I can confirm that I have now purchased the prize. All I need to do now is remember to bring it with me!!!!!

Not sure that "Crabby Alison" is quite what I want to be known as, Baz, it may be misinterpreted!

Fantastic meet, once again. Thank you Ian for organising it once again.

The crabbing competition was a great success, although our original venue - the retaining wall between the Millpond and river - was fenced off so we all crammed on to the jetty on the other side which possibly stymied everyone's chances of getting a record haul of crabs. However, the winners were as follows:

2nd runner up was Dennis with 11 crabs
1st runner up was Jeff (and Jacky) with 15 crabs
Winner was Daran with a very impressive 19 crabs. Not sure whether being shirtless contributed to the winning formula, but I won't be trying it next year!!
