In the end we had 10 players so ran it as an all-play-all. Congratulations to Dave Walker who won with 9/9. Well done to Mick Riding (8/9) and Anthony Sweeting (5.5/9) who finished 2nd and 3rd. Full details here.
Three players also got first time FIDE ratings from the tournament. Well done to Anthony Sweeting (1805), Steve Nesworthy (1505) and Dennis Hawes (1496) on their freshly minted FIDE blitz ratungs.
