Off to San Diego tomorrow morning lads. Torrey Pines Tuesday, will send you a couple of photos.

:mrgreen:

[Julie]

As you know I work Saturday's blah blah...........but Russell could play. He is at sea at the moment so I can't definitely say yes, but pencil him in with your deepest blackest black. (God, I'm a wonderful wife!) :D

Nice work, Brett. Need a PA? ;)

Julie try get the day off. You're the only fnq ozgolfer I like.


...........but Russell could play. He is at sea at the moment so I can't definitely say yes, but pencil him in with your deepest blackest black. (God, I'm a wonderful wife!) :D
That's fine but if he's in pencil and pulls out and then changes his mind and wants in, first reserve gets his spot and he has to go to the end of the list.

And if we're having a punt, I'm on the 'no' list.

(Julie if you don't know what i'm on about read the Wynnum Cup thread. It's good for a laugh)

[Julie]

Mmm, I think I had too many wines last night, I forgot Russell will be on his boys only golfing trip at the Gold Coast on the 27th of Feb.

[Tomson]

Julie try get the day off. You're the only fnq ozgolfer I like.

You're off my christmas card list now.

[Courty]

Mike, wanna play our matchplay at P Palms? :twisted:

[Chopper71]

i'm up for a match if anyone interested.

[mike]

Mike, wanna play our matchplay at P Palms? :twisted:
Hmm. Out of my last 3 outings at PP my best score has been 29. I struggle there. Even the pro shop staff laugh when I walk in.

OK let's do it.

Courty swings like a girl.

[Courty]

Out of my last 3 outings at PP my best score has been 29. I struggle there. Even the pro shop staff laugh when I walk in.

Hence the offer to play our match there. 8-)

[Chopper71]

Haysey do you want to dance with the devil in the pale moonlight??? If not how bout a match then?

[haysey]

I dance with the devil on a nightly basis...







Are you down to 3 yet?

[haysey]

Incidentally Cookie has vowed to show up for this or forever be branded a homo.

Should be a queue to play him.

I thought they would still do an adhoc adjustment. The round was played under comp conditions, cards signed and entered....fkn country folk!

I'm hoping so. At this point I haven't managed to speak to the "pro:lol:" who is on holidays till tomorrow. I'm intending to put the hard word on him.

Can't figure out how they can have 30 plus players enter scores and then cancel the comp anyway. I want my comp fee back.

[Chopper71]

I want my comp fee back.

Good point...i want my comp fee & mojo back!

[haysey]

Good point...i want my comp fee & mojo back!


You can have your mojo back. But not until after 1 on saturday:razz:

[BrettM]

So I turn up Saturday but can't play anyone in matchplay (got flogged by Tomson already) because I'm not in the 'cool' group of Group 1??

[Courty]

Unfortunately there's a good chance that this will be cancelled due to bad weather. I'm sure noone wants to pay top dollar to play in the rain.

Not sure if Solarman has seen this thread or not...I'll ask him tomorrow. I'm sure he'd be up for a flogging if he can play

I thought you were hard as f*ck?


Edit: What Chopper said.

[Courty]

I thought you were hard as f*ck?

I am, but I won't be playing by myself either.

[haysey]

I am, but I won't be playing by myself either.


Tis true. $90 to splash around a swamp when I could do it for free at Cairns. No question which one I'd choose.

[BrettM]

(Just trying to stir up interest from my group)

Add me to the list who wishes this f*cking rain would piss off.

[BrettM]

BTW - got to work earlier and tipped 140mm out of the gauge for the 24h to 5am.

Have reached our first 1m of rain for the year.

Great success.

[solarman]

I don't know what to say after the way I played on Saturday.
Talk about depressing.
Worst round ever and an embarassment to the group I was with.

You're kidding me, right? It was a nett 77. FWIW, I actually find you good company on the course.

[solarman]

I suppose take away 2 quads, a triple and a few "I've really got the shits swings" and it could've been reasonable. Especially the 1 handed bunker shot.
Poor ol' Stewy didn't even know me and he must have been wondering "what the ..."

[mike]

Bob, only wankers have single digit handicaps.

How's the weather on the coast? It's been pretty good this week up here but I'm hearing it's wet as hell down there.

If it's wet I just ain't interested. Wet weather golf reminds me of Kasey Chambers and brussell sprouts.

[haysey]

Bob, only wankers have single digit handicaps.

Even the ducks are drowning:cry:. Can't see us playing this weekend

[pom]

Guess that means there will be water in the Hazards when I am up that way in a Months time?

[haysey]

Yeah. That'd be a good bet.



Chopper, if we dont get Paradise Palms this weekend I think we should play at Gordonvale:razz:

[Courty]

How's the weather on the coast? It's been pretty good this week up here but I'm hearing it's wet as hell down there.

Maybe Mareeba could be our backup option. How's the course looking and what's the comp up there this weekend?

[haysey]

Chopper, if we dont get Paradise Palms this weekend I think we should play at Gordonvale:razz:


I think the above post is a great idea;) Royal G is a great course...

[mike]

Maybe Mareeba could be our backup option. How's the course looking and what's the comp up there this weekend?Comp is stableford.
We've had a bit of rain this week but nothing on the scale of last week.

I'll do a course inspection in the next few days.

If we play Mareeba no matchplay courty OK.

[Chopper71]

I think the above post is a great idea;) Royal G is a great course...
Congratulations mate down to 7, thoroughly deserved i might add. I like my chances anywhere....except Royal Goat-track!

Yeah, I'll get back to you in about 3 months. When I get back to 10:D

[mike]

Why no matchplay? Chicken? Brrk, brrk, brrk! :p
How juvenile.

