I agree. We are meeting well before REMF 10 to discuss this exact thing. REMF has now moved on from a blinding light of brilliance in REMF 1 to profitable but low/middle key events from 2-7 and then took off in 8 and 9. It is now a juggernaught and I suppose we are not professionals so it may...
There were snags last night so we have to hold our hands up and admit it. Lester the raffle ticket seller had to stop at half time as he could not go on as he has rheumatoid arthritis. They fact he came along again whilst ill is something that epitomises the fund.

The presentations were messed up and I hold my hand up to that. It is the first hitch we have had in 9 years. The raffle was delayed. Its always hard...
