Just signed up as RichRaph. Thanks for a great couple of days. Realy enjoyed to company and banter (not withstanding weird names). I would love to attend next year, so reserve me a place and let's know how to settle up. (Raph)

Welcome to another forum virgin. You can ask to sign up for next year but the Snappers may get together to have you banned.

So when I saw Raph continually looking in the trees on the beaches course, he wasn't looking for his own ball!

Well, not all the time, the difference being when he was in the trees he found his ball, when I was in the trees, it was a little present I left for the squirrels and rabbits to play with.

It's in the diary already. I'm happy to share a Twin Room if anyone fancies rooming with an old Whippersnapper :thup:

Smiffy, hope you've booked your holiday while your nemesis is away for her 'long weekend' :rolleyes:

Welcome on board Raph! :whoo: Looking forward to meeting you again soon & hopefully playing some golf together in the not too distant future. Pleasure being thumped on Sunday. You & Blue In Munich are the Eric & Ernie of the Forum! :rofl:

Open to everybody Dave. As I said in my first post, 40 went this year but if there is enough demand (which it looks like there could be) I can increase this to 48 if necessary.
It does have to be capped at 48 though as we need even numbers to get the two teams. Next stop from there would be 56 but I think that would be pushing it if I'm honest.
Once again, it looks like requests for single rooms is going to exceed supply so I will contact Forest Pines today to find out how many more singles they can let us have.
But again I would ask, please don't put your name down for the sake of it


Cheers for the reply Rob. I've never dropped out of a meet :mad:

Not like that Stu c fella. I'd watch him if he signs up :)

Welcome aboard partner, hope your back has recovered from carrying me until I discovered how the 2 iron worked! :thup: :D

Brilliant response so far lads (and lass). 38 so far. Looks like I may have to book the 8 more spaces if this carries on.

I'll register my interest Rob (single), but will only be able to confirm after the Gainsborough trip in August....As you said I need to be able to fully commit and Gainsborough will prove a good test.

This way i can bring the wife if there are other half's coming as well. they can use the spa while we enjoy the golf. just behave and make allowances for the evening meal

This was in reply to Fish, it might be an easy way to get to play Cooden if its the day after FP. Make a road trip to see a show down south and visit the Nieces and nephews. In London, so recomendations of a nice place to stay please.

Just to confirm.
With the take up so far, it looks like 48 players will be easily achievable, so I have emailed the Hotel to confirm the extra numbers.
Also, I have requested an increase in the number of single rooms. We now have 24, with 12 twins being booked.
After suggestions by a couple of others, I have also requested that the Monday round finishes on the Pines course, as the 9th green is overlooked by the clubhouse. This will enable the early finishers to watch the other groups finish their rounds and should ramp up the excitement a little, especially if next years result is as close as this years.
So this means we are going to have two teams of 24. It's become a monster!!
:D:D:D
