Prev: Good Luck, Sam
Next: the golf machine
From: Bill on 10 Sep 2007 05:23 Peeps, Forest of Arden was proposed as a venue and they have availability for the weekend of either 20 April or 27 April. Golf on Sunday, stop Sunday night, then more golf on Monday. Deal is for 2 rounds of golf, one on each course, the Arden course on the Monday. Cost has been quoted as £198 for a double and £134 for a single including golf, d b+b. This may change of course when I ring to confirm :-( In order to book more than 9 rooms I need a reasonable idea of numbers and how many people want to share etc. Plan is to book for 24 golfers. Tee times should be nice and convenient from what they tell me, but until we have things in writing I can't be certain. At the moment we can have pick off tee times. It seems a very good price for 36 holes and food etc. Please could those interested let me know asap and I can then get a better idea of how many rooms I need to book, if you could let me know if you want to share that would be most helpful. Seems that a single is basically £35 extra. Could you send replies either to the group, or to billatseddonendodotcom Looking forward to it. Bill

Previous quote was for 2 rounds on the Aylesford course! Now they are definite at these prices, per person prices, 2 rounds golf, dinner in private dining area and breakfast and full use of leisure facilities. £ 119 for a double, £ 154 for a single. To get decent tee times we would need to go on Sun 20th April, this would give us 12.00 - 12.42 on the Aylesford on the Sunday, and 10.00 - 10.42 on the Arden on the Monday. Phonecall was then cut short as they are having a fire drill! They will confirm via email. At the moment they have plenty rooms available on the 20th. 27th was not possible re tee times as there were 2 corporates on the course on the Monday.

From: Janet Homer on 10 Sep 2007 08:38 Hi Bill Thanks for all the info - especially email two!! Always good to find prices are lower than you expected. This is to confirm that Chris and I will be there, business permitting -should be fine, though. So, one double room sold. Love & peace Janet url:http://www.myreader.co.uk/msg/12323215.aspx
