Can I be in charge of the "Magic Sponge"?!
Fran, I'd have welcomed a 'magic' anything at 3 in the morning. Granted, the 'magic shovel' doesn't have the same sort of ring to it, but it would have done nicely.
Si, - it sounds like the beginning of a plan, entries don't have to be in till around the end of July, so plenty of time. My oppo from this year is already talking about going back next year and trying for 500, - since he's mentioned it I've spent a lot of time behind the sofa. A team of two was no picnic, and it was no co-incidence that the field of duo's seemed, to me, to be largely populated by nutcases.
