I would personally like to know how many of the
individuals expressing their opinions on Britdisc have contributed to the
organisation of tournaments or the tour itself on any level aside from reaping
the benefits of others labour. To name Ruth's team and infer anything,
joking or not Nicola, is shameful. One member of Ruth's team is BUF
president, another I believe is integral in the maintenance of britdisc
itself, another has recently organised Junior Nationals and is now organising
tour 2 in Banbury (a very central location) and the team itself have run
numerous tournaments including Nationals. Hand on heart does the team
really deserve anything but a vote of thanks. Here's my tuppence, go
organise a tournament.
