• We'd like to take this opportunity to wish you a Happy Holidays and a very Merry Christmas from all at Golf Monthly. Thank you for sharing your 2025 with us!

Who's man enough?????

Right. With just over a week to go, decisions have to be made. I know that full_throttle will be bringing lots of beer and snacks and I will be bringing some excellent shiraz (even though it's Lefty's turn as he drank all mine last year) and some more snacks - plus a selection of crib boards. What has to be decided is if any of the hotel rabble will be welcome to join us in the upstairs flat.

Things for possible guests to note:

LIG needs a minimum of 10 hours beauty sleep - but he wears ear muffs to block out his own snoring.
JustOne will probably follow Lefty upstairs to join us if he hears us enjoying ourselves - and also because Smiffy goes to bed at 9.00.
If you are blessed with an invitation upstairs, make sure you have visited the Gainsborough Tesco so you can bring some drink and snacks contributions.

You haven't heard then I take it? JustOne is rooming upstairs this year...

... and, following my cosmetic surgery, I require no beauty sleep at all - just normal sleep!:whistle:

Smiffy tells me nothing - and James is NOT having my single room.

That's a bit harsh Rosie. I did bring 5ltr of a rather nice Cooper and Griffin's Vulcan Bomber Blue beer that I had to finish off before starting on your Shiraz. You were quite welcome to have helped me finish it sooner.

Good thinking :thup:
 
After a conversation over dinner yesterday with Leftie I've just enrolled on a "Learn championship level Cribbage in 5 days" course !
 
PM's send to those staying at the Pub. Please check your inboxes!
Just confirmation that we will be playing a team stableford competition, with every score to count over the 4 rounds.
£15.00 from each person into the prize fund.
Winning team will pick up £160.00 which will leave £80.00 in the pot to give us £50.00 for the best player over the four rounds, £30.00 2nd place.
Long range forecast looking good at the moment. Fingers crossed it doesn't change too much.
:thup::thup::thup:
 
Have great time guys, gutted I couldn't make it but I couldn't confirm early enough with my injury and tbh, I doubt if I would be still fit enough for a 3-day marathon of golf, my thumb was stinging towards the end at Cooden.

Come on the hoteliers :D

You were being considered for next year's Gainsborough 8 as some of them are on their last legs but you have now blown your chances by supporting "the rabble".
