[chrisd]

hi chris,

i'd be up for this, having been away for H4H have been looking for an opportunity to make a "forum meet" debut and put a few faces to names.

bit late to the party so no problem if i'm too late.

It should be ok Badger, I shall be asking for definites and deposits soon

 

[Deleted member 1418]

Myself and Blundell are definites Chris.

 

[Oddsocks]

I'm already booked at Deal, as I believe is Pieman.

Chrisd, I'm a definite.

 

[Blue in Munich]

Thinking particularly of those travelling, but open to all, how about a game Sunday afternoon down that way, maybe followed by a curry……… Any takers?

 

[Deleted member 15344]

So where is everyone staying the night ?

Deal or Dover ?

Merv and I will hopefully be playing 3rd round of the Hockley winter foursomes in the morning but def up for beer and curry in the evening :thup:

Both

But they are only a few miles apart so not a problem to meet up.

I only go to Dover to see if I can spot my hub caps!

Never played a links course before... so will toss my name in. 10 days before big birthday, so might get dispensation from the Mrs to go and play.

Without reading the full thread, have we decided when and where and how much..

Sounds like an excellent idea, Deal is a bit far for me to to travel in the morning so I'll be looking to stay over the night before. And if you're staying over, well, an extra round of golf plus curry & beers in the evening are all mandatory aren't they? :thup:

 

[mashleyR7]

I'd be up for a game somewhere on the Sunday. I'd be happy to host people at Ashford which is on the way down to deal. Once you get past the surrey/sussex/north kent border there isn't many good courses. Mostly just Ok courses. Ashford is good though, if you don't mind a bit of motorway noise (we're just of the M20 J9)

Top man... Might look to stay down too.. Let me know if people are block booking a travelodge/hilton somewhere

 

[cookelad]

Thinking about it Chris, I don't know why I'm saying pencil me in when we all know I'm going to be there!

 

[Deleted member 1418]

Blundell and I are staying in the King's Head in Deal on the Sunday night and therefore up for curry and beer that evening. We are looking at travelling down early Sunday and playing Princes - might as well overload on the links golf!

 

[mashleyR7]

Have you seen my note above about two holes being seriously reduced in legth and one on a temp greenw while they finished to flood defences. Hope you're getting a good discount on the green fee, luckily I played it for free so wasn't too fussed.

Yes, but haven't confirmed anything with Princes yet - enquired via e-mail - so could change our minds and look elsewhere. Will see what they say when they get back to me. Useful intelligence to have though when I do speak to them!!

 

[mashleyR7]

The holes are on the Dunes 9 so you could get 9 on each of the Shore and Hymilays but the Hyms isn't very good.

I liked the look of Littlestone if we could get on there. Could get there for mid day ish. Was looking at Princes as well, but doesn't seem to get a great review on the forum.
