BDO British Open

Daffy501

Im thinking of heading over to this but im wondering if i can enter it. Does anyone know if i can or is it only residents of the UK that can enter.
I have emailed the BDO but have had no response so i thought someone on here would know.

What's the story with postal orders, I'm always wondering how to pay for these sort of things. Some places will accept a euro cheque and some won't. It would be handy as I think I have a few events entered and have to pay the IDPA for.

Anyway flights just booked for the grand total of €8.

Daffy501

On the entry form it says " Cheques or postal orders made payable to ......" so i went to post office and bought a sterling postal order for £11 and it cost me €17.

Thats how im paying my entry

Cheers Daffy, I wasn't aware you could get sterling postal orders.

I'll be missing Brosna, Caherciveen twice, and Tralee twice and possibly one or two others.

Add Cromane to that list now, I think that only leaves me 2 to play in out of the last 10
