Many thanks to all for taking part, and to our generous sponsors without whom the event would not be such a great success.

Apologies if I have missed off your christian name or home town, I can only work with what is on the entry ticket.

One lucky competitor very nearly didn't have a prize to collect at all, as his name had not been filled in on the all important weigh slip.

But thanks to the Registration Form I was able to check who the ticket holder was.

Tight lines

Peter
