Congratulations to all who won prizes, and I am proud to report that my Redhill compadres came away with 5, punching above our weight !
Big up to Geoff Jukes (S/F), Colin Robbins (Q/F) David Jones (Last 16), Sue Oakley (Special Lady Award) and the irrepressible Max Burt (Most Meritorious Performance). This was most deserved as he was one of the 28 early stage Group Winners, the other 27 all being recognised 'big names'. Also in our party Gary Powell and Karen Bacchus reached the last 8 of the Plate and John Miller, Jim Balchin and of course Max made the last 32 of the main competition.
A final word on the late Sunday-night Karaoke with good efforts from the usual suspects (Ash, Joe O with Martin Cole, KT, Curt, Nigel, Martin Smith) as well as Hoppo, Jim 'Johnny Cash' Balchin, the Ingram brood and "Elvis plus Gin and Tonic" from Guernsey. But this year it was young Max who stole the show, giving a highly entertaining rendition of Shania Twain's "Man I Feel Like A Woman" with good body movements which will stay in the memory for many years to come !!
