The Fordingbridge Challenge was just that, a challenge to hold with potentially 140 attendees on line. At the end of the day we had 124 participants with Louis Rumis judging. Louis scared us a bit by arriving slightly late and we had not fully prepared our standby judge of Janet Haines so she was briefly thrown in at the deep end but fortunately Louis arrived.

Thanks to everyone for a fun evening.
