Planner's Comments

I am sorry and I was very angry with myself about the mistake of misplaced controls. I had put out the stakes only on Friday and ruined my All Controls map in the mud. The fresh map I used to put out the SI units on Saturday ,(and a few of the Hard course maps) were incorrect. I printed these from a file off a Back up Folder on my PC which was out of date. Lesson learned, destroy incorrect maps and delete out of date files.

Thank you for all coming after very negative weather forecasts and the rain in the few days beforehand, fortunately the forecast proved incorrect.
