Yes, count me in.
It will be 5 weeks and two days since I struck a ball. That was only nine holes.
So naturally, I will bring some very-difficult-to-play-with clubs.
And the yellow Slazenger bag and Bronty Dingo putter for you.

Really looking forward to this! Is there food available at the clubhouse/is it any good? That would be super convenient

There is food although I've never had anything more adventurous than a bowl of chips so can't vouch for the quality, but it looks like typical golf club fare.
I'll add you to the group @Voyager EMH

Be prepared.
The 6th tee is the windiest place in Leicestershire. Good job its a par 3, as it is into the wind.

And the front nine at Kilworth is notorious for getting the full blast of any wind, batten down the hatches!

Hope you had a great day @sjw.
Weather was just doable for the round. Just got the gear in the boot before the heavens opened.
And that very late equaliser just getting you second place back.
Great performance by the Ipswich keeper throughout the game.

Best day I've had in a while, mate.
Yes our keeper was exceptional and he kept us in it in that first half, and with that last 20 minutes I thought, "we're going to get something from this." We had to take the game to Leicester rather than letting them play, and that's what we did. Very reminiscent of the boxing day game at our place.
I bruised a knuckle around the 6th hole, no idea how, so now I've got two injured hands; I've got a lump on my leg where I smashed it on the seat in front when we scored; my feet and legs are aching like crazy, especially the left one where a previous ache has re-emerged (that was around the 3rd hole); and I've only got half a voice. All in all a successful day!
