Last weekend played both courses at London club , sensational 

up to trump international and cruden bay this weekend 

Great day for it today.  Cruden Bay is a brutal course in any kind of bad weather.

 I was a member at the London club about 10 years ago but packed it in as could never got on the Heritage as they allowed other members to book so far in advance on the weekend tee times. Other times there is a lot of societies creating 5 hour rounds . Still a very good track though .

Son Gual in Mallorca. Played it twice. Beautiful golf course and probably the closest one I've played to Augusta......................Lots of aeroplanes come over you due to it being on the airport flight path but you quickly get used to that.

Gleneagles Queens. Could have played any of the three but chose the Queens as considered the easiest. We played late September but the weather was fantastic. Played well, by my standards. Scenery jaw dropping.

Nairn. Loved Nairn, mainly because we won that day and a got a decent birdie. Great course too. Went a bit over the top on the night out in Inverness after it though.

Only played they new layout, but honestly it was mind-blowing.

I dunno why, but I found The Kings a real let down. It's about 6th on my list. Might be because I played absolute shit on it to be fair.

Got back  from Albuferia at midnight, Millenium greens were slick and true but fairways and approaches were rough, seems to be an issues with course grass matting , Pinhal the same. Old Course in great nick and with the help of Protestant Jesus I came 2nd, 3rd, 3rd and won overall. Time we organised a RM golf tournament.

Not busy at all, the patios and terraces were very quiet so no wait for post match bevy. Played Morgado and it’s a decent knock Thought the  O’Conor /Faldo courses are over rated and not worth the premium they charge but enjoy your break. Old Town was quite busy but not rammed.

Yes mate it was a pain in the arse but think it’s all changed now, we had to pre book a test in the U.K. before we could leave Portugal but I believe they’ve binned that now.

Don't think it's changed yet unless I'm missing something. Hopefully it gets changed sharpish.
