Thank you all for attending the final event in the 2023/24 Wessex Region Night League which featured the prize-giving to the worthy winners.  

I would like to thank Kevin, Paul, Steve, and Tim for their help in setting out and bring in the controls.  The Greggs School for allowing us to use their premises, grounds, and facilities.  Claire for her 2-hour vigil on the school gate which was an important part of the conditions allowing us to use the school for this event.  Allan for providing the computing and EMIT touch-free equipment.  And finally Kevin, Lou, Steve, and Tim for helping to produce the chilli which was ably demolished by everyone!

I'll try and post up a Routegadget shortly so that you can compare routes, including against Colin's planned optimum!
