I am grateful to you for the British Open. I am not *quite* so grateful to
Roger who seems to have had an awful lot of "good ideas" just as I'm in a
blind panic trying to get Tour 1 organised!

they've been FREE. Also, I as a member of Shotgun, run the British Open, 
thus far an entirely NON profit making venture!

Publicised on email - thats an oxymoron surely ;-) 

> Do I hear an apology?

Yes, SORRY Nolan. I didn't consider the Open as a Shotgun Tournament -
just think of it as your baby.

I just don't like being lectured by players who dont *appear* to do any
organising themselves. Still... I suppose the customer is always right!

Workers of the world uniting

PS, Nolan, Did you get my email regarding getting someone from Leicester
City COuncil to this years' Open? They want to see a top tournament for
themselves (Hows that for brown-nosing!?)
