Report

Two dogs and Twenty Four people turned up to this evening's event. Sure it was cold...sure the Met Bureau were forecasting gale force winds and the possibility of thunderstorms...but in the words of Mark Besley "Isn't that the same as all of the recent Monday Night events?"

Thanks to Adam who had clearly put a huge amount of time and effort into preparing this evening's event and the soup, vegetables and munchies afterwards. The map was a gem - if you looked closely...I've blown up some of the more amusing portions below. Rather than have people hang around and get cold as they waited in vain for Peter Maloney to arrive (who by the way set a new record this evening with a 7:10 arrival) - we let people go early with instructions to self-time for a 60 minute run or 65 minute walk.

Suzanne handed in her card from last week - apparently she had felt sorry for this refugee of last week's event, little more than a pathetic scrap of paper mache and took it home to dry it and then press it to return it to a fully fledged control card (it would have been intensely proud of itself, but sadly it was embarrassed that there were so few squares punched on its front). She wanted to know if we would count it against this week's event as she didn't get a score last week for it. I saw no problem with this as I thought that merging her old card with her new card would just give her the same controls twice, but note that she gets an extra 5 controls if we accept this - 2 x 2, 1 x 3 and 2 x 4...sadly no 5's or 6's. Well done Suzanne...

 

 

 

 

   

Gary tries to explain why the timing system thinks he's Tanya

Adam welcomed people back with hot garlic bread - fresh from the oven Some people dressed quite sensibly

Some people didn't - but didn't seem to notice the cold

(Reflective strips are amazingly effective - we need to use more of them)
