Superb tournament, probably the best I've been to.
Many thanks to Dries and Christof for picking me up in Calais and dropping me back after the tournament - very kind of you. Thanks to both for running the event, very good, great prizes and the chicken shack!
Had a great time, and cheers to the English lot for allowing me to tag along. Hopefully back next year!
