You can count me in. Looking forward to meeting up and hopefully not losing too many games.

I edited your post to make it more realistic.

Hi Chris!
That's still the favourite, I'll confirm this week.

All opinions welcome, and please all give a nudge if you are in touch with other possible attendees outside this forum. I'm looking forward to seeing all those who have replied above. I've private messaged others who have been to a recent UK Champs, and I've just posted something about this on the (a?) Facebook group. I think I've got a couple of my mates attending for the first time too.

Great stuff! Well done Ian.

OK, no replies of note so it is confirmed as Saturday 6 June 2020!
Still roughly noon - 7pm, can nudge it a bit depending upon people's journeys.

Are we hoping that this is far enough in the future that the whole Covid 19 business will no longer be a problem?

[iankay]

Hi John,
I still hope we can go ahead, and I'll wait a few more weeks and see what happens, but I expect I'll have to rearrange it for another time.

Ian.

Hey all, I hope this isn't a surprise given the ongoing pandemic but I think I'd best formally postpone this from 6 June. I'd still like to host a tournament in a few months, depending on circumstances, although I don't want to clash with the World Cup which I hope will still be able to go ahead. Chris, I hope you got a refund on any travel booked.

[Steve Camber]

Good call, a postponement is fine considering the circumstances.

[Lee W]

aye, wise call although it's obviously a shame... but will look forward to a late summer/autumn ukc!
