Can also acknowledge history, a quick flip through two OLD yearbooks found:
Guess the years!
  1. Ruth Paterson LK1
  2. Andrew Rance MK1
  3. Alan Adams MK1
  4. Paul Bolton MK1
  5. Paul Burdett MK1
  6. Mark Poole MK1
  7. Alexander Baird MK1
  8. Russell Garlick MK1
  9. David Swift MK1
  10. Douglas Baird MK1 Vets
(beware of nit pickers with last century yearbooks)
Then later
  1. Simon Pearson MK1
  2. P. Mineards / S. Pearson C2
didn't spot Alan that year.

So I will give you three this century (as I can not be bothered to look through more books).

I will also record here my thanks to you for keeping the opportunity for slalom both in Northampton club and at the Nene. I will now retire into pedantry and slalom accounts :oops:
All spelling errors are intentional and are there to show new and improved ways of spelling old words. Grammatical errors are due to too many English classes/teachers.
Old. Fat. Slow. Bad tempered. And those are my good points
