Members of one of Leicester's oldest golf courses are preparing to say goodbye before it shuts forever this weekend. Western Park Golf Club is one of the city's two council-run courses, but earlier this year it was decided that it had to close - because it was too expensive to keep running. Leicester City Council says it costs it 拢123,000 to subsidise Western Park, which is twice as much as Humberstone Heights - the other council-ran course. Members claimed those figures were inaccurate, but the council said that - in the current financial climate - it was no longer viable. It means that this Saturday players will tee off for the very last time.
Also, a plan which would see carers exempted from hospital car parking charges in England will be debated in Parliament today. An MP is pushing for a new law allowing many of those making regular and lengthy hospital visits - including people receiving Carers' Allowance - to park for free.
And, as it is Halloween over the weekend, Jim, Monica, Martin & Nisha have been carving pumpkins. The best one was decided by a Facebook vote. Hear how they got on.
