Slalom returns - what on earth?

You think you had it tough?

Back in t'olden days when there were 200+ entants the start list had to be typed up on t'clunk-writer then duplicated out on t'old hand wound Roneo machine then stuffed in t'envelopes to be posted out (this is why we still have the 2 week rule for entries). Then the same had to be done wi t'results working out t'averages without the not yet invented calulator.

Aye - and had to dig t'pits for t'toilet tents as well.

Happy days!

Modified averages - ah those were the days!!

Try explaining them to t'yoof of 2day and they would not believe it. And all without a computer!

2 weeks in advance! You are having a laugh!

I really hope that people at Teesside are early to sort out all of the queries for the race this weekend, If anyone has printed out their start list ready for the weekend, I'd take a look at the one that is published tomorrow. There are one or two new additions!

And what do you do with entry cards for teams? Entry cards go to the divisional compilers, but I don't see anyone listed for teams.

As teams are non-ranking my understanding is that they can be filed in the B.I.N.
