Did you eat in the 18th Hole restaurant? It got a right hammering from Jay Rayner last week.

Which part of Canada? I missed a trick coming back from Vancouver after 4 years. What was I thinking?

Also BC actually!Which part of Canada? I missed a trick coming back from Vancouver after 4 years. What was I thinking?
Will you miss the Albion?
Mmmmm.....
I am always busy, even if doing nothing spectacular, so I never regret the passing of a day.
Also my autism means that too much newness causes anxiety. How I managed the Ajax trip last year is a mystery. I have @Hugo Rune and @Bozza to thank for that. Truth be told I heaved a massive sigh of relief when I got back home. But would I do it again. f*** yeah! Hopefully the next biggie will be an Albion cup final (win). We know exactly what pub to go to for pre match jollity this time. A private booth for lunch. OK, a private hut.
Where exactly? PM me if you're embarrassed (e.g., Mission, Chilliwack, or even Spuzzum).

Every day. But seeing as I usually turn up at the wrong ground I don’t think I’ll miss much actual live football
Sunday at WHL looks promising.

I can see us getting a fought point couple of points - doing a Jack the Ripper tour first to soak up the East End atmosphere before the 8pm kick off! I’m going with this girl I met online; she looks almost identical to a model I like. She’s sorted the tickets even though she said it’s sold out, she has a friend in Nigeria with contacts because he’s actually royalty - and I sent him the money.
Lovely!

Let's meet up outside Upton Park round 6.45. I think South Kensington tube is the nearest. Jubilee line. Could be emotional.

Nope, a bit fancy for us I reckon! Did find a cracking Italian place and a decent curry house though, and sunk a couple of pints in the Dunvegan

Nicely done! We did Old, Jubilee, Dukes and Kingsbarns - wanted Carnoustie but couldn't fit it into the schedule. Next time! Mid to high 80's for me everywhere off 12, I was a little out of sorts. Have Le Touquet next July for Captains Away Break and looking forward to it...
