Dear Fellow LRC Tourists Past and Present

We've created this online repository as a place for us to organise tours, sort out games, upload swings and generally do all the things we have been doing via email and Google Groups. Hopefully this will allow us to create a complete history of the LRC with results and photos, and the odd video (but not the one of the Albino Gorilla on last year's LRC in South Africa).

Please upload any photos you have from any past holiday or LRC event.

Cheers

Laurie

About Lads Ryder Cup
History

Started in 1997 when Steve, Laurie and Chris Hubbardardo went golfing in Spain to Puerto Banus for a week.  Chris spent most of the week pretending to sip Peach Schnapps and Lemonade and then throwing it into the marina.  Steve and Laurie spent most of the week buying golf balls off gypsies to replace the volume they were losing every day at La Cala and other mountainous golf courses.



Constitution


We don't have one - but if we did it would be nice and short something along the lines of:

"Golf in the sun, no halfs, no shandies and no girls"

LRC PTT Update

By laurie - Posted on 30 July 2008

Gents

It's the PTT this weekend, and ex-Capt Blackie has just been round my house to interrupt my working day. So I put him to good use by getting him to road test a new putting aid called the TruePlane. It turns out he has the perfect putting stroke! No really he does! He left to spend £20K on a kitchen feeling very happy with himself.  Clearly once he's spent the cash the feeling will soon pass. My bet is he'll be a good bet for your fantasy league this year since he's been spending an hour on the range every day.

Cheers

Scores, Videos and Other Stuff From the PTT

This is ex-Capt O'Toole (masquerading as Smithy again).  I don't know about you but I had a great time at the PTT and thoroughly enjoyed the golf and the curry afterwards.  Smithy went solo (which he does a lot apparently) and did a good job of organising it all; he even managed to forget the longest drive and nearest the pin prizes like we did last year.

The "highlights" of the day had to be:

For those of you who did make the PTT, can you please be kind enough to add a course review to Pyrford Golf Club's page?

It would be really, really helpful and will only take a minute ;-)

Click "Add Course Review" on their page....and please be nice!
