Trump int'l / Carnoustie, April/May 2016

Just hope the weather picks up for you lads as in Dundee its now snowing and the wind blowing a mild zephyr of 20 mph with forecast up to 46 mph in the afternoon, love links golf:thup:

Good, it'll sort the chompers, from the chumps and the champions.......

BTW, rather than look right through the last 10 pages - what is the name of that boss cafe near the Broxden junction in Perth, think its the other side of the A9, though.
 
Hey Gyln, while youre doing nothing. Ive had an idea, it doesnt happen often bear in mind...

How about a sweep of who can go longest without losing a ball (sat an sun trump, mon carnoustie being the qualifying rounds)

Sort it out :) :thup:
 
Bring clothes for every type of weather.

The 1 week ahead forecasts have been wrong nearly every weekend so far this year. In both positive and negative directions. :)

Dave,

I will go the longest without losing a ball as I will let every group through if needed rather than lose a ball :D
 
If this is already in hand or if thought to be a crap idea, please discard the suggestion rather than make me play with an orange ball!!

Do you have everyone attendings mobile number? Set up a what's app group so any updates can be shared quickly. Where people are going for food, beer etc..

I don't mind doing the group if you have a list you could send. I'll do it on the plane rather than speak to D4S and those other nobs

This would imply that I'm not a nob but the others are......result :D

Good idea though, I'm up for that :thup:

Its a good idea, but we want as much traffic on here as poss, so put stuff in here.

Also people are anti-social enough looking at their phones every 2 minutes, and we want people to talk to each other, and make new friends on this trip, not stare into the top of richart's mane of curls, as he checks the latest entries on whatsapp on his new I-phone........or does he still have to put coal in his old Nokia?:rofl:

Social stuff for friday and saturday being checked out, as we speak.:thup:
 
For those who are playing Cruden, and want to laugh at a Liverpool fan, whilst his team slowly dis-integrates before his eyes on the Thursday night:-

http://www.kilmarnockarms.com/

They have BT sport, and will do a sitting for us in the lounge at half time (8.45pm) for food.

Now we need to know numbers so they can accomodate us, and it may be too late to get back to Aberdeen to eat, if you are thinking that, dpending on what time you get off the course.

So, if you can let me know if you want to come, so I can give them numbers, and ideally what main course you want from the lounge bar menu,also.

Put your name on, then copy and paste, please.:thup:

Pete, I'm not committing to anything until you can confirm this place does a decent bottle of Perrier water for my southern colleagues!

Some of them have been known to fall over drunk just standing at the bar and inhaling the fumes :o

I've just checked mate, they do a fine bottle of Peckham spring water.

Saturday night meal option:-

http://www.cumintandooriaberdeen.co.uk/

As recommended by our culinary expert, a man steeped in a knowledge that can only be gained from years of expert opinion forged in the Michelin starred restaurants of Teeside.:p

Currently booked for all 43 of us, but I need to advise them of final numbers in the next 2-3 days.

If someone else wants to organise another option for an Italian or something, if people dont like Indian food, no problem but this is the only option i'm getting involved in.

Please also advise if you arent coming, so I know that the list is definitive, rather than having to chase people up.

I'm willing to pay a deposit myself, to secure the booking, but need a good idea of numbers, so they can arrange the tables, etc.

Again, please copy and paste yourself on the list, along with anyone else from your group, like +1's etc

1. Liverbirdie
2. Scouser
3. Willby

Ta,
 
1. Liverbirdie
2. Scouser
3. Willby
4. D4S
5. Merv
6. Richart

I've added Richart (we all know his copy and paste skills :o ) and Merv, assume the rest of my group will also want to join in (Wookie, Topoftheflops and his +1)

Ta, is this for the saturday curry night, or the Thursday Cruden option?

I'll have to put a heading on it, so I can tell the difference.:thup:
