    I have some questions.

    Firstly, is this Schoolies Week? This could be very important for Peppas's entertainment options, and it will be very important for both available accommodation and the possible price hikes that Schoolies may cause.

    Secondly, can I ask the SA experts to make some enquiries regarding the Lady Bay accommodation. Looking at their web site, the rooms don;t appear to be very share friendly. Fine for couples and probably families, but not so good for a group of blokes. But, they have probably faced this problem before, and they might have an extra bed option they don't publish. It was bad enough sharing the spa with Lager and 3pp at Coral Cove. I'm not sure about sharing a bed with Waza and Hatchman.

    Thirdly, is Wirrina Cove an option for any of this? I know the SA guys played there a while ago, and it is close to Lady Bay.

    Wirrina Cove I would strongly not recommend

    Overpriced, lousy service, crap condition of golf course and just dis-organised overall

    Gordon Ramsay should put it on his Hotel Hell list

    I'd rather my own room either way. Can't stand sharing.

    So 5 people would give us a room each at a fairly reasonable rate. I'm not a sharer either (except for the spa), but I'd pay that rate, assuming we have at least 5. How many nights are we looking at? Just the one, or two, after Blackwood on Friday as well?

    And this is the problem with Wirrina, this is the general feedback of the place - last time I was there with Coalesce after our round finished we walked through the hotel reception heading to the cafe', couldn't find anyone there then eventually one of the guys we'd seen at reception showed up to serve us

    It is a shame as it WOULD be an ideal Friday venue being in the same vicinity as Lady Boy making travel/accommodation a lot easier. To be honest I think I'd rather play at Mt Compass with cored greens than Wirrina!

    Blackwood still isn't locked in for the Friday so if anyone has a logistically better suggestion fire away! (McCracken - but that sucks, Sandy Creek - mozzie central, Victor - already been to, Willunga - always busy and tends to be a bit shabby, Thaxted - iffy!)

    Is there a minimum night stay?

    I'd be interested in fri night/sat morning fly in, entertain the masses sat and sun and piss off back home before any nastiness

    That's actually not a bad suggestion! Played there over Christmas and wasn't too bad. Would hopefully be quiet-ish on a Friday arvo!? (still hackers central there!)

    What about TTG? I know a member there. Too far north perhaps?

    Is really as trying to keep things southern to make accommodation, travel etc easier for people.

    If as it looks people are planning to stay in accommodation at Lady Bay southern courses are the best bet logistically - though admittedly Blackwood is kinda borderline! Down that way there's the previously mentioned courses that don't really come up to scratch, (Mt Compass and their coring has really proven a headache )

    Having sorted the two Champs venues which is the main concern, even though it is 'just' the Kitchener Cup on the Friday I'm sure you guys would like to play somewhere in a decent condition!?

    Can people start letting us know if they intend playing please!

    Thursday to Sunday. Not that interested in Monday but may be persuaded if numbers are critical.

    So who is organising the Monday round and is there a rough idea of timing yet? Flights look cheap do I might book in the next little while, or tonight.

    As you know I have put the word out and the feedback so far is for that morning somewhere not too far from the airport so a mid afternoon flight should be fine - but nothing is booked officially yet mind!
