Many thanks to those who agreed to help and worked so hard on the night. As the weather was good, we had a large turnout of competitors which kept everyone busy. Thanks also to Mr Hardy who let us use his fields for parking on.
Can I remind all competitors to fully fill-in their control sheet as soon as they purchase it from registration. This has several benefits including better processing of results and identification of 'missing' competitors. On this note, it is important that retiring competitors inform the finish station that they are retiring, otherwise a search may be initiated to look for them. This is no joke for the remaining helpers at the end of the evening.
One item of left clothing was a blue, youths, Nike sweat shirt. Contact me if it's yours and you want it back.
Primrose Hill is a rather narrow area, and the blocks of out-of-bounds and large numbers of paths add to the planner's problems. I had to use more controls than I really like for the technical courses, to keep you off the paths and into the areas where navigation skills count. I failed to satisfy my controller that the Long Yellow was challenging enough to be called a Red. However, the feed-back I had at the end suggests you all enjoyed yourselves. I was particularly pleased at the comment from Matthew Vokes on completing the Light Green 'Now that was a Light Green course!'
My thanks to Mike Smithard for his helpful comments as Controller, to Graham Sutton for organising, and to Graham (again) and Peter Sleigh who helped gather in the controls.
