Sounds like it's certainly something I could be interested in but wouldn't be able to confirm for 100% until next year

Me. Add me to reserve list if there is one. Can pay a deposit now if you like.
I'll stay at the Black Horse Inn like I did at the Ping Pro-Am day. A really good boozer with annexes which, if booked early enough, would accommodate all of us travelling and they do a decent brekkie too.

So as I read it, the current state of play looks like this....
Definites...
1. Oddsocks
2. RickG
3. Virtuocity.
Possibles....
1. Pieman
2. Valentino
3. LiverpoolPhil
As I say, we need 8 players for this to work properly. As soon as we get 8 definites I will ask for a small deposit, maybe the "odd" £25.00 from each player, which would be paid to reserve whatever accommodation is decided on.
Pieman's suggestion above seems a good one, but Virtuocity's seems, on the face of it, to offer a slightly better chance of accommodating everybody.
Virtuocity......Could you possibly make tentative enquiries with the Black Horse Inn to see if they could accommodate 8 people for the nights of Sun 2nd and Mon 3rd please mate?
Certainly looks like this could be a "goer" for next year. Come on lads. Just need 5 more "definites" to make it an event

OK fully understand, I'll put you down as a "possible" for now, but as I say, if I get 8 definites then you will have to go on the "reserve" list ....

Great stuff Paul. I'll update tonight as the forum is "playing up" on my works PC.
Good to have you aboard. James will leak a little I think.

Just wish it had been the 9th August instead of the 2nd as I'm likely to be away for most of July with work and won't be able to guarantee being back in time to make it.
I'm 100% in, I only had to pull out this year as HID moved the goal posts as the Tuesday was my Birthday and she started to get ratty

Just to let you know that I have emailed two hotels up that way (including the one highlighted by both Virtuocity and Pieman) to find out the best price we could get 2 night accommodation for.
As soon as I hear back I'll let you know

Smiffy- sorry I didn't read your message until just now. Thanks for emailing the Black Horse.
From memory they have 6 annexes but my memory was a little hazy. Don't bother asking PieMan- he won't remember either.

Just has this reply from "The George"....
"Hi Robert
We can offer accommodation for those dates,
Rooms available are 2 twin ensuite rooms and then 3 rooms that share 1 bathroom, a twin and 2 singles. That would be a cost effective option if you required one, twin shared £48 2 single share £35 and 2 ensuite at £75
Total of £268 per night with breakfast .
Or if you had all ensuites being the 2 twins at £75 then 4 singles at £55
Total of £370per night.
On the Sunday we do not trade in the evening for food or drink guests check in then have there own key to come and go as they please, there is a very nice Indian across the market place and a pub around the corner, breakfast served as normal Monday morning, we open at 5pm Monday.
Hope this helps"
So basically, to keep costs down, if we took up option one that would work out at £67.00 per person for the two night stay. You can fight over yourselves who has the twin or single rooms!
I think that is a great price taking into acount it also includes full English brekkie for both the Monday and Tuesday mornings.
That means the whole three day trip, four rounds of golf, accommodation, all food (don't forget evening meals are included at the Club) will come to a total of £192.00. Pretty good value for money.
What do you reckon?
Should I reserve it????

Sorry to make yet another post, but the website isn't behaving properly on my works PC so I can't edit posts.
The George have just come back to me, they would require £10.00 per person to reserve the rooms, so not too dusty.
Let me know what you want me to do, and I'll do it

JustOne will vouch for the fact that the sofa in the upstairs flat is quite comfortable, so you would be welcome to it if you don't mind going to sleep until the tipsy crib players have packed it in for the night. There is also an ironing board.
