wrong account and missed the deadline Goldy is a tough one!
Good news or the bad news??
Good news Jimmy Barnes playing same weekend as our coveted National event in the Hunter
Bad news. Accomodation is now stupidly expensive
Need ideas of some accom/ dinner golf venue for Saturday night up to say 30min for courses to make our new home base
If the dinner is already booked at Cypress Lakes then that should not matter. As for accommodation…. that is going to be a whole different kettle of fish. Generally when there is a concert on in the Vineyards, whatever is available for a roughly 20km radius is booked out. Even the smallest of hotels and B&B’s up the price and get snapped up.
If we maintain the current playing scenario, it takes roughly 15-18mins in any direction out of the Cessnock area. Kurri Kurri is about 20 mins N/E of Cessnock, but there isn’t a great deal of accommodation available. After that is Maitland at around the 35 min mark with quite a few hotels and a pretty good Par 71 course. To the S/E you are probably looking at Toronto as a place that would have the accommodation and once again,,, about 30/35 min to Cessnock.
OR WE COULD ALL STAY AT BLACKSNAKE AND THE GOOD EGGS RESIDENTIAL PALACES.
I’ll drop in and see Jimmy tomorrow and see if he can move his concerts to the following weekend.
Thanks Commish dinner can be moved we may have a great option sorted with Pigskins assistance.
Ill update everyone early in week

Who is going to watch this new show with a mini golf theme?? Have a watch and see some golf pros on it.
Golfer Girl, Becky Kay, some Golf Australia people.
Should be fun to see them get smashed up!
Could be a bit of fun..
On a different note, good to see that someone is watching the site and doing the clean ups in aisles 1 through 11. 👀 👌

Far too trashy for real entertainment.
Only if I’m desperate for something to watch.Don’t you have a few more series to catch up on like Fawlty Towers and schitts Creek?
I saw all Faulty’s episodes years ago.
Haven’t watched Schitt Creek. Is it worth the effort?Have you watched Fawlty Towers though?
It’s much better than Faulty towers.Far too trashy for real entertainment.

I’ll record & ‘edit’ view only.
Saves time & angst with ads & crap commentary. 😁Supposedly good commentators plus Sonia Kruger !!
I am in a happy place tonight. Today I played the Stableford comp at Heywood gold club and broke 80 for the first time in a proper competition. I didn’t break 80 by much ( 79 OTS) with 42 points, but I can say that I finally hit a score with a 7 in front of it.
Conditions were good, with little wind on the front 9 , but it built as the round progressed. The fairways were grassy and greens smooth and fast, compared to my home club. My tee shots were accurate, but still shorter than ideal. I got the hybrids to work today and hit more GIR than usual with my irons.
I hit 3 birdies, 7 pars, 6 bogeys and 2 double bogeys. Both doubles were results of poor choice on clubs pitch/ chip shots. One were I should have used LW to avoid the ball running off a green and taking three putts to recover. The other I used the LW instead SW for a full shot into the green. It came up 5 m short of the green, needing another chip to get on the green.
Well done! Its more a mental barrier that you have broken- so more to come!
Really good
Southport was excellent as always with nice fast greens
Carbrook was schmick 2 weeks ago
And I’m told Wynnum is in very good condition too
I’d hope so after this weather. Turf quality should be very good everywhere
Round at Southport today off 8 and I had basically blown it in 2 as I tripled the 1st and bogies the 2nd so half of my handicap gone!
Finished 7 over 44 front for 16 points and 6 over 40 back for 16 points also
7 pars 10 bogies and 1 triple
5/13 fairways – dropped 3 shots but also hit some good drives too – got better as I improved my alignment at set up
7 GIR – dropped 1 shot with a very weak 6 iron on 14, but longer irons were pretty poor today. Short irons and wedges were pretty good
2/8 up and downs
Thinned a PW attempting a 30m bunker shot on 1 which cost me 2 shots
0/2 from bunkers but they were decent shots just not close enough
0/1 PW chip – too short
2/3 LW chips – happy with that36 putts – 3 dropped with 2 3 putts and a missed up and down
Overall not too bad but dropped too many shots
Wynnum Open on Sunday and Carbrook on Australia Day next week
Out to 9.7
How are the courses looking?
Luci interested please thursday to Monday. Trying to find some sandgropers to come over for travelling companions
excellent!! Let’s hope borders are not an issue in October
