Dear Ozgolf,

I've always embraced my inner wanker and fittingly I'll be dragging my sorry arse to the home of the WAnker - sunny Perth - between the 11th and the 18th of next month. I'm officially in town for a wedding on the 13th but have a completely free day on the 12th while the little lady is off doing bridesmaid stuff or whateverthefook. Anyway, I'll be staying in Aubin Grove which, while not very central to Perth proper, is rather conveniently located near all of the other places I plan on visiting. I may or may not have other free days also but that is to be determined by she-who-is-paying-the-airfare.

Sooo....

a) Does anyone want a game of golf on the 12th of April, bearing in mind that I haven't swung a club in forever?
b) If yes, does anyone want to lend me some of their benched golf gear for said game, as I am not taking my kit with me?
c) I'll be attending drinkies with a bunch of people I don't know on the night of the 14th at a venue yet to be determined if anyone wants to come along and be merry.
d) Adlo: Do I get a discount at your coffee joint? I'll need a regular caffeine hit.


Lots of love,
henno.

I am sure something can be arranged, I for one will be free on the 12th.

We could play marri park.

Kwinana or Kennedy could work. I am sure we can wrassle some clubs up, fit is having a sale soon.

I'll still be on holidays so should be a chance for a hit, provided family commitments don't intervene.

This should be a good gauge of where you WAnkers are at. If you clowns can't beat henno then you are no chance of getting your hands on the Nullabor Cup.

I probably need to play if I was going to... might be the first hit with the new clubs if theyre here on time.

Send them a Charter Vehicle.
They'll appreciate the thought and its cheaper than a cab.

Henno, you most certainly will get a discount. As you are staying in the middle of nowhere, you will deserve/need a discount if you make it to my humble coffee stop.

We are closed weekends.

I would be keen for a social hit on the Saturday. Count me in.

Good stuffs. This is coming along nicely.
It is worth mentioning that my GL number has lapsed, and I would be quite partial to a hit (read: spanking) at KB.

Won't need GL at kb. They let anyone on there.

Except Saturday mornings when they like to have empty timeslots and groups of two's not fours.

My TourFit putter will be available if a 36" putter is your thing.

If this is at Kennedy Bay I might have a crack at carrying 18 for the first time.

Just had a look at the golf voucher book thinking it may be useful for this. Offers a massive discount of $5 off the standard rate... They must have got JamesCC to prepare it.

Freo's greens were being done yesterday & today so maybe not a good option.

I'm still interested in a hit if he's not coming, if anyone wants to be seen on a golf course with a goth chopper.

Pulling a muscle in the showers is a great way to relax after a hard workout!

Edit -So I've been told anyway.

The showers?

henno

For the record, I'd never injure myself in the showers. What do you think this is, amateur hour? I am a man-shower pro.

I can't, however, climb a rope.

Henno was keen on KB I think. Kwinana was mentioned as well, which MIGHT enable those interested to get on the PGN comp (I've sent them a message to confirm).

If we can confirm numbers I don't mind trying to book.

For memory we've got Henno, Hocko, Zues and ID in. I think JC and Yoss might have expressed interest too.

Henno, do you have any preference for tee off times?

henno
9th April 2013, 10:21 PM
Not really at all, actually. That said, hitting off in the first group would suck a little as it would mean I have to get up super early while on holidays and I have nowhere to be after the game so I gain nothing. If I can waste as much of the day as possible that'd be perfect. :)
