In short: Excellent event
In full: I've done this one several times now and it's as good as ever. The organization is expert, the venue is superb (lovely grounds of a posh private school), ladies doing tea and cakes, secure and fast baggage hall, nice medal, slightly lumpy course but lots of shade - nothing to fault from me.
