Prediction Competition - May 2018

[Robert Waller]

Yes, I fear my overoptimism for the Lib Dems in Sussex has meant that Robert has just nicked it. He’s difficult to shift!!

Not necessarily. I think a comfortable Labour win in Tamworth would mean Hempie takes the month.

An important announcement
We expect to be moving house after 21 years at the beginning of June so I will not be able to run next month's competition.  Provided we are settled in I hope to resume normal service in July.

Not comfortable enough for Hempie, I fear. Well done yet again, Robert

I need to raise an objection at being placed above Olympian - I think Oly is actually beating me by 0.1 so is 6th and I'm 7th!

[robbienicoll]

Provided there are no objections, I'm happy to run June's competition. Think I need to observe a wee bit after the past two months' bruising finishes!

I don't know what other people think of that but personally I think that's an excellent offer. I would certainly not want to suspend the operation for June if we could avoid it because once people break the rhythm of doing their competition thing they go off and find other things to fill their time with and don't return. It would even be possible that we could leave all results as provisional until such time in July that ME could cast his eye over them and give them his blessing?

[Robert Waller]

Excellent offer, many thanks Robbie!
