Hi All
Unfortunately due to circumstances outwith their control the Glasgow Berkeley have asked that the dates for the Thistle Classic be changed to Fri 15th & Sat16th of Julyand I have agreed to this. I hope that people who have already scheduled for the previous dates are not put out by this and can reschedule to the new dates.

As a good-will gesture I  have arranged with Stanley that all entrants to the competition will recieve FREE valet parking for the duration of the competition.

I'm currently negotiating special player rates with  both Thistle and Premier Lodge hotels which are a couple of  minutes walk from the Casino I will post these asap.
If anyone has any questios or queries I'll do my best to give them a quick and accurate answer.

I can assure everyone that these dates are final and hope to see you there.

Be Lucky

Hi All
I'm afraid there has been a mix-up with Stanley and the Glasgow Berkeley and I've been informed that the tournament will be run on Friday and Saturday instead of Saturday/Sunday.

We are thrashing out the new schedule with them now and I will post asap.

Sorry about the mix up

Warm regards
