Felicitations to Robert Waller for returning to top form after winning week and month. Unsure as to why i ended up with mixing up two indies in Stamford, and given that the All Saints web music page is called saintsalive here are two interpretations of BWV 1057 |

Yes. Congratulations to Robert for the month.
It felt like a more predictable month than some recently.
I think a lot of us got the strong Green performance in the wrong South Staffordshire ward!

I would add congratulations to Robert for a typically masterful performance in the last week of the month. He seems to be able to turn it on whenever he really feels the need!
I "only" dropped to sixth thanks to being saved from forgetting to post Wombourne and so nearly dropping another 100 points - that would have dropped me to eighth. I would not have dropped below the two competitors who warned me of my error- that would have been altogether too ironical.One of the nice aspects of this competition is the way we try to look after one anotherin our unforced errors.

I would like to add that I 'liked' the previous post by yellowperil because of its last sentence, rather than its first paragraph! |

Because it would have been a) immodest and b) inaccurate - I always try and I usually lose!  |

Yes - there was certainly an advantage to be had in knowing which ward the Greens were targetting there 😉 |
