When are you cooking it Scott. You'll have to post up some pictures.

You looked really nervous opening that bag mate. The way the bag was sealed I had a feeling there was something mad in there like a Hamster! :)

It weighed a fair bit so i was thinking something was gonna jump out too! Ive looked up the recipe to make it as it should be done so im gonna have a go in the week :) Will post up some pictures of how it goes. Ive asked the missus to cook it but she wont touch it so anything can happen if im cooking it!
 
It was the second hole that was corrected by whoever checked it as it was down as 6 for 2. Ive checked it again and it comes to 33 points total.


Ok batman, I'll take your word for it, thanks again. Loved the day

If we scored as per the card and not the alterations I scored 31 then ;)

Yeah it was a good day and everybody seemed to enjoy it. Thanks for making the trip, was a great effort from you boys. I will post up some pictures of how i get on with Haggis etc in the week :).

We played as per the card apart from 10 & 11. The 2nd was a par5 off whites though and some people had scored their points off the par 5 rather than the par 4 that it was off yellows and should of been scored off.
 
Thoughts for the day:-

Firstly, Birchy was the main engine of this meet by far, just the odd little help thrown in by me. When done again Birchy,lar.

Bookies favourites, shameless (very aptly named) took the honour. Whilst searching for a particular quote from general Lord Wellington, I came across the following, which somehow all felt apt today:-

"It has been a damned nice thing - the nearest run thing you ever saw in your life...By God"!

- The jocks pushed them impressively all the way,though.

"I don't know what effect these men will have upon the enemy, but, by God, they frighten me".

_ I can comfortably say this, as I have now met Fish and some of the others in the flesh.

"All the business of war, and indeed all the business of life, is to endeavor to find out what you don't know by what you do; that's what I called 'guessing what was at the other side of the hill."

-After looking on and over every hill for Danny's (Bluewolf's) balls, I know what he means.

"I never saw so many shocking bad hats in my life."

-With some donning Pre-OOM hats, I can vouch for that. Qwerty, my nan wants her one back!

Loved the course, the company and it was nice to come in with sun on our backs. 33 points with 3 blobs and 5 x 3 putts, means I must have been the best tee to green golfer. :whistle:

It was nice to also meet the Scottish boys and Fish, top men and hope you returned safe.

Well done to Scouser for deserving his prize, after finishing above 2 big fat girls.

Well doen to StuC for finishing behind THE big fat girl. Enjoy the Hex blacks, fella. :)

A special mention must go to Danny (Bluewolf) who despite his shocker of a front 9, kept at it and had a very good back 9. His attitude around both 9's did not change one bit, a credit to his attitude. He had a ready smile on his face throughout, and we could all learn from this attitude throughout the bad times in golf. A true gent, more than welcome to play Lee park, anytime you like. Cheers Dan!

Liver, what is the local Police station at West Lancs as I'm going to email them tomorrow to report Stuart for attempted murder!

Yes his golf was murder but I'm glad I shaved my head last night as that's how close his ball came to my napper!!!


:sbox:

From the 4-5 cards I checked, I think everyone marked the 2nd as a par 5, but it was only a 4 off the yellows, which we were working off.

Played like a 5 though,I must admit. My best drive of the day and 3 wood approach, and I was still 30 yards short!
 
LB, you need a putting lesson from Qwerty!

Never seen anyone hole out from 4/5/6 feet the way he did today, saved himself 5 shots easy.

After posting about my short game woes that's what kept me in it today, not really sure what I was doing though.....
 
Cheers fellas. I'm tearing up a bit here. That was probably the worst golf I've ever played, but its hard to be downbeat on a great course like that and with a great set of lads ripping me to bits at every opportunity. Kenny congratulating me on finally making a pitch mark on a green on the 15th hole is still tickling me now. I'll take you up on the Lee Park offer soon, but I'll stop on the way and pick us all up some bacon sarnies seeing as your course won't sell them. :thup:

Probably Waterloo - I think he met his waterloo today. :whistle:

I was gonna mention something about this too but i didnt want any rumours starting :D . Ive never seen a guy keep his head and spirits so high despite playing well below his ability. Its definately an attitude a lot of people can learn from as LB said. Ive never laughed so much with playing partners on a round and it was Danny who was doing most of the laughing :).
 
What a day!

Firstly, well done to birchy for the organisation of a cracking day. Thanks to Craw,Fish and Junior for putting up with my dreadful round of golf, now I know how scouser feels playing like a tart!

It was a tough old day on the course and the different weather changes didn't help. I nearly killed Craw with a horror 8 iron shot which was very funny ;)
My game was nothing short of abysmal but I knew for coming last was a box of Callaway black hex so I wasn't too upset honest!

Form is temporary, class is permanent.....

My choice of breakfast (thanks Danny)certainly caused a stir but as I'm well cultured its normal type of scran to me!

Thanks again for the day gents,I can't wait for formby/Liverpool meet in March.
