Well its not the second *ever* Lancaster rapidplay, given the events I played in during the 1980s and (early) 90s.

I've just got back home from the Friday evening session of the Blackpool Congress. I've picked up some leaflets for tournaments not posted in the Congress Diary Category that I will add in the next few days.
