One of the disadvantages of living in the northern hemisphere, and in particular England, is that before the best golfing plans are made I always have to check the weather forecast the night before. I can put up with the cold, but I’d rather not play, than hack around in the rain.
High on my list of priorities then is a golfing break in warmer climes. Before I took up golf I had friends who did a golfing tour of South Africa, which at the time I thought was a squandered opportunity to experience a new country. Now I know exactly where they were coming from and would do the same in a heartbeat.
For those of you who feel the same way you should perhaps consider the Caribbean. Barbados is a golfer’s paradise and the perfect spot for Golf with excellent conditions and first class facilities. If this sounds appealing then you might be interested to know that British Airways is running a competition where you could win a week’s stay on the luxurious Royal Westmoreland Estate. The exciting bit is that it’s for you and 11 friends (if you win please spare me a thought – I’m even prepared to caddy).
All you have to do to be in with a chance of winning is complete 3 Caribbean, themed games, to go on with an opportunity to open the treasure chest. The nice people at BA have even included a Golf game - which should put us at an advantage! If you’re feeling lucky take the Caribbean Challenge.
