Do you have any idea of the full draw as yet? It would be good to know which bands are playing when.

 

[Kath2]

can't print the draw in case the adjudicators see it sorry.

 

[VenusTromster]

Blimey. I forgot that all these old adjudicators are now going on courses to get computer literate. I wonder if they know how to use a phone as well!

(I’m only joking - tongue in cheek).

Yes I'm sure our "old" adjudicator Glynn Williams would love you to tell him that!

Who's the other adjudicator and who's at which venue?

 

[I iNNoCeNt EyEs I]

It was a great night! Well done to all the bands that took part, I heard most of them... and all that I heard was good.. so well done guys!

 

[gawber]

Unfortunately I had to leave before the end because I was suffering badly from the dreaded hayfever.

Anyone got the results please?

 

[Cornishwomble]

I can't remember the specifics cos I was very drunk but basically Pennine won nearly everything!

 

[persins]

You drunk? You do surprise me!?! Sounds like a good evening though!

 

[I iNNoCeNt EyEs I]

I'll second Roy... I was drunk too and the only results I remember is Pennine picking up best Euph/Cornet/basses (I think!) And they came 1st at both contests (Again.. I think!)

 

[Feefee]

anyone know about the youth bands?

 

[I iNNoCeNt EyEs I]

Think Boarshurst won the youth!
