Looks like a good weekend schedule and great structure for the comps

We'll be running online sats from April onwards

being held in Tramore, a lovely seaside town right on the Southern tip of Ireland (Waterford airport and South!)


Anyone interested in an blonde away-day weekend across the Irish Sea?

I'll be there and looking forward to it!  Shocker, huh?   

If anyone needs help planning the trip, give me a shout and I'll do what I can to sort you out.

Places will only be held for those who qualify on line.  This is because of the cancellation of teams for this weekends event which has cost Blonde a lot of money.

I'll play the sats no matter what...a full package would be much appreciated though as it eases the pressures of us normal working folk a bit for me.

550 ME..sHotel 100 a night (?) for 4 or five nights and 400 for flights (euro's for all) so a 1300£ (roundabout 1700 euro's these days?) would cover it....a 250$ sat would give one in 10 people a seat.. (justabout) and you could run a few 22$ freezeout sats to that.

That would be my idea of ideal but it might of course not suit everybody.

Does this replace the Open scheduled for March (which I was hoping to go over for), or is it in addition?  If the latter, are there going to be any sats for the March event?
