Anyone know any golf courses around swindon/oxford where I can go and play pitch & putt? I've got a friend staying who loves golf but I'm too crap to play a proper round and driving range gets boring after a while. We went to Carswell today and got told we weren't allowed to use the practice area, cunts!

Yeh you get a club (eg a 9 iron) and a putter for a 2 quid deposit that you'll get back if you don't break the clubs! Take your own balls. Tees, scorecards and pencils are provided. Take your own clubs if you want, they don't care. Dress code, not at all, dead casusal. Jeans, tee shirts, trainers, hoodies, sandals, whatever

There's also pitch and putt at Moredon considered more challenging than Coate and at Highworth....which is an interesting location if you like greensand scenery.

I'll go for some Ian Poulter-stylie attire, perhaps some pink plus 4's and a knitted jumper with a burberry cap?
