He scored a creditable 4 points. Also great to see so many MCC members renew their memberships today - and a few new members sign up! We have more than 50 already and its not even the end of January yet! Hopefully we break that record this year too. Of the rest, Michael Addamo started well - after losing to Baron in round 1, he won the next 4 in a row, while Jack Puccini started with a draw with Sylvester Urban and continued on the defeat Simon Karumbi who recovered brilliantly to score 4.5 points.

Nice to see the two GAWIN boys continue to make the trip in from Deer Park.
Very keen.
