It is still not too late to enter. The entry deadline was just to help us, who have gone to extraordinary efforts to pull this one out of the bag, to get an idea of numbers. Depending on the level of entries, we may, at the descretion of the judges and myself, allow entries on the day.
When I say extraordinary I mean it. Any one else fancy a trip to Gloucestershire in a Citreon AX to pick up a gazebo? A serious amount of phone calls and mettings have been necessary to make this happen in six weeks. I know that all the judging team and myself are going to be bitterly dissapointed if, after all the whinging on the forum, about not having an R/O to lead us, too few people enter the concouors to make us believe that the whinging was not just for whinging's sake. As your keen and enthusiatic R/O how do you think that is going to make me feel? I leave it up to your conscienses to decide wether we have a late rush of entries. I can do no more than keep my promise to facilitate events. How the region choses to supprt me is up to them. To those of you already entered thank you for taking the trouble. We will have a good day.
