A friend of mine runs a society meeting at Swinley Forest on Thursday 22nd September. In order to keep the day for future years, he needs to make sure we have enough people. So, we are looking for a few more folks to join us.

We can take about 20 more which would put the numbers well over the minimum Swinley would like to see.

Details are:

Bacon roll, tea & coffee on arrival (from about 7am)

Tee off 08:15 - usually a 2 tee start - need to drive out to the 10th tee

Full 3 course carvery lunch (Jacket & Tie required)

Free to play another round if you wish as there is no limit on how much golf you play. In the past I have started on 10, pleayed 18, then done a loop of 6 or so holes before returning for a late lunch (Dinning room closes at 3pm).

Approx 5pm Prize giving with normally a short show from a comedien. The society comprises mainly show artists/comediens.

The bad news is the day is not cheap, £150!

Please let me know if you would like to attend.
 
Can you put me down as a probable please Anthony - I just need to move an appointment on Monday and I should be good to go.

I would probably favour fitting in a second 18 if theres anyway of doing that

Hi Simon,

Last year there were several from Camberley Heath that had a second round so I am sure there will be an opportunity.
 
Hi Anthony, please put me down as a probable, I will confirm on Monday, when I can get my holiday signed off, but I'd love to play Swinley.

Thanks
 
Any one else like to play? A couple of folks have dropped out taking the numbers below the minimum of 30 that Swinley require, so if you are interested, now is your chance.
 
Any other day that week and I would be a definite for this but the date clashes with the lovely Mrs S's birthday so I cannot.

I am sure it will be a lovely day - Swinley is really lovely.
 
Just a quick note to thanks those folks for coming along yesterday, I trust you all enjoyed it.

Even though I did not play very well, there was no way the course could be blamed, it was in great condition. The lunch made it difficult, but not impossible, to complete a second 18 in the afternoon :)

When I hear the date for next year's event, I will post it on here so those that missed out have a chance to put the date in their diaries before it fills up.
 
Thanks Anthony, a really fantastic day. Great weather, wonderful golf course, bacon roll, brilliant lunch, 36 holes of golf, and sandwiches and cakes to finish. Loved every minute of it, and will be back next year.
I think I was roughly on handicap in the pm, but like you, was rubbish in the morning. The greens speeding up helped though!

Nicely summed up Murph - says it all and thanks once again Anthony.
 
Thanks Anthony for making this opportunity available to us, like one of the chaps said "the best £150 I have spent on golf".

Was a magical place to spend the day, with almost perfect weather and the course in great shape.

Thanks to Murph and PhilTF for their excellent company, I played very average but still enjoyed the day immensely.
