Well **** me dead! Another group is already booked so we have to move it to 1st and 2nd September.

Thought I'd get the dates in earlier so the interstaters can keep their eyes out for the discounted flights; no pressure Grunt :mrgreen: Be sure to help Cosmo with the NZ-BNE-TAS special... what were you thinking! :lol: Perhaps this even requires it's own thread should somebody know something before the masses??

Pelican Waters has kindly offered to have us back again but next year, we are moving the dates slightly forward due to school holidays and football final clashes.

The obligatory pre and post match details to follow in due course. Accommodation and golf rates on par but I'll release these next week.

So put in your leave now, save the dates and begin the countdown!

Boozer - see above
Late and noisy - see above
Snorer - maybe
Smelly - maybe

Then I decided that out of all of the options I came up with the answer was probably

All of the above.

You definitely need to be his roomy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have a look for the NAGA threads on the Forum, the videos, his quotes etc, you will have a great time.

Try this for starters, this is what he did on the back of haysey's work truck whilst hayesy was at this years Champs and Solarman was too slack to turn up (even though Mrs's Solarman gave her approval)

I understand there was talk of a less expensive venue being a possibility ?

I propose a 5% increase in green fees and an allowance for shavey, and protection from outsourcing.

New thread me thinks and I'll post the accommodation and green fee information shortly.

By the way, I might have one of the penthouses for Friday night festivities providing numbers are similar to this year. I'm thinking we get those musos amongst us to rock up a storm on guitar hero!

They are the dates I have locked in mate, both with the course and hotel. Happy to push for an earlier than normal tee time Sunday should those want to get home. Otherwise we were pushing late October again due to existing groups and hotel availability. Thinking that I might even go a Thursday/Friday practice round instead of Friday/Monday.

But this time, no more Xmas story stuff and taking in travellers that couldn't get a room at the inn. :)

How soon are definite numbers needed? I'm thinking about heading to this, considering how close it is to me, but only if my game is at a point that I can actually play to a handicap. Which before I blew out my knee, seemed like an easy aim... But now, it depends how soon the physio can clear me to start swinging again.

Cosmopolite
17th January 2012, 11:19 PM

these champs are not about playing to handicap. In fact, doing that is going to go close to winning. It is about being there and having fun. Sign up and forget about the golf.

Fair enough. Sounds like a lot of fun. Guess I misjudged the vibe of the weekend. Count me in! I'll start working on the pants straight away. Just so I know, how low is the bar currently set for loud/ugly pants day? Are there pictures of previous winners (losers?)? I may not be able to play golf, but I can sure look like an idiot pretty good when required.

It's not the pain that's keeping me off the course. After dislocating the kneecap like I did, the worst thing I can do to that leg while it is healing it twisting motions. So the golf swing is out for a while. And even then, it may be a case of re-training my body for a while, because I'm sure I will be subconsciously trying to protect that knee. But I'm sure I'll be able to sort out sufficient drugs...

I'm looking forward to the extra-curricular activities as I've got my pants sorted, and if my golf continues like it has I'll be nowhere near contention Sunday. Might be a few points back after Saturday if I'm allowed to play 36 holes and combine my stableford scores.

1) it's more fun and
2) no pants will ever be uglier than Haystacks' last year!

Fashions are fickle and 'bogan chic' of 2011 may be just plain 'bogan' in 2012.
Bravo Haystacks for getting under the radar and pulling it off.

The ugly pants should be canned as we can't look like a bunch of complete yobbo's. To give the award for those crap chenille pants was wrong in many ways.

I thought Haystacks was a homeless person that had wandered onto the golf course?

I dont think you would get the ugly pants cancelled anyway, for a start I have already made investments for something special, but at least it wont be something ridiculous like bright yellow and red combo!

I can't remember seeing one for ages, but we should have one with those that wanted to play and those that have confirmed by paying the deposit.

We always have more that leave their commitment until later, although I think it is frowned upon this time as bookings need to be confirmed.

The remaining player list will be culled in line with the accommodation cut-off of 31st July. That will at least provide the course with sufficient time to resell the extra tee times. They've always done the right thing by us so I don't want to burn them, even if it may be our last year there.
