We win!

The mighty Chesterton Men (Ralph, James H, Chris W, Dave B, Me (special guest appearance on strokeside), Michael S, Andi R, Mike PJ; cox James T) powered to victory in Saturday, though admittedly not in the prestigious "best fancy dress" category but in the less hotly contested "novice M8+". I still don't really understand the category system (or care much) but I think it means we don't have any / many ARA points; and since this wasn't an ARA competition I think we still don't. Still I do (I hope) get a Pot. And we did beat the COWS.

Results (silly xls format, sorry).
