This year's Robin Pearson Pot saw an exceptionally close scramble for prizewinning positions. Right up till the last session, four pairs were neck-and-neck, with Sheila Pearson & Kate Mole securing the top spot by returning the best North/South score that night. Colin Edney & Perry Vassie won the East/West section and took second place overall, beating Brian Thomas & Terry Harris by virtue of a superior fifth score; and in fourth place Nigel Marlow & John Smithson's fifth score put them ahead of Trish Frew & Jane Smithson and James Tweddle & Tony Reed-Jones.
Congratulations to all the prizewinners, and thanks to all the 21 qualifying pairs for a tremendously exciting competition.
