Seems like that was a good weekend for me.

As an aside, are we having any dropped scores in this as we did last year? Otherwise, me missing the last round in Belgium will hit hard...

Yep. Dropped scores are happening!

Have we caught up? I still have Austria,Britain,Hungary and Belgium missing...

Nope, those are still outstanding. People are doing this voluntarily in their own free time. The results will appear whenever they are ready.

That's fine-no problem and very much appreciated Just checking that since Batty's post said 'We caught up', I thought I might have missed a post or it wasn't showing
