    Hi all,

    It would unfortunately seem that being able to hold this very special event in 2021 will be a difficult task, certainly little chance of it taking place on the usual date of September 18, PJ’s birthday.

    No doubt if NSW (greater Sydney) does come out of lockdown soon there will be restrictions on gathering numbers (yeah yeah I hear you…even at the current number of two we’d struggle 😛 ) and trying to get a spot for a group on a Saturday will be nigh on impossible. Of course there is The Springs! Hahaha.

    Once we have a clearer picture of the future we will return to organizing this special day.

    Cheers

    A thought? Any way to run a virtual game online? if we had a way to chat, drink, etc while playing?

    Run Zoom at the same time as game?

    Riverside Oaks? They’d let us on a Saturday, and we did celebrate his birthday there once before…

    Just need to hope this lockdown is over by then.

    Agree. We can celebrate his 40th all over again. It will be a shame not to play it on his birthday (still a very, very slight possibility) but it should not matter when we celebrate it, just as long as we do.

    If there is a slight chance that we will be allow2ed out again, maybe we should just book something and hope for the best?

    As much as it pains me I agree with Barnacle …… can see no way at present that the game could take place on the 18th September given the current events in Sydney and surrounds….
    Options are wait until travel is allowed and then play
    Postpone until next year
    Or
    All those who want to play in the event do so by playing a round at there local on Saturday 18th and send Barnacle a pic of their card and a donation to Beyond Blue and a winner is declared…. True it won’t be a gathering and one and all would miss the cake provided by the good lady Chris, oh and the heart starter nip of something but it would still be a way of honoring and remembering PJ
    Just need to find my golf game in-between now and then

    Golf game? What’s that…my last was on 4/4!

    Some of us have to work on that day now 😉

    I reckon that we do it at RSO when things become clearer.

    We will celebrate!

    We were lucky to make it last year 🙁
    It is what it is and will happen eventually, shall miss seeing you all though.
    I don’t know how you all cope with lock down for this long, only into our second week here.
    Luckily I am able to work, 2 days at school and 2 days from home so have some form of sanity happening.
    Oh, I am going to attempt to make my own small putting green in the dogs paddocks in case our lockdown is longer.
    Stay safe everyone x

    Seems nothing is going to happen prior to Oct 18 and then it will be for 2 x Vaxx people. Thankfully I am in that group, so wherever it may be and whenever it may be, if I’m still breathing, I’m there. Unless of course, there are no carts.
