No problem Ian, or any one else.
PM me and we'll take it from there.
£25 on weekend and £20 in the week.
As for the 4th July - I should be fine, just let me know where and how much.
Thanks,
John.

I'm in ! If it's against a Jack, I'll play anywhere and anytime !!! 
I live very close to the Vale Hotel or Cottrell Park courses (The Mackintosh is suppsoed to be nice, I've only played the Button ), but would definitely be up for this anywhere really.
Keep me posted on venues etc, the weekend of July 4/5 is good with me.

OK then this is starting to look good! 
Don't think it would be a good idea if me and Gustavo were on the same side do you???

I'd demand that we we're on opposite sides, out of principal !!

could look at any courses that offer 2fore1 vouchers?
I think Cottrell park do this, they also have had £60 for a fourball offer running, not sure of exact details.
Vale is ok - lakes course better option - but weekend is likely to be really busy as it's part of an hotel complex. (it's also a tough son of a beach at times).

2-fore-1 list.

woodlake park - a bit out of the way, but if 2-fore-1 available it's a superb course, tough in parts both physically and some brutal holes.

Cottrell Park offers.

Woodlake Park looks lovely, I've been up that neck of the woods when fishing at the resevoir.
I think we should use one of the following as the venue, I'm not that fussed as to which, but location and price are probably the two main contributing factors :
Alice Springs
Bryn Meadows
Cottrell Park
Southerndown
The Vale Hotel
Celtic Manor
Woodlake Park
Raglan Park
Dinas Powys
Radyr
Creigiau
St. Pierre
Royal Porthcawl
Pyle and Kenfig
I've only played The Lakes course at The Vale, and The Button course at Cottrell Park but these are the courses in South Wales that I'd like to get around. I'm guessing that some of these course will be out of our price range for the forum meet (Porthcawl costs about £120 I think )

Did you play The Button ? I thought it was alright, I've only played it twice, once in drizzle, and the other it was about 0' Celsius ! I'd have enjoyed it more on a sunny afternoon.
The Mackintosh is supposed to be more of a challenge and more pleasing on the eye.

Played the Mackinstosh.
Some decent holes, and some a bit forgettable to be honest!
Decent value for money though

Been on the 2fore1 web page and as far as I can see the following are the only clubs to accept vouchers on the weekend. Quite a lot only take them through the week.
ALICE SPRINGS
ABERDARE
MONMOUTH
VALE
WOODLAKE PARK
MERTHYR TYDFIL
TREDEGAR PARK
So going by what Gustavo says maybe Woodlake would be good?
Mind you he supports Cardiff so his judgement is prob suspect!
But another thing to consider is that if we get numbers confirmed early enough, we may get deals if there are enough of us??

Just thought it need pointing out that Callaway John is completely deluded and still a bit carried away by his teams over-achievement this season. They should brace themselves for a relegation battle next season !
I've got about 5 2fore1 vouchers we can use, looking forward to this meet now !!!

Seems like Woodlake, Alice Springs or the Vale might be a good shout then!
We're getting there guys!
The Vale is gonna be expensive tho I'd imagine? I'm getting the idea Woodlake might be the best shout here from what Gustavo and Johng say? Shall we settle on that for the 4th of July? At least we can get planning and book up etc?
Gustavo I hate to say this but you may be right about next season, especially as it looks like Roberto could well go to Wigan!

Played Dewstow today and have to say it was superb! Lovely course (we played the Valley) good welcome and good grub after! Cost was £26 each. Course was a good test but not mega difficult and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Another contender?

Hi Guys!
Going to play Dewstow GC this week which could be an ideal venue for our get together as its only about 10 or 15 mins from the severn bridge! Within striking distance for all I thought? July 4th would be fine for me too HTL what about the rest of us?
I live two miles, if that, from Dewstow and have played both courses over the years and use the range a lot as well as it's so close. The courses are nice and it's a nice club.
As for July 4th, we have a board comp at the Celtic that day so will be involved in that which is a shame as I could have paired up with Gustavo and we could have taken on the Jacks, will have to make the next meet. I could try to get a day at the Celtic,(not 2010) I'm sure a couple of mates could sign in a few of you for guests discount if needed.

Squire, the 4th isn't set in stone yet, maybe we can do the weekend after. I'm up for a bit of Jack-whipping, CallawayJohn and A N Other Peg-Seller v The Squire and Gustavo, sounds great !!!!
To be honest any Saturday is shady for me, Sunday would be much much easier.
Dewstow looks nice indeed, I'll play anywhere as long as it's convenient for everyone to attend.

Gustavo, all my fears have come true and Roberto has jumped ship (well almost) for bloody Wigan!
Didn't think he'd do it, but like I said before Wigan have a big pull on him as they brought him here from Spain. Can't see who we'll get to replace him that's gonna have the same football philosophy either? Next season is looking like a nightmare already! Scotland, Bodde, Rangel, Gomez etc playing for Wigan next year??? All bets off on that one!

Rumour has it Fulham are prepared to go big on Scotland after his performances particularly against them in the cup
