thats 3 of us then. Not sure if Gordon is planning on coming, or if he'd prefer an afterwork game so will wait and see what he says

Just wanted to thank SteveW86 for hosting this weekend - while the golf itself wasn’t great, I definitely enjoyed my round at Stoneham.

I thought out held up very well considering the weather over the past weeks, and it is clear that in the Summer it’ll be in very good condition... Not sure I could play there week in week out as a member though, I think it would beat me up a bit (but maybe you get used to it).

Also, I should thank MikeJohnChapman for his patience as he played pretty well (Highlight being hitting his tee shot to 3 foot on the 230y par 3 7th), and spent a disproportionate amount of time helping search the heather for my ball.

Interesting.

Our work Society is due to play there this Thursday but I understand that the course is closed today after a bit of rain (at least here in Swindon) yesterday.

Trolley ban likely to be in force too, so the prospect of carrying for 36 holes isn't too promising, especially given the comments on here recently about it being a hard walk, especially the 18th. Lets hope the rain stays away now and they lift that before Thursday!!

You'll be lucky. It's forecast for rain and more rain tonight and tomorrow darn sarf.

Unfortunately it rained all day on Sunday and has rained all day today so an already wet course will have suffered today. With rain forecast all day tomorrow, I doubt it will be open tomorrow. Although frustrating, it is best for the course if its not being trampled in the rain.
