Mottram Hall
Bit of a brief resume for Mottram Hall as I
wasn't there so all info below has been kindly
donated by Capt.Steve, Thanks for that!
Only 12 turned up at Mottram - Lew and Mike
Gill got lost in Manchester! This was treated
as an official tournament. Following is the email
excuse received from Lew and Mike.
"Many apologies for not making it to Mottram
Hall on Saturday. Gill-boy and I arrived in Manchester
a little early so thought we'd test the knowledge
of some of the locals so drove around asking
them questions such as "do you know the
way to Prestbury and/or Mottram Hall?" .
Must say they at least tried to be helpful by
giving directions even though they hadn't the
foggiest idea where they were.
However, if you believe in the Chaos Theory
there is an upside to our trials and tribulations.
Our problems probably shifted the Cosmic force
balance just enough to enable Liverpool to beat
Chelsea.
Cheers, Lew "Pathfinder" Compton"
I won't mention that there were directions on
the website on how to get there! Anyway to the
winners and losers on the day,
Winner - Peter Fahy - 33 points
Spoon - John Robinson - 16 points
The FFGS Championship 2006
in Mallorca
message
from our Captain, so we'd better listen!
"Right guys, the event of the decade is fast approaching
so I thought I would write you all a note just
to remind you of the obvious. It's not that I don't
trust you, but I don't trust you!!!!! So please
read the following points carefully and try to
fully digest them. Thank you.
1. We are going to Mallorca, which is the same
as Majorca, and we are staying at the Sol Magaluf
Park Hotel, in the centre of Magaluf, on a half
board basis. Tel no: 0034 971 130 950
2. Please be at the Cross House pub for 4.50 am
on Wednesday 10th May. The coach will leave at
5.00 am. Glen, as you are travelling from home
to the airport ( its Liverpool, by the way ), check
in is at 6.00 am, the plane leaves at 8.00 am.
3. Don't forget your passports, money, golf clubs
or holiday insurance. These are essential.
4. Do not bring trolleys. You can hire them at
the courses if you wish.
5. You will be given your F.F.G.S. golf shirt,
to be worn by all on the final day, on the coach.
Have a bag handy to put it in. It is a lovely shade
of **** and I advise black trousers to compliment
it.
6. Ian Milne will be collecting £20 from
everyone on the coach for the shirt and coach fees.
7. There will be the usual quiz and overall position
prediction competition.
That will do for now. See you all in 2 weeks."
