I have a head cold, so I'm not going to the @FoursHead prize giving tonight. I did manage to get the blades done in time. Congratulations to all winners, not just the top events who get blades.

Wow. Without the new Junior 4s Head the @FoursHead would this year have been turning away over 150 crews. And with the @VetFoursHead on the Sunday there will be nearly 1000 crews competing next weekend. Fingers crossed the weather gods behave.
