Bloody hell, this was oversubscribed two days ago!  Amazing how a little bit of snow can sort the men from the boys!

are they likely to be on temps if the weather continues like it is??

John, they had a frost on Tuesday night but by 10am they were on full greens.

As at yesterday full greens and no buggy or trolley bans.

Al, will let you know.

Regards, Darren.

John,

If you're going up, do you want to car share?  I can pick you up on the way.

Check latest forecast as of Thurs 11.30am. Looks OK, only thing maybe need to worry about is frost.

It's going to be above freezing - don't think I'll even take a jumper

Tim, will hold you to that

? DAMART ?  is that russian for something

Wayne,

I'm more scared of being beaten by the wife if she found out I played all weekend

John.

Al,if you can cool if not no worries.

There are 24 confirmed spots and 24 golfers.  We have an additional 4 spots which can be filled or not, I will be confirming whether we need an additional tee time with the course at 5pm today.

Regards, Darren.

What I want to know is 'was there any water on the course & how many balls did Chris P put in it??

Decent course, back 9 a little better than the front IMO.  Shame i'm too rubbish to have got the best out of it.

Yes there is water on the course John, and the lost balls in water count for me was ....... 0.  Hard to believe, I know.  Doesn't mean I didn't lose any....

now what would be better is to have a few meets darn sarf!

Unless you want to rename the site Northern Shake....

Come on Darren, you know it makes sense. no wonder the north keep winning the NvS

Wayne,

Is that a "I did OK" as in "you won" or "I came in the top 3"???

John.

He won it John.  I was close to the wooden spoon, but fortunately there were a couple who were even more rubbish than me on the day!

Congratulations, Wayne, I told you that you were good, didn't I.

Love Santo's modesty.  He scored 37 points and beat me by two.  I've just done a mental count back on my score and managed to get round with 23 putts - single putted 11 and 2 putted 6 and one in from off the green - really pleased with that but shows the rest of my round probably wasn't that good....

Wayne,

I told you that resetting your handicap to 16 would be a good idea !!!!

John.

I had the pleasure of playing with Wayne and he played exceptionally well yesterday.  Was in awe of Mark and Alan's driving distance !

How long will it be Darren before results are posted and an updated Order of Merit is published going into the last event of the year - "The end of season shindig"

What's wrong Martin, getting nervous about being caught?  Santo is probably quite close now you know.......

Yes, the "Race to Northampton" is coming to a conclusion and things are to get very interesting. Maybe will turn out to be a putt holed or missed on the 18th at the death that decides the winner.

All exciting stuff !!

Wayne, don't forget that by the time they've cooked the tea, washed up, done the ironing, made the sandwiches for the next day, got the kids ready for bed, made a cup of tea & given their hubby a foot massage there probably too knackered to post anything!!!!

John.

This coming from the man who had all last week off to look after the kids during half term week while the missus was at work..........

And he was taking the kids to see High School Musical 3 on Friday afternoon last week until I asked him if he fancied a game of golf so his missus took them instead.  I bet he sneaks off to see it on his own now because he wants to see how the cliffhanger from the second one pans out. 

He's a REAL man that Floody bloke 

Chris,

you seem to know an awful lot about high school musical. do you base yourself on Troy??

I know who wears the trousers in my house 'cos my missus told me

John

Why would I base myself on an ancient country that was at war with the Greeks?  Only Troy I know.  Me thinks someone knows a little too much about Disney films aimed at pre-teen girls.......

I bet he sneaks off to see it on his own now because he wants to see how the cliffhanger from the second one pans out

how do you explain that Troy??

I'm off now to learn the new dance steps I saw whilst watching Step Up 2

Was there a cliffhanger at the end of two?  I haven't seen any of them.  I have seen most of the Disney films though as the little lady is a huge Disney fan and has most of them on DVD.  Even she hasn't watched any of the High School Musical films.  Since they're not animated with talking animals and she's not a pre-teen girl they're not her demographic.  Why do you like them again John?

No moonwalking down the fairway John, your spikes will rip up the turf.......

I like them because they have a meaningful storyline, good actors, well choregraphed dance routines & catchy songs. There I've said it, I've outed myself!!!

Oh dear.  I'm feeling just a little uncomfortable now........

John's a bit too girly for me by the sounds of it. 

what a perfect partnership.... we'd be able to play golf every day

I'm getting married in the morning..........

Hi all. Just like to say how much I enjoyed sunday at mottram, although I had a nightmare round and sorry I had to dash off and pick up the missus.

I made up for it today by shooting 86 at temple newsam and scored 39 stableford, shame I cant make it on saturday but Im working. hope to see you all soon (probably next year tho).
