So no phones to be used as GPS devices on course? Going to be lost without my app.

I was thinking @@@@@@@ no gps on the course, my appalling golf will be even worse

Shame about the hole closure, but I can confirm the breakfast is fantastic. Might.be worth checking if there is any dress code for breakfast as it’s served in the main dining room? They certainly wont allow spike free shoes etc.
The closed hole is the one that plays towards the Princes lodge from memory. Only know as I almost took out a window with my approach last year :whoo:

Shame, it's a great hole and I'm fairly sure I've parr'd it each time out there

You sure those pars have not included a lucky bounce of the roof of the lodges?
Funny I actually think it is one of the holes on the back 9 that does not live up to the stunning view of all of the holes on the front 9. It is all relative, but 13 and to a lesser degree 15 are the holes that fall into that bracket. Don't get me wrong, both very good golf holes, just feel they lack the rugged links look of the other holes.
Just checked the weather and its saying sun all day on Saturday and Sunday before the Kent trip. No doubt then we are on for snow and hail then.

Aye, it’s looking like it’ll be ideal conditions for the Northern Boys as it looks like it’ll be an Easterly so pack your thermals & hand-warmers.... no Fish, the commercial ones!! 😜

I am praying that forecast is wrong as I don't do cold very well.
For RCP on Monday according to netweather its max temp is going to feel like -8

Bring it on - just found a micromesh base layer set on Saturday reduced from £59 to £16. Wore them yesterday and was too hot.

All paid Simon, looking forward to it :thup:
Any news on the draw, I see your old mucker ChrisD has got in first with the draw for RCP. Mind you, he will probably forget he's done it tomorrow......

Got that one sorted with a really clever plan - got them to pay it direct into my bank account 🤑🤑

Very wise. Just don’t start giving out your bank account details to all those emails your getting from daughter of a Prince from Nigeria, as they target people such as yourself....

BIM will no doubt do the draw after Chelsea have put 6 past Barca. We could be waiting some time

Over to you Simon, just put mine up.
Stranger things have happened, just not very often :rofl:
But there's only one team in South London with a European Cup, and it ain't yours. :ears:

Will sort it tomorrow night after work as off out with family for a meal shortly.
However, I’ve unfortunately just had a worrying call from RSG warning that there is a very strong likelihood that they will be shut due to frozen greens. They have a “zero tolerance†policy to this and were shut all of last weekend despite the forecast having only shown as low as 1 degree.
This is likely to be the highest daytime temp as of Thursday onwards with much lower during the night so I can only think we will be called off.
The secretary has said that he will call me again on Thursday and thinks he will be able to predict pretty much what the situation will be.
They are happy to offer a full refund at any point from Thursday up until the day so those of us that are down there anyway will be able to hang around and see if we want but if anyone is travelling just for RSG and they say it is very likely to be shut then we can get it sorted out sooner.
He did also mention the possibility of being able to get us a deal at Princes - not sure how anyone feels about that.
Apologies for the bad news and the rambling post (am on phone). Hope that’s covered everything and any questions just ask away.

I guess they are very cautious with the greens and understandably so.
Be cheeky and ask if we can come over in the summer for the same rate
