Following on from what was a very successful/eventful 2 days at the Celtic Manor, I have been asked several times is there going to be another trip. Well here's the deal.

Date - Sunday October 24th :arrow: Monday October 25th

Venue - McDonald Portal Hotel
http://www.macdonaldhotels.co.uk/ThePortal/golf/

Courses - The Portal Premier & The Portal Championship

Whats on Offer - Dinner, Bed & Breakfast all included as well as 2 rounds of Golf - Just your drinks to pay for & your Petrol to get there & back

Where is it - Tarporley, Cheshire

Where's it near ? - Located between Chester, Crewe & Nantwich & just 35 miles from Manchester, nearest Airport - Liverpool (John Lennon)

How much - £95 per person (based on 2 people sharing - room rate £190 per night)

Can I just come & play Golf without stopping at the Hotel - Yes, although I think the Green fees will be in the £50+ bracket, however they do accept 2fore1 vouchers

Will I need to pay a deposit & if so, how much & when - Almost certainly yes, I will advise later on costs & when and to whom the payment will need to be made.

How many places - A minimum of 8, maximum of 20

Are Non-FISOers/Non TFGers welcome
- Yes, if you have a friend or two that wants to come along they are more than welcome

Can I bring a non-playing partner - Yes, although the room rate will remain the same despite no Golf. There is a Pool, Gymnasium & Spa in the Hotel

I'm travelling on my own, do I have to pay extra or is their someone to share with - If you wish to pay for single occupancy there will be a charge (usually in the region of £35-£50 for the night**) however we will make every effort to pair you up with someone else on the trip.

Has a provisional booking been made yet - No, However if there is enough initial interest, I will make a booking this week

Will there be Trophies & Prizes - Yes, I will confirm what nearer the date - Probably 2 Individual Stableford Competitions & some sort of pairs/team comp. We may even dig out one of the FISO Tankards from a couple of years back

**I will confirm the cost of single supplement when I make the provisional booking.

Any questions just ask :D

I'll be provisionally booking 6 twin rooms & 3 Tee times later this week. I'd be surprised/delighted if we get more than 12. I'll also advise re: deposits & times etc when I know more.
