Grant, I played Cruden Bay TWICE in one day in August around 10 years ago.

The morning round was played in torrential rain in the teeth of a gale. I didn't break 100.

The evening round was played in the kindest gentlest warmest Summer evening conditions possible. I played around 20 strokes better.

A beautiful monster of a course. Loved it.

Do you think that when the Aberdeen franchise gets up and running at full steam, they might offer customers a special 'Eve Moorhead Meal Deal' ? 

Basically I see it as being a special deal involving the customer paying a fortune for the product and going home with nothing.
