Dear Paul, I don't have much right to be "demandeur" - but as someone who has only made it to two tournaments so far, it would be interesting to know how many tournaments the other people in the table have under their belt, given the "best five" scoring rule.
Looking forward to seeing many friends in Bakewell next month,
Paul
