Will see you there then. Very happy and surprised to be chosen. Looks like I'm going to have to up my game and shoot sub 80 on the day. Hopefully the Ryder Cup will put me in the right frame of mind.

Really not sure but not cheap I would think. Probably about an hour or so from the airport.

I will see you both there as well as I am very happy to be in as well.

Hopefully the work I did with Bob last week will be paying dividends,

Not really done enough this year but handicap is down from 27.2 to 24.9, won a couple of medals and a team honours board comp but my PYB personal target was to break 90 and though I set a new PB of 94 I've not achieved my goal...yet! Have a great day everyone :)

I'm in as well!

GB72 I might well be up for a game on the Sunday if thats ok but am away in Weymouth on the Saturday night so might break the journey and stop with a mate just north of Brum rather than coming all the way in one hit. Can I let you know next week please?

No problem, I can sign in 3 people at £15 quid a man and was looking to go out about 1.00ish as there is a junior tournament in the morning. As I live 2 minutes from my course people can let me know as last minute as they want up to and including 'I am at your course do you fancy a game'.

Looks like I'm too late for this as places have been awarded, probably just as well as I've had a year of mediocrity.

Started well dropping a shot within the first month to get to my lowest ever of 11 and thoguht I might have a real breakthrough year and maybe get to 10 or even single figures but since then I've either buffered or got 0.1s back. No PBs and no competition wins.

The only things of any note I can remember are acouple of closest to the pin wins and another tee shot to within a foot.

I played a society match at karsten lakes on saturday (came 2nd 33 points ,off 18), rough is far worse than normal. greens and fairways are like normal, not the best, but a fantastic place.
Doncaster airport is the nearest- 20 mins
East mids - an hour

I'm 20 mins away but HID is adamant nobody is having spare room!

saw all your fine achievements and resorted to begging... I'm not proud

Nevertheless, I still have mediocre chipping to aim at, and Captain's prize on Saturday to look forward to though the course is playing like a US open venue at the moment (rock hard greens ca 12 on the stimp) - I'm terrified !

Seems my win with Smiffy was not enough to qualify.:(












Only joking, couldn't make the day, but good luck to all that will be playing.
