Southwest Regional qualifier.

Light rain from 11am then heavy rain 12 & 1pm fading out through 2pm, so with a midday tee time, were getting wet boys rain.gif
 
Tony, I'm looking at the weather forecast for Burnham and it says it's going to rain on Sunday afternoon. Shurely shome mishtake? We all understood that you were booking last year's weather again? ;)

Yes sorry mate its a shame because all week its been looking good.
Least it will be warmish and the rain wont be all round.

It will separate the men from the boys.
I see Fish is so excited he cant sleep:one:
 
Guys, sorry to do this but I'm a doubt for tomorrow. Played this morning and hit a tree root I couldn't see, now I can hardly move my wrist:(
I'll see if it loosens up overnight and make a decision in the morning if thats OK Tony?

I have a possible reserve I need to replace you if I can as it will mess tees up.
Let me pm Kozmos to see if his mate is still up for it.
Knowing in the morn is to late to replace you.
 
Ok am waiting for Sainthacker to get back to me on wether theres any chance of him making it
tomorrow.

If he cant I was thinking of grabbing a player from the last group and playing
him in the first group then making the last 2 groups 4 balls if that is allowed.
Wont know until tomorrow but just all make sure your there prompt,thx.
 
I will be there 1030/ 11. So if any one sees a fat bloke wearing tartan trousers come grab me :-)

Nope, same as when Fish said he'd be the good looking one ( :rofl:), you're still going to have to be a bit more specific! Just sorting out the gear now and the IJP trousers are looking like the pair for tomorrow.
 
Its finally here.
Drive carefully to all those that are driving and look forward to seeing you all.

Don't forget your prizes if your pledging one.
Results up later and taking the camera.
 
Another well oiled organised meet, nice to put some more faces to names, as for the golf, I'm saving myself for Blackmoor :P

To confirm to those extracting the urine, YOTF is my qualifying rounds this year at my new club where I intend to reduce my handicap to an acceptable standard, winter golf is work in progress, that's my excuse for playing like a fish with fin rot today :P

Great company though today and the banter was top notch, as it should be.
 
Well just arrived home after what was another great day out at Burnham and Berrow golf club.
15 of us braved the weather and everything a top links course course could throw at us.
5 x 3 balls off the yellow tees plenty tough enough for most.

Thanks to everyone for arriving in plenty of time and paying so prompt.
Thanks to all those who bought prizes some were over generous.

Great news Robobum ive just found the bottle of red wine I had for a prize.

Well as you will see from the results it was a tough test.
Already some will be pleased to know the "year of the Fish" is already Floundering
and others have already skated to victory.:whoo:
Also the first £10 of the Pokerjoke vs Liverpoolphil for HFH has left Phils pocket.:ears:
I hope everyone had a good day and the golf didn't get anyone down.

Great day,great company so always a pleasure to organise.
 
Tony, thank you for today - thankless task organising these things, job well done.

Thanks to Gary (still the smoothest swinger in town) and Josh (fair play - 4hr trip down from Leeds!) for the good company.

Lucky it was a calm day or things could have been tricky out there!! ;)
 
Not long back myself. Apologies for rudely shooting straight off at the end but its a horrible slow journey back to Soton at the best of times and I needed to be back by 7:30 at the latest.
Big thanks to Tony for organising today. Its a superb course and one I look forward to playing again. But those greens, they make Augusta look pedestrian! All in all a thoroughly enjoyable day, some good golf, some indifferent golf, and some truly appalling golf played, but a great laugh all the same playing with Tony and Fish.
 
Enjoyed the day but not the wind and rain. I thought we would be playing the back 9 with the wind after the struggles on front. But the wind had other ideas. Only pic I took when the sun came out.
