Many thanks for all the responses. In no way was this a solicitation or a finagle to get an invitation to play. I wouldn't dream of being so vulgar.

It was a genuine question to get some feedback from GCA'ers over the pond. Yes I looked on the tinternet, did my research but felt it would be better to hear it from the horses mouth, as they say.
