Barry, are you changing the subject lines of your posts? It is confusing to have posts about a February 2017 event appearing in a thread about a 2016 event. I initially thought the earlier posts from Sean were about the 2017 event, then realised he was talking about the Feb 2016 event. Maybe a new thread would have been better. (Though even better if the event is taking place, of course.)

I think Carl or Jack amalgamated the threads. Barry's initial question and Lawrence Cooper's response were originally separate.

It would be a big pity (and rather careless of e2e4 perhaps) if Gatwick clashes with Bunratty (which is 17-19 Feb 2017 including many English players).
Can somebody please clarify, preferably starting a new thread?
