In short: Great evening, well organised, very friendly.
In full: Once again a really good evening. Superb organisation, plenty of marshalls, all very friendly. Surface mainly cinder, not a surface I like but at least its flat. Def pb potential. Minor comment, medals are great quality, but same as last year, suggest having year engraved on back. (I know I can do it, but if this is the only thing I can find wrong, then shows you how good the whole thing is!!!)Excellent social BBQ afterwrds make a very pleasent evening. Well done A&FF.
