S24SU FootGolf Trip - Friday 3rd April

[onslowblade]

I'm a definite.

And with a provisional +1

 

[HillmortonBlade]

This is going to be a good laugh methinks

 

[Foxy]

Right then, so the confirmed list so far is as follows:

Foxy
Linz
DazBlade88
+1
HillmortonBlade
HB Junior
diplomat
+2
onslowblade

with a potential +1 and some more to come back to me.

It looks like waiting until we got into April in the hopes of better weather worked brilliantly too

Could be some high scores and some wet socks!

 

[Foxy]

What time do you want us there foxy?

I've booked tee-times from 9.30 - 10am, will confirm tomorrow evening, but if we could all meet over there around 9.30am?

Is everyone alright for transport across/finding their way?

 

[diplomat]

I might be a plus one rather than two but will confirm when I know.

Yes, we a re sorted for finding our way there, see you tomorrow.

 

[diplomat]

I'm a plus one rather than plus two. We're fine for a ride and directions.

 

[Foxy]

Okay then, so:

Foxy
Linz
DazBlade88
+1
HillmortonBlade
HB Junior
diplomat
+1
onslowblade

If we can meet around 9.30 in the car park? crossing fingers that the weather is as it has been today

Should be a laugh, looking forward to it and meeting a couple of new faces.

Any more are welcome to join us, it's more cost effective in groups of 4

Will pm everyone my number in case you need it.

 

[onslowblade]

Looking forward to it, my +1 is a definite. See you all in the morning.

Is the torrential rain a problem or is some kind of hat in order and a can of shut the hell up? Foxy

Drizzling here, rain just makes it all the more interesting (or hilarious)

 

[Linz]

It's not drizzling. It's raining. You typed that from an office without windows.

This is going to be about as much fun as sticking my fingers in the plug socket...

 

[Linz]

His Lordship reckons the rain is set to ease at 9am, so we're still heading across to see how it is.

 

[Foxy]

Cheers for coming everyone, good to meet some new faces, will put the scores up when I'm back from shopping.

 

[diplomat]

I've got a couple of pics I'll stick up later. My team was HillmortonBlade and junior, my mate, was the other onslowblade ? Just so I tag the right person nestling in the shrubbery.

Well played HB Junior, current foot golf champion.

 

[HillmortonBlade]

Well played HB Junior, current foot golf champion.

Yes... He keeps reminding me....

 

[Foxy]

Scores will be up shortly... controversy on our 5's as I've just discovered a mistake in the adding up

Think I'm about right names wise... I just can't read or remember the names of diplomat and onslowblade 's +1s!

 

[diplomat]

My plus one was Andrew - no forum ID as he's a dirty L**ds fan.

 

[onslowblade]

My +1 was Wato or as he is now known Wato white pumps

 

[diplomat]

My +1 was Wato or as he is now known Wato white pumps

Those pumps will never be white again

 

[Foxy]

Okay, here's some scores.

In the interests of fairness, I've tagged it Top Gear style as Very, Very, Very Wet.

Of those of us who played in the dry in August, diplomat managed to only drop 2 shots on last time despite the weather, DazBlade88 dropped 8, I dropped 10 and Linz dropped 24. It's safe to say, that the roll off in conditions like this morning is ridiculous compared to in the dry! I've also got to mention how many times Linz hit the hole, but rolled back out, must be a new record

Individuals:

​

Group 1:

Unless I can't read DazBlade88's writing, he added his own score up incorrectly originally, as onslowblade was down as having beaten him by 1, however, it would appear that both actually finished on 82.

Thanks for coming everyone, was a laugh, despite the far from ideal conditions! It's always good to meet some forum members we've never seen in person before and obviously see those we already have

Fingers crossed the next trip over is a little more dry... Will post a suggested date at some stage assuming people are interested.

You've got to worry when you can't even read your own writing!

The 10 after my magnificent tumble really screwed me over

Don't talk to me about 10s. I've heard enough about them from HB Jnr.
