Unfortunatey wont be able to make it.I have been to Birkdale a couple of times its a good day out.Hope the weather stays like this, although a bit of wind will make it more challenging.

I'm going on wednesday for the final practice day and again on the friday. I  like to see the yanks moaning like f uck when the wind gets up and complaining that the rough is too long.

we were offered a room through the buisness but at a cost of £250 a head we put are name down for 8 but not sure what days yet we were shown around the rooms (massive tents) last week there nice but not worth the £250 each the security bird on the gate was fit though

At 7.45 this morning Hoylake was looking very busy,even though it is still only practice rounds.With the weather as it is,come thursday, when the competition starts in earnest,it will be impossible to move.
