I am organising a golf weekend in SW Scotland at the end of July.

Probably looking to play some or all of Wigtownshire, Brighouse and Newton Stewart.

Definitely at least one links though.

The idea is to travel down on the Friday, have one round, then drink too much in the evening. Another round on the Saturday followed by more bonhomie and a last hack on the Sunday before heading home.

The Hotel I have in mind is the is the Bruce Hotel and they are offering B&B in twin rooms for £35 pp or B&B and a 3 course evening meal for £52.50. Single rooms are £49 and £63.

The hotel gets great reviews in Tripadvisor.

The dates are the 31st of July for 2 nights.

All 3 courses accept 2 for 1/Bunkered/Green Free etc although these are usually restricted to a max of 8 players.

I've got 5 definite names so far.

So, who is interested?

Newton Stewart holds its Open on the Sunday and it only costs £7 to play in it with an optional £1.00 sweep.

I've entered everybody and they have guaranteed us a tee around 11.00 am.

Result! :thumbsup:

If you don't have a handicap, you can get one here (http://www.myonlinegolfclub.com/Default2.aspx?gclid=COfrgra6opsCFaYA4wodyE27Cg).

We're now going to play a practice tround at NS on the Friday, instead of Brighouse Bay which I've cancelled.

We'll still play Wigtownshire County on the Saturday.

I'm really looking forward to this! :woohoo:

I'm giving the Bolton and Blackburn games a miss. :wink:

I'm still looking for Norway tickets. Take your mobile when you're there. Maybe we can meet up for a pint on the Wednesday.

Wimp.

Not made my mind up about Norway yet to be honest. Was planning on it as you know but maybe Bolton and Blackburn instead. I definitley cannot push my luck with it all though. Golf will be good though:greengrin