I don't want to play any of my matches at Mareeba. Except maybe against NKJ.

[Courty]

How juvenile.


Courty swings like a girl.

:roll: Try again.

[mike]

"Courty swings like a girl" is way more mature than "Chicken? Brrk, brrk, brrk!"

[Courty]

Says you. You still haven't said why you won't play me at Mareeba.

[mike]

I said weeks ago I didn't want to play any of my matches at Mareeba. Home ground advantage blah blah blah.

We can play @ Mareeba if you really want to.

[Courty]

Honestly it doesn't worry me either way, I just wanted to know why you didn't want to.

Besides, my recent form at Mareeba is pretty good. 8)

[mike]

Ok we'll play it at Mareeba. If we play at all that is.

And you do sort of swing like a girl.

[Chopper71]

And you do sort of swing like a girl.

What do you mean sort of

Hold the phone Chopper. Apparently the ccr was meant to be 68. I may be playing off 8 yet:roll:



They have NFI what they're doing out there.

[mike]

I saw the CCR was 71. wtf?

[haysey]

Apparently it was difficult. Of 90 starters only 30 posted a score. Yada yada yada. Welcome to 7 mofo:D

[mike]

Talking to Bert Bout today. He said none of the afternoon field finished.

[haysey]

Pussies. It wasn't that bad:razz:

[BrettM]

So which course are we playing, PP, Mareeba or The G?

Birthday boy's decision....

[Courty]

Haysey's anonymous spy reports that it was in quite good condition... carts allowed on fairways etc.

As long as the weather stays reasonably fine, it'll be PP.

[BrettM]

PP it is.

Time??

[Courty]

I've got 2 groups booked at about 7:30ish.

[haysey]

So matchups are

BrettM v Solarman
Mike v Courty
haysey v Chopper71


Mike, are you planning to make Courty cry on his birthday?

Dear Bob,

I hereby challenge you to matchplay tomorrow at Paradise Palms.

Regards - Brett.

[solarman]

At this rate we will need gum boots

[haysey]

Dear Bob,

Accepting the fact that I will need a calculator to keep track of.
1/ The number of shots I have to give you. And
2/ Your overall score.

I hereby challenge you to matchplay see if you can stay under 100 tomorrow at Paradise Palms.

Regards - Brett.

Fixed it for you Brett:mrgreen:

Report from Paradise Palms. Fairways are now closed to carts and its not looking good for tomorrow...

[mike]

I'll monitor things up here. If it's in Mareeba what time will you all be leaving? I'll ring you if it gets too wet.

[haysey]

Around 6am Mike. It'll be Mareeba or nowhere I think:cry:

[Courty]

SMS sent.

[haysey]

Where'd you send him?

[Courty]

The the shops to buy some clothes.

[haysey]

Thank you:D

[BrettM]

Mareeba it is, I'll be there.....

.....will solarman????

[mike]

Guys I had a quick look at Mareeba this arv. 18 looks a bit boggy, 9 looks better than expected, I was told the corner of 12 is a bit wet and 15 as well. None of the other holes are really ever a problem.

Very playable, just a bit boggy. I'll go out and have a closer look first thing tomorrow. I'll text you all before 6.

Brett PM me your mobile number please.

[haysey]

Mareeba it is, I'll be there.....

[Courty]

OK, everyone is in except for Stuart. He's on a bender tonight and didn't wanna do a Chopper at tee time tomorrow. :lol:

[Courty]

If anyone knows someone else who is keen to play, there is now a free spot.

Alvaro Quiros just punched a 3 wood almost 300 yards.

He's got nothing on Tomson though.....

[haysey]

You know I walked out to the 5th tee to join the boys this afternoon. 2 holes later they're telling me to **** off.


No idea why:cry:

[BrettM]

You outplayed them with your +1 form??

[haysey]

Yeah that's it:D


That or I dragged them straight down to my current level:oops:

[Courty]

Nothing to do with his lack of ability. Tomson & I were having a nice civil conversation, but as as soon as Haysey showed up it went straight to the gutter. He is an evil evil man and a bad influence on the rest of us. :p

Solarman = burglar:roll: Bad luck Brett

[BrettM]

Thanks boys for the day. Always enjoyable getting out to play.

Thought I may have got past Bob until he popped his pills on 8 tee and came home strong.

Probably times his Viagra the same way :mrgreen:

[Courty]

Good match to watch. Well and truly worth the price of admission.

Every match between Mike & I has been of epic proportions.


Solarman = burglar:roll: Bad luck Brett

Anyone who takes on Solarman at Mareeba is asking for it, I think that's at least 3 consecutive rounds he's beaten his handicap there. I can't understand how he does it, it's not as if the fairways are 300m wide. :roll:

[solarman]

As courty says "wankers"

[mike]

Good match to watch. Well and truly worth the price of admission.



Every match between Mike & I has been of epic proportions.

Yep it had everything.
You won the first 3 holes and I thought I was screwed. I got back to 2 up dormy. You finished par, birdie to square me.

Great match.

[solarman]

Why don't you two get a room.

[mike]

How can you get 14 points on one 9 and 24 on the next?

[solarman]

You know what is amazing? Calling me a pillow biter when no one in our group has iron covers and yet at least 3 in your group does.......donut punchers

[Courty]

Shirt lifter!

[solarman]

driving out of mareeba yesterday, we had to wave to everyone because we thought they were Mike, they all looked the same.

Seriously Group A.....who needs to keep their irons warm by having head covers, especially ones with little windows in them so they can yell out "pick me, pick me".

I'm amazed that the yellow featered goose doesn't have them, now that he thinks he is a golfer.

Turd burglars.

PS Is this getting close to a ZIGWAH rant !!!
