An unusual freebie autograph

Had a small package arrive from my sister this week. Our mother passed away in 1997, and my sister took her sewing stuff after this. She was recently going through one of mum's sewing tins, and found a golf ball dedicated to our mum and signed by Henry Kelly (of Game For A Laugh fame). Knowing I collect autographs she sent it on to me as it would mean more to me than her. It seemed a strange thing to have signed, but after I spoke to my dad it turned out they worked part time in the kitchen/restaurant at Denham Golf Club for 10 to 12 years. This made sense. I used to caddy at Denham Golf Club when I was younger, but never knew my folks had worked there.
