I’m curious what greens fees will do?  Continue to go through the roof?

£22.50 per month to play all six courses is truly outrageous.

You really could do with a geography lesson to begin with.

Great to see this!

I do believe there has been an increase on Edinburgh council courses, and it's tough to get a tee time on the courses now! There are also a number of East Lothian club members who are playing the council courses while travel restrictions are in place. I played Carrick Knowe the other day - it was heaving (in a good way!).
