Weekend rounds in London area

[Deleted member 1418]

WCGC / LSGC sounds good to me, although definitely cannot do Thursday 10 December.

Compton - Wanstead would probably take me about 45 mins in the old jallopy so not too bad a trek.

I'm off the first week of 2010 so maybe 7th January?. TO be fair it drains pretty well and there are rarely temporaries (not sure there ever were in my time)

7 January is fine with me.

7 January is fine with me.

Should be ok with me too

 

[SammmeBee]

Which course?

 

[Deleted member 1418]

I do not mind. Parking is easier at LSGC, but the car park shuts at dusk, so unless we tee off pretty early, could be a problem. Therefore might be best to start over at WCGC.

Surely if we were to knock off about about 11.00am we would be back to the car park before dusk???
As I say I am deffo up for this as long as I am not driving over 50 miles to play on either temporary greens or a course that's bone hard and covered in frost

I would've thought that even as visitors, we'd get away before 11 so as you say, dusk shouldn't be a problem. Here are the link to the LSGC and WCGC websiteS

Green fee £25. Don't think we'll have problems with temporary greens.

Right, i'm sticking a red jumper on my christmas list!

 

[compton77]

Just thought i'd bump this thread and see who's still up for the 7th?

 

[HomerJSimpson]

I'm still up for it. Got the red jumper and might sneak up and see if I can get a round in beforehand as its at least 10 years since I last played there.

 

[Deleted member 1418]

Yes, I am still up for this - have the day booked off and looking forward to it (lets hope the snow and ice will have melted by then!) Plus I have the new Callaways to lose in the timber!!

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Who is definitely playing on the 7th? What time are we going to get there and tee off

 

[Deleted member 1418]

I am definitely playing. Have we decided which course yet? 10.30 - 11.00 tee off sound ok? Am happy to do earlier.

 

[HomerJSimpson]

I'm happy starting either side but would prefer Wimbledon Common if possible. I'm easy on the time

 

[Deleted member 1418]

Ok, Wimbledon Common side - haven't played the course from that side before. Shall we say 10.30?

 

[compton77]

Yep, i'm still up for this, either time is fine for me..

 

[rickg]

Is there space for another or have you filled the slots? I'm free on the 7th

 

[Deleted member 1418]

rickg - so far I believe there is me, Compton and Homer so there is space for you. Tried to phone the pro at Wimbledon Common today but no joy so e-mailed them instead. Haven't heard anything back yet so hopefully tomorrow I will have confirmed tee booking.

If anyone else is interested, please let me know and I'll arrange.
