Couldn't agree more, JK, Fence and Carol!
Good timekeeping is essential, and if organised properly there's still time for some chat. And good timekeeping helps those who travel a distance. Those clubs that habitually start late and unpredictably and/or have protracted breaks have lost my support over time, although I always give a club several chances first!!

I'd love to come over to Epworth tomorrow, but..
(a) there's fierce competition from Mike Nicholson at Barnsley,
and (b) the weather forecast is dreadful (which makes a difference to a long drive).

But just for future reference, how does one find the Old School Inn? Which street is it on?
