Slight correction - Sam's result in the 40 minute race is correct but he actually went out in the "slow" race on Ratty, not ArowFish in the fast race as shown... He went very well too!!

Yes indeed.

I think also thanks are due to the gent (whose, name, i unfortunately failed to get) who came to unlock the site for us - or rather to get his colleague to do so, as he himself had managed to break  both his arms the previous day....

He told us he'd only got out of hospital at 4 a.m - and yet he still organised someone else to come and help him open the site for us, so we could have our day of racing.  That's truly admirable I think.

Perhaps the Club could put in a word or two of appreciation to his bosses?

Yes, will do. His name is Geoff Simmonds. I was in daily contact with the the good people of Bathnes Council (where???) all last week sorting out the details of opening up and closing down so I shall certainly pass on the comments.

Thanks Andrew - I think he did well to remember us at all under the circumstances!
