Second; Yes Aber my be isolated and along way from most people, but I was very grateful for the fact that they at least pulled their finger out and made a reasonable bid to hold a tour event. Tournament organisers, and certainly the tour organisers repeatedly get complaints against where the venues are. Well for all you Londoners (and it always seems to be the ones in London) there is one simple way to solve your travelling problem - put in a bid for a tour! Stop sitting on your well tailored arses, in the expensive shoe boxes you call flats, drinking bottles of beer with fruit in the neck, and organise a tournament; the venues are there, otherwise you'll just have to travel a bit further than zone 5 on the tube.
