Played the machrahanish championship course on friday was a decent course, greens were quite slow tho, nice test and some beautiful views, dunes is next I think
We couldn't have asked for a better WEDNESDAY :p, sunshine, shorts and shirt sleeves pity I played crap as usual losing 3 balls, still we got round in 3 hours 20 mins :cool:
 
I drove from glasgow myself and wasnt to bad at all, all roads open, on the way back home I got caught up in a road closure for around 30mins, (tarring the road)
 
Did you have any trouble getting there? Hearing about landslips at the rest and be thankful, as per usual!
No problems except for a 10 minute delay on the way back due to road re- surfacing between Tarbert and Machrihanish. Lovely drive for passengers very scenic.
We stayed in a B&B in Tarbert about 50 minutes from Machrihanish, that split the journey up there and back, plus there's a couple of pubs and restaurants. The hotel next to the Champion couse wasn't yet open , but it might be now.

Surpisingly from Uddingston it only took us about 3 hours each way'

The road problems ATM are just due to the heavy rain, should be cleared by the time you guys are going.

The 2 courses back onto each other but they're separated by the airport so its maybe 5 to 10 minute drive between them, the sat nav goes haywire. It took us to Machrihanish Dunes instead of the Machrihanish Championship course, where we got directions.
If you don't know the course BUY A STROKE SAVER, it'll save you a few balls and strokes (y)
 
Very sorry to have had to drop out of this trip, was really looking forward to it :cry:
 
Avon skin so soft use to work quite well, not sure but I heard they changed the formula,but at least you'll smell nice :D , Smidge or Jungle formula.
