the golf. If people are having a bite to eat and drinkies the night before then I'd love to meet up and get to know some people before the first tee in the morning...Of course, You might not want a Norverner joining in, in which case i'll find a whippet track and and offy that sells brown ale and im sorted for the night...

Don't know what time I'm likely to tip up, but I would imagine around 8-9pm myself. Sat Nav is showing just over 2 1/2 hours from here but I'll see if I can get away from work an hour or so earlier. Eejit is away on his hols at the moment, he's got to drive up from Devon! Will know more once he gets back. But will deffo be up for a pint or two the night before and fancy the idea of an Italian.

Don't forget that the first tee is booked from 8.00am and that the club will be open from 7.00am serving coffee and bacon rolls.
I will plan to get to the course by about 7.30am at the latest to sort out the mornings score cards.

No probs. There's a comfy chair under the stairs for you if you do snore! :D:D:D No money needed, mate. Pay on check-out - £30 each.

Im a member at Aylesbury Vale which is only 10-15 mins away from Woburn and would be happy for anyone who wants to play the day before to join us there. Its not Woburn but its pleasant enough!

Re: "Official" Woburn booking thread....

Bearing in mind we have the first tee booked from 8.00am (which will involve getting to the club by 7.30am at the latest) is there anybody who would prefer a later tee time?
I have had the scorecards sent through from the club already and will be trying to sort out some sort of teeing order over the course of the next week or so.
Also suggest that everybody puts a fiver in on the day to give us some prizes to make it interesting?
24 players will give us £120.00. Maybe £50.00 for the best score over the 2 rounds, £20.00 for the best 18 hole score (winner of the 36 hole prize excluded) and then £30.00 second place and £20.00 third?
Just a suggestion.

Re: "Official" Woburn booking thread....

Although I am not driving from far, apparently the traffic can be poor. I would suggest putting those staying over off first.
