Well the Lucky Blakey quarter final replay will take place on 23rd October at course not yet named to protect the innocent (clique arranging), so now is probably a good idea to kick a few tyres around when to play the semi final.

Lucky seems to be keen on Friday mornings, so do I, so Greg, what do you think of the Semi on Friday the 30th at say Carbrook? No reason why we cant book it now, and the Unlucky Buggar can pull out.

Its worth noting that Lucky is not playing in the champs, so if i do the job on him anyway its not an issue. however if he makes the final there is no real drama - it doesnt really have to be played by or at them, it was just nice if it could.

Greg isn't either, is he? And will he see this thread?

I had not ruled out going to the champs, but now the old man's 80th is on the Sunday the 15th, it is a tough choice but perhaps I should attend his B'Day. This makes the champs a no-go for me.

Q. Should the entrants for the matchplay be available for the champs - or not enter the matchplay at all, or shouldn't it matter?

He is playing.

No, its just a good time to have it ended by, for the presentation.

There is no reason why a final could'nt be played before the champs, or if not possible shortly after.

He can't be trusted.

Scrap that anyway. I'll be in a secure facility locked away from contacting the real world (at least with a mobile).

I'd be tempted to have another go there, but i think i will wait for them to stop cutting the fairways so low.

Results are in and are as follows:

H - G - G - L -H -G - L - G - L - Greg turned 1 up
L - H - L - H -H- H - H - L

Lucky gets there 2 and 1

Some pretty decent golf played today by both of us and could have gone either way.Greg would have had 35 points and myself 36 points. PD also would have had 37 points.

Congrats to Lucky, the match was tight all day. Nice day, good golf and good company what more can you ask for!. Thanks guys.

Gainsborough is in pretty good nick at present, greens are fast and true. Well worth the trip down for the early morning special.

Probably should also mention what would probably win the vote for shot of the day. On the last Gregh hit his approach into the green (3rd shot) and over shot right of the green. He thought it had gone into the water hazard on that side for a long while but finally found it down the bank of the hazard. From the green all we saw was the clubhead on the follow through, the ball just cleared the bunker and then rolled across the green a good 80 feet with a big right to left break straight into the hole for a bird! Nice shot Greg! but you needed it two holes before!:smt038

Oh and Lucky's misadvernture with the water hazard trying to get the ball he could see near the edge. The Hazards have VERY soft banks at Gainsborough!

**** that was soft. What looked like a firm edge, turned out to be pure soft mud. After I managed to climb my way out ( thanks for the assistance Pete:)) from the knee down I was totally covered in mud - shoe, sock leg and all. There was also a few giggles coming from my partner.

Another tip if you play at GG - the mud stinks, but Pete allowed me to ride on the back with the bags.
