     Thanks Casy

    Don't think I will get round to it on 1st Feb, as we are being inspected this week :(

    I got caught out last year by the day.  What do you think the timings are?  11 am on the _____ until 11 am on the ____?!

    Jane I hope the inspection goes well.

    The usual pattern is a 48 hour period whilst it is the event date somewhere in the world; for the UK if the usual pattern is followed then 11am 6th March till 11am 8th March. They usually put the times under FAQ (still 2011 at the moment).

     I've not done this for a couple of years and found registration more complicated!

    I was wondering about the age requirement: I put all year 7's as 12, all year  8's as 13 and all year 9's as 14.  What have other people done?

    I am a bit worried that the weaker year 9's may struggle in the 14-18 group but not sure whether to change it.
