Last thing I needed yesterday was an email from a friend in Sun City on a 12 day golf holiday. Roll on Easter....I'm off to portugal for some golf in shorts !  Hitting a bucket of what feel like snooker balls into a muddy field with a left-right gale putting a big fat slice on everything isn't quite the same.....I want to live in Florida.

Its on the coast about an hour north of Lisbon...great course, and quite good practice facilities...not been anywhere else in Portugal to be honest as I visit my parents who have a place there....handy baby sitting too !

hgreener   10 #631 Posted February 17, 2009 I played Tapton on Sat also. I Thought the condition was great also. One or two tracks from vehicles carrying out work on the Clubhouse. Sounds like theres some work planned on the course here soon. Fairways and greens in good nick. Blu Peter were filming some young girl with an awesome drive!!  TV schedule says that Blue Peter programme has a Golf Challenge on today? Maybe its this at Tapton?
