Pre Powerplay Event knock?

[Aztecs27]

Just seeing if there's any intrest/scope for this and whether people think this would be logistically doable.

I have the whole day of the 31st off work, so I'm either going to be travelling down the night before or early in the morning, but figured it would be rude to not play as much golf as possible.

18 at The Grove in the morning would be marvellous, but my pockets aren't deep enough

 

[USER1999]

I am playing with Region 3 at my track at roughly nine o clock if you wanted to join us. It is ten minutes from The Grove.

There is another space too, if some one else wants to make up a four.

Very kind of you mate. Consider this a yes from me.

Which track are you at? I'll google map it for directions to find out what time I need to leave home and hope that it doesn't involve too long on the M25. Otherwise I may be calling my mate in Bushey to see if I can crash overnight!

 

[RichardC]

Murph,

If you still have space I will make up your four, if thats ok.

 

[Swinger]

I'm up for a knock if you don't mind me tagging along.

Do you think we will need to allow extra travel time for traffic in the morning around that way?

 

[Aztecs27]

Great! This gives me another chance to figure out how the hell you manage to fit all your golf kit in that ridiculously tiny car!

Beat me to it!!

 

[USER1999]

So it's me, Region 3, Aztecs and Richard C.

Sorry Swinger, I can only sign in 3 playing partners.

I'll book a tee time one week earlier, and let you guys know the start time. I thinking 9 ish, which gives us 4 hours to get round, and then time for some lunch before hitting The Grove at two.

Sounds great. But where are we playing? And what's the green fee?

 

[USER1999]

West Herts golf club, in Watford.

Green fee £21, and it has to be cash, no cards accepted for GF.

 

[Aztecs27]

Cheers mate. Looks like a nice track. Looking forward to it already. Hope we're lucky with the weather.

What's the traffic likely to be like that time of the morning? It's telling me 2 hours from door to door but that involves a stint on the M25 between Slough and Watford. I don't like my odds

 

[USER1999]

There will be traffic, that's for sure. that part of the M25 is never good.

Kitchen should be open for a sandwich (or more) though if you are early.

 

[Aztecs27]

I'm thinking if I can swing it, I'm going to try and crash at my mate's house in Bushey the night before! Don't fancy my chances much the following morning!

 

[bobmac]

Gutted

 

[USER1999]

Sorry Bob.

It'll probably rain anyway.

I hope it snows

No I don't. Have a great day

 

[MarkHK]

Bobmac and swinger, my course is about 25 minutes from the Grove near Dunstable,if you want I would be more than happy to show you around either on the Wednesday or the Thursday morning if you are planning to stay the night after the Powerplay golf.

 

[bobmac]

Thanks for the offer Mark, but sadly, I'm not going to the power play now.

Bum!!

Wish I had clocked this last night. Did have the whole day off until this morning. Will see if I can swing things around again as it would be nice to have a knock beforehand.
Would only be on the Wednesday as will only be going for a day trip.

Many thanks for the offer.

I was thinking of knocking it around Ascot ealry doors to get the juices flowing and all the bad shos out of the way before heading over to the Grove. On the other hand it might just depress me!
