    Default Official VIC champs thread - Feb 15-18, Melbourne

    Click HERE for Countdown!

    Advance weather forecast here

    Please double check the table in post#1 to make sure your accomm and golf details are right.

    Thur, Fri, Sun accomm: andigolds Park View Hotel on St Kilda Rd. He's supplied us the very generous rate of $62.50 per person twin share, with option for people to room up as 4's for below $50 a head. An absolute steal to be so cheap so close to the CBD. No prepayment required, one person in each room to put up a credit card on check in & then just pay on checkout. 10 days before for final numbers is enough notice.

    Sat accomm: Here. 15 people officially booked in for Sat accomm. $70 a head.

    Fri golf: Southern GC. $60, carts are an extra $45, pull carts $5 hire. We have the last 5 groups booked from approximately 12:30 onwards. Should give interstaters arriving that morning a bit of time to get to the hotel, or straight to the club and have a quick meal or drink. Daylight no issue for any of these times as Daylight savings will be in full swing.

    Sat golf: 6 tee times, 12:00PM onwards at St Andrews Beach. Cost will be $85 & includes cart or $69-50 without. Please note if you decide prior you don't want a cart but then want one on the day they will be $40.

    Sun golf: Confirmed, 5 slots, 9:20AM to 10AM at Moonah Links Legends Course. Cost of $95 & includes cart.

    Mon golf: Spring Valley GC - 7:56AM hitoff. Cost of $82.50, no cart.

    So, a total of $200 for golf on Saturday & Sunday, with $20 going towards prizes. Or if you wish, please pay the full $342.50 for all four rounds golf, or the full payment for whatever rounds you are playing + $20 for prizes. Full payment preferred but instalments OK too. Final payment by 22nd Jan 2013.

    Meals / activities:

    Thurs night: Had in Lime restaurant @ Parkview Hotel. Chicken was magnificent but the Lamb Wellington is still my choice here.

    Fri night: BBQ and salad had. Some regurgitated. Andy has provided a conference room for "activities". They will be good fun and include the all important BYO alcohol (which some should steer clear of next year!).

    Sat night: BBQ at St Andrews Beach Golf Club. Drinks must be purchased from the club but we can bring whatever else we like. FG can get hold of some meat (stop sniggering you lot!) and salads. Need to know final numbers a week or so before. Probably around $10 a head to cover costs.

    Sun night: Was the awesome idea of Chinatown with beers @ Young & Jacksons hotel.

    With two INternational events in November, I'm sure come February everything will be back normal again and we'll be laughing!

    There was no scheduled maintenance activity conducted at Royal Melbourne during February in 2013.

    As such, there is little possibility of any being done in February 2014.

    This.

    Plus confirmation from Andigold who has been speaking to RM, there are no reno's planned.

    Everyone happy?

    The only renovations will be from Lefty digging one of the bunkers a little deeper in a fit of rage.

    In all fairness, all of the sand stayed INSIDE the bunker. More a transference of surface than a renovation.

    RM is on Friday, so I should still have at least 1 left.

    That's true. It was a pretty big bunker with lots of sand, so it probably counted as vigorous raking rather than renovations.

    I think the flower beds are probably in danger of a bit of renovation if the Cairns contingent makes its way down.

    There are no flower beds anywhere near the playing line at RM. You will have to pay attention a bit to notice the sand refill stations around the course.

    I want to see Lefty take on the bunker on 10 and fail and then watch his second shot.

    February is club championship time at RM. The course will be mint.

    Who said they had to be near the playing line?

    As far as Bob is concerned, the further they are off line the more they are in play.

    Just re-reading this thread for the joys.... came upon this.

    I certainly did take on the bunker on 10 and fail.

    My second shot was a 54° wedge to approximately 8 feet.

    I, of course, missed the putt.
