Singapore G!!!

Well, the first (and hopefully not the last) foreign G on my travels. This place in singapore is on sentosa island. Gorgeous place, and of course - they have G, so full marks! They call it a resort - it has 3 courses, and a bar area....yes....a bar area! you can play a few holes, chill, have a beer, play some crazy D or P, and then crack on !! I didnt score myself, that would have been sad without my fellow G-unit - in fact i only played the first hole and then walked round the rest - up and down A LOT of steps!! (as you can see here - the proprietor was willing to take my photo!)





I was impressed by the oriental babylons!













They even gave you different types of balls and recommended one for each hole!!







Here is a shot of the bar area - very nice!
G-brief to follow, but needless to say it will score very highly!!(maybe a different scoring system will be needed?!)
There was no windmill...:-(















A final shot of one of the "gingers"!








missing all you guys - it just wasnt the same! They hold the asian tournament there, and have their own trophy cabinet, league table, etc..i say we get cappy gilmore out there to show them how its done...although not sure she would cope with the heat!!

Wet 'n' Wild!

The Cappsters headed down to "Crazy G mansions" for a final weekend of G before Jenster goes away on her trip. We tried to play on the saturday, but obviously the residents of Alverstoke aren't hardcore enough to play crazy g in the winter..(no pics as my camera was locked in the car.....that's a whole other story!)
Having planned this weekend for a while now, we weren't going to let a bit of rain put us off...we're FAR too hardcore for that thankyouverymuch!





So, we walked up to the proprietor, who was clearly shocked to see that we were asking to play. Nevertheless, she gave us our clubs and balls, warned us that the course MIGHT be waterlogged (!) and we made our way to the "warrior course"











It became clear very quickly that the course was in fact VERY waterlogged. However, this made up for the lack of actual gingers on the course







Pat here, lining up a shot, trying to avoid the countless wingers in her path. You can just about make out the Spinnaker Tower in the background.I don't think these photos show just HOW wet it was that day!......so maybe these ones will.....






















































A very different "Lost World shot" of the eventual winner....Cappy Gilmore. She scored 24. Pat came (again) a close second with 28, and Jenster was oncemore Crappy Gimore with a piss poor 34.
