jelly Feb 2023 1:57pm, 15 Feb 2023 4,725 posts	0 jelly There were tactics involved! I run a lot if zigzag races and it was finishing at 11 this morning and I knew from about 10:30 I would be free to get to grips with entering numbers! You get 100 goes so I just started high up ish around the 300 mark, and then worked my way down choosing 299,297 and entering as much as I had time for! The closest I had come to winning previously was picking a number that put me in 20th. The thing was as I’d systematically got a series of numbers that stood me in a good position to win, I actually had the lowest bib which was 202, at about 10 to 11, but at 5 to11 I lost that but I was also in 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th. So by losing the 202 that meant I was still winning!

Tikka Feb 2023 9:02am, 17 Feb 2023 413 posts	0 Tikka Sturdy have 30% off all winter leggings this weekend. I’ve been living in my Sturdy winters since October, and no doubt will be until May, so I feel justified in ordering two more pairs. I had trouble finding a design I don’t already have. 😮
Velociraptor Feb 2023 9:07am, 17 Feb 2023 62,662 posts	0 Velociraptor I was tempted to buy some more too, Tikka, because they've been my legwear of choice this winter, but I'm away for a week and don't want to risk them being left out in the garden again.
Tikka Feb 2023 9:25am, 17 Feb 2023 414 posts	0 Tikka Have them delivered to Tinks or VP, it’s too good an offer to miss!
Velociraptor Feb 2023 9:27am, 17 Feb 2023 62,664 posts	0 Velociraptor I did think of having them delivered to the ancestral cavern (neither Tink nor VP has their own external door). That would also give me an extra reason to pop up and visit soon.
