Hi all,

I have just sat down in the press room at Augusta. All set up for a great week. Just about to get out and have a look around the course for first impressions. It's already very busy, there has been quite a bit of rain overnight but the fairways are unreal.

I've brought my clubs just incase!!!!

Speak soon

Nothing like rubbing it in is their Alex. :D

I just got back from a game with RGDave and am thiunking of going back out this aft but the rain has just made an appearence.

We want to know all you do, as early as possible. Especially from the practice rounds, I am leaving it late (wed) to place my bets.

Good call on the clubs!!!

Awesome! If there were such a thing as a jealousy scale I'd be off the top of it! :)

What have you got planned whilst you're there?

HTL = Legend

Just need to stock the fridge up with beers now. How great aswell that it's over easter weekend, I can stay up drinking on sunday night watching all the coverage without having to worry about work.

I know BBC cover Amen corner but does any other channel cover the whole event? or shall i say follow tiger round?

Alex If you see Michael Bannon would you tell him we (members back at Bangor) are all well impressed with his round at augusta, the rest of us can only dream of being there, never mind shooting what he did on the practice round and good luck to Rory.
