Just to confirm, we are talking this Sunday the 23rd, tee off around 1pm, my preference would be Springfield but would go with the flow.

Maybe an idea to meet up an hour or so first somewhere such as Mongkol to sort out groups and stuff and head off to the course together.

Assuming that idiot golfers are also permitted, I'll go along with any arrangements that suit the majority

There is a shotgun day organised every Sunday as part of the festival. Not sure which venue is holding it this Sunday. Need to make sure we don't clash.

Is that so you can shoot the caddy or your playing partner if you're having a bad day? :shock:

I like it, I'll bring mine! Is it considered a club so that I have to leave one of the other 14 at home? :D :D :D
My brain is like an Internet browser; 12 tabs are open and 5 of them are not responding, there's a GIF playing in an endless loop,... and where is that annoying music coming from?

Will call Springfield tomorrow and confirm we can get out there.
Buksi idea good - meet before and sort out the game.
Can get Ya to be at the range for Bacon sarnies if anyone wants!

So you need to be able to go round in over 100 then?
Is that with preffered lies? like buksida style preffered lies?
Will we have to tee off early like I usually do to get round before it gets dark?
Lomu wants to know if the bar will be open at Mongkhol that early?
Are there 2 JW's playing?
Because if they are one of them will need to know how long they will have to wait at the 19th when they have finished? The other 1 I guess will say the longer the better?
And do we have to let them pay through or not?
Are there are any allied forces, the yanks, going to perform a cabaret?
Is there going to be a swear box?
If there is can you buy like a prepaid bulk purchase voucher?
FINALLY where & when?
is there room for one more 120+ player if I promise to go behind a big tree when I want to say rude words?
A trully finally do I have to carry on having the oldest or the ugliest caddy? cos mum says it makes me irratable. ASIF!
& Lomu, Carraway?

Hi All,

Tee times booked from 12.38 till 12.52 - thats 3 slots so we can have 12 players.
If we meet at Mongkol at say 10.30 we can organise teams, have a beer and maybe a bacon sarnie!

Clive - room for you i reckon!

Cheers,

JW

That's grand - I'll be there at 10.30 too

Preferred sandwiches: sausage, egg and white pudding - ok without the white pudding will do.

As for handicap: see Clive above or bozzman further above


BTW - in case you haven't seen the new Mermaid Cruises thread, you're all welcome to the official opening of our place in Hua Hin on Friday night

Please let me know ASAP so i can make sure the butties will be on!
10.30 at Mongkol is the meet. Gives us an hour to chat and have breakfast, 20 mins to the course then some may want to hit a few practise swipes! then tee up at 12.38.
