the Spanish Motor Inn

Very friendly people and a great place to stay!

[Sheroff]

Hi Martin -

Just entered (direct deposit, including the $20 for the CAQ). Looking forward to it, mate.

And I can also attest that the Spanish Inn is a chilled and affordable place to stay in Bundy - and close to everything in town, too.

Cheers,
Kevin Casey

[marlouc]

Hi All

Entries are coming in. As you can see Kevin Casey was first, closely followed by the illustrious Mark Stokes and Ross Lam. Junior entries have also arrived the first being Jeeva Praveen. We look forward to many more and be sure to book your accomodation at The Spanish Motor Inn.

The field now includes Brodie McClymont and Gene Nakauchi. So come and test yourselves.

Hi, I was wanting to register for the tournament but hoping to share accommodation with someone. I'll be driving up from Brisbane (annerley) so let me know if anyone is interested! Planning to register on Monday, travel up on Friday night, and back to Bris on Sunday night.

Good news - our sponsors including Des Allen and Co are coming through to help guarantee the prize pool. Best of all is that Australian Macadamias have provided 6 bags of their excellent product to be upset prizes for each round. If there is no upset I will be forced to eat that round's prize. Oh dear what a pity.
