On Monday I am going to visit Kookaburra to pick myself some new kit:
Blaze 1500 bat
Blaze batting gloves
Blaze batting pads
Pro D1 Duffle and maybe some extras

I also plan on getting the 2017 colour way of the Adidas Adipower Vectors

Got a trip to Hunts with @simonmay5 tomorrow

I'll definitely come home with (at least) 1 new bat.

I'm likely to get a new lid too, as much as I love my Masuri VS I'd like something a bit lighter.
 I'll probably get either a Hunts (so I can be a proper FKW) or one of the new Masuri's from @Vitas Cricket

As excited as I am, the 5am alarm isn't the most appealing thing in the world :-[

I do it every day, would much rather do it for a trip to Hunts than just for work!

Hunts lid doesn't actually look like a bad option @WalkingWicket37 , looks like it could mate well with an old Masuri grille too if you're into that.

@edge that was part of the appeal of the Hunts lid.
I'm hoping the shell is fairly light yet well put together. If that's the case I'll put a titanium grille on and away I go!

Decent plan, be interested to hear if it works well! My first ever lid was a Hunts and lasted my whole teenage years I think, can't imagine they've got any worse put together since then.

@smilley792 5am alarm so I can get up, breakfasted, showered etc and be on the road for 6am.
I'm hoping that the M3 will still resemble a motorway rather than a car park if I leave early enough, but I'm giving myself plenty of time as I'll end up travelling towards London during rush hour!

The only bits left would be:-

Pads - like the looks of H4L 50/50- Phantom Cricket - Focus Cricket (new version coming soon)
Matching Gloves - As above.
New club Match Shirt
New Trousers (probably Addidas).

So I had nets a week ago, and finally got to test out some kit. Softs were great, and I faced about 5 balls with my new H4L 50/50 Pro.

Oh My God.

It's insane. I knew my RPC was a good bat, but it's on it's way out- this 50/50 was incredible, the ping unreal and the balance/pickup just perfect for me. Very very happy- I'm going to score some runs this year!
Thanks @Vitas Cricket and @hell4leather cricket !
