The problem is that they didn’t lock down the time slots to only twoballs, so loads of people have booked as a single or a two, and been joined to make a full line of 4 by another pair. I had taken slot 1 and 2 with a friend I don’t live with, and we’ve been joined by another member plus guest. Who gets the slot? Our names were in first as we have slots 1 and 2 but I wouldn’t fancy enforcing that 10 mins before tee time out in the pro-shop

The people booked in to play know if there playing with more than the two households so they should have enough common sense to withdraw or re-arrange to a different slot if available. Its a directive that was sprung on all clubs in the interest of safety. Not looking to start a argument but it boils my blood when people can't be bothered to follow the directive. I was booked to play both today and tomorrow but due to the directive I had to pull out. Was I annoyed yes but it was the correct thing to do. Re-booked in a two ball for Wed.

A lot of her patients would be elderly too, and she sees the value that golf brings these people We actually think Golfgate back in August, ruined it

Send him out on his own and tee off 5 mins after him? I don't really have a problem with it as I doubt I will be in close contact with him but if everyone just ignores the rules the golf will be closed again. The biggest issue I have at the moment are the time slots blocked off for visitors. What am I paying a membership for?

Nearly all of the slots for the next 5 days are just 2 balls. Any of the full slots I saw have just 2 surnames. Comps on Saturday and Sunday only, 9 holes.
