• 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?????

It's heating up I see! All I'm thinking about is the food ! Sausage and bacon bap for lunch I think:D

I think my first meal will consist of Just One sausage bap, won't need much fuel, got to give them a little Ray of hope :smirk:
 
Chaps, I might have to miss the first round. My childcare for the Sunday has gone Kanye. I'm working on it but I may only be able to get there for 3.30. I will keep you updated. If I rock up late then o will ealk out onto the course and play as many holes as I can with the group.

We can put your group out last and I'll try and distract Frank and Shaun so they won't notice you're not there.

If you can make it by 3.30 we'll probably still be looking for Frank's ball in the ditch on the first.

Very true Jim or it will be on the green in one of a cart bag ! More and likely knob it 10 yards up the fairway! Happy to go out last and give Ron as much time as he needs.
 
All packed and ready for the off - feel a bit icky but let's hope that goes overnight. Looking forward to seeing everyone (even the Ping boys)

took 10 mins to find my clubs it's been so long! Knee giving me jip at mo so should be off 24 if I'm honest and still be lucky to get 20 points:eek:
 
Right, here’s the draw for rounds 3 and 4. Of course, there will be the usual bleating about “I haven’t played with so and so” and “why do I have to play with him again” but I’ve heard it all before. If 16 people wander up to the tee, some wanting buggies some walking, it can degenerate into a shambles. I have no doubt the draws will not remain intact but at least there will be some semblance of order.
Buggy riders are again in bold. After the Monday morning round CaptainRon and I will swap buggies as will Lig and FullThrottle.
If the Ping gentlemen don’t like the draw, it could have been worse – you could have been drawn to play with every single one of the scum.

Great work Rosie. Couldn't have worked out much better. I played around last year trying to get as many different pairings as possible and gave up in despair.

At least I don't have to play with His Knobs and ChrisD :thup: and Sandmagnet can take as long as he likes to tee off without me losing the will to live ......:ears: (unless I'm behind him) :mad:

:rofl:Knob! Good journey chaps.
 
Dosed myself up with cold and flu relief, leaving in about half an hour to go pick Norman and Ewan up.
Safe journeys lads, I am planning to get to the Beckett Arms around mid-day.
I think it's going to be dry, if a tad windy......:mad:
