After several pints of the black stuff on Friday night in the 'Drome, we decided that the next night out would be a pub crawl, including a possible round of golf down the welly road into town

So, Friday 26th, starting in the Abington Park Hotel at 8
anyone interested?


Details have been ammended, see my post on page 3.
now 8pm and the Drome

As you know, I'm teetotal, but I may come out for a glass of lemonade.

I think my chauffeur may be available too

Do I need to bring an MPV this time?

Don't worry, Di. I'm sure Trackside Taxis would come in handy if the weather is anything like it has been this week!

you need one of those hats that's got 2 beer cans on it so you can drink and walk at the same time

Not that I do this very often

But I have heard that the Crown and Cushion is a better place to start to avoid the 675 metre gap between the Abington and the above establishment.

Then (so I have heard) there are 9 well placed "holes" on the run into town

Perhaps the Abington could be the driving range for a few practice shots ?

Well I'm off work Wednesday & Thursday ...

Friday I finish 23:50

You need to get some practice in anyway. Then we can make it a Pro-Am

Owen was saying on Friday, that there is a pub opposite the Memsaab, which cuts out the long drag from the APH to the crown.
like the idea of using the APH as a driving range first to get your eye in for the next nine holes

Yes it's next door.... Corkers i'm told it's called

I also hear they don't sell pints Could be a par 3 hole I suppose??
Although (I hear from a third party or someone) they do sell "Slippery Nipples"

Yep I think thats the one.
Might be an easy start with a par 3 'short' hole then onto the more demanding par 4 and 5's
Can you make this one then?
