Are those the confirmed teams Nigel, has everyone accepted their place?

[NigelS]

Nick, Jim Millward and Mark Turner are both unavailable so Dennis Atkins and Chris Reeves both make the final team.
For the ladies there are a few changes as a few have dropped out. Not sure what the final team is.

See you in a couple of weeks.

Hi Nick, what was the outcome of the Pairs suggestion. I understand you were all asked the other evening.

Messages do not seem to have got through!!

I did let Dave Alder know that I could not guarantee being able to go due to a problem that I could not resolve until close to the date.

As such I felt it was better to drop out early than leave reserves trying to make late arrangements and scratch around for a flight, fortunately it appears Leon will be going anyway.

Hi Nigel

Thanks for the info.

I think they decided against doubles as several of our team couldn't make Saturday afternoon.

Nick


Ps. That will strengthen your team, now Sav can't make it 8-) ;D

[NigelS]

Disappointing that they decided against the doubles, it worked well in Guernsey

Look forward to seeing you at the weekend

No surprises there then Nick.
Do you want us to send over the World Pairs champions as back up ?
