Paul Lawrie's Corner

[Dynamo]

See your point but wouldn't want to jeopardise it for adult members who want to play it for practice.

[Tommy]

Diamond's, take your son to the 6 holer next to cat and dog home.

It's a good introduction.

[The Boofon]

Paul,

 

I found the 9 hole course a bit tough for my 10year old loon, I dont see it as a course for beginers, to much water, will the water stay as a feature of the course?

 

cheers

Tell your loon to give up golfing. If he thinks that course is tricky he's got no chance on a real mannies course like Cullen.

 

He should think about taking up bowls.

Loved it, Teed off about 830, 18 holes then beach for food and back to golf then beach again.

Then up to Ross's for a crackin Haddock supper.

Those were the days.

Some hooks and slices fae you.

Nae ice-cream Tommy? The main reason to go to Cullen, surely?

Oh aye, a daily treat. Think the place was the Seafield cafe.

[diamondsr4ever]

Indeed Tommy, I used to go to the caravan park under the viaduct, stroll across the road, my Dad didnt play, but he would walk the course with me, my mum and him would go to the Oak for a few jars, and Id be back out in the evening, I was up there when I was 15 1 year, and ended up at some beach party, then a house party.......great chip shop and superb butcher If I mind right....oh fuck and the ice cream shop

[Tommy]

 

And The Crannoch, dinna forget the Crannoch!

Is that what was The Waverley ?

[The Boofon]

Is that what was The Waverley ?

Yes. The Seafield Cafe was only in existence for less than a year. Jack Grimmer's auntie ran it.

Stable Bar prior to that and Kris Cros bar thereafter. Shut now along with Seafield Hotel and never to reopen. Being turned into a town house with the upcoming Seafield Hotel renovations.

That caravan park you speak of no longer exists. It was and indeed still is the only place in Cullen where you can harvest magic mushrooms.

 

Butcher also now closed (both of them)

 

How old are you Diamonds?

I'm getting mixed up then. The Icer i went to was to the right of the square heading down Seafield Street.

I know Grimmer's mum and her folks - real nice people. I thought The Seafield was re-opening as a hotel

but with private flats in part of it.

I'll need to pay a visit, it's been a while.

Cullen Corner shop is the one you're on about. ice Cream Cabin is on left as you go down Seafield Street past the square.

 

Seafield is going to be a hotel but will also have two town houses for holiday lets or full occupancy. Not sure which yet. The old owners accomodation and the Stable bar being the two town house bits.

 

You should come up in a couple of weeks. It's almost time for the World Famous Portsoy Boat Festival again. Cullen will be very quiet that weekend so you'd manage a shot of Mable from the wool shop without anyone finding out.

[The Boofon]

Paul Lawrie. You are also more than welcome to come to the boat festival if you've a free weekend. I'll make sure you get in for free and you'll have a cracking time at night. :party:

Cheers for the update, my taste buds are flowing

[The Boofon]

Cullen is on BBC1 just now.

 

Antiques Roadtrip.

I might go and take my putter. For no other reason than to try to get this thread back on topic.

[reekie_dock]

Date is the boat festival? I may make an apearance.

 

 

Dinna listen to Boofon the boat festival is utter shit, place is full oh cunts through the week never mind when that things on.

[Henry]

Is there greenbeer available at the boat festival?

[reekie_dock]

I will be heading up to Cullen sometime this month anyways so will see ficht like.

 

The boat festival did sound shite last time round... however I would only go for pints and sunshine.

 

 

Lucky You.......................

 

Place is a dive if it wizna for my Mither still living there I widna be back

[Henry]

I hear there's plenty of folk visit Cullen because of your mither reekie min.

Aye fearsome ride thats why like. Its handed down from Generation to Generation oh Reekie's, big in the shagging game!!!!!

 

You couldna handle her Harcus from what Iv heard!!!!

[strachanmcgheegoal]

Paul,

 

You may not wish to comment for obvious reasons but did Murcar this week not prove the problem that Trump and, worse, potentially RA might have next month with the haar? Never understood why Trump built his Course there for precisely that reason.

 

Don't get me wrong, it's horses for courses. Loch Lomond is stunning but it's shite in the wet and it's a lot more likely to be wet there than RA. No easy answers I know.

[paullawrie]

Don't think the haar is a big problem is it? Played trump last week course has really come on since last year starting to play bit more like a links but still has wee bit to go

Is a retractable roof a viable option for Trump's course?

 

He seems to have done it with his heid.

[sooth_stander]

Paul, see this challenge match v Paul McGinley on July 7th at the PLGC? Phit time is the tee off? Are tickets required, given the crowds that turned up last year v Olazabal?

[paullawrie]

Match tees off at 1pm , no tickets required all welcome also trick shot show by Jeremy dale afterward

 

Paul.

[tommo1903]
