Contacted Hangus yesterday. He's still unsure if he can make it. If he can, then we'll be teaming up Phil.

Cannot wait for some Doubles!

I've just booked into the Lovell lodge hotel, which is just across the road from the venue. Reviews weren't all glowing, but as well as proximity, the rooms are ok prices.

4 weeks to go, I'm trying to figure out the best way to power-game the shizzle out of this ruleset. I may even bring a roster with rerolls :o

In the unlikely event that you are left with odd numbers then I'd be happy to 'do a Gav' and play two at once if needed. Obviously I'd prefer to be partnered as normal, but just giving the option if numbers go squiffy that I'd be happy doing it one or both days.
This needs to be a tournament in itself... each coach plays 2 games at a time!

It's an homage to the incredibly abusive, borderline racist, incredibly loud taxi driver who brought me and Pippy to the first CamDub. He used the F word as punctuation for pretty much every sentence, and kept roaring on about "FAAACKIN JAAAAG EX!" I think he thought we may have been visiting there or... Something? Still not quite sure, to be fair we where just quite glad we got there on one piece!

Sounds like most taxi drivers, everywhere.

We tend to just call them taxi drivers, saves a lot of breath.
