Wessex Region Night League Lymington Results

By Colin Hicks , 23 January, 2026

The event went ahead in the cold and rainy conditions.
Thanks to Kevin Bracher, Roger Pleasant and Bill Davidson for helping me to get the controls out there, and to Alistair Moir and Tim Gray who also helped to get them back in.

Other thanks to Steve Sutch with the computing and to Mark Light for his help with the map and doing the Racesignup stuff.

Thanks for the nice comments on the map and planning, and on the choice of pub. The food and beer both very good.

The results show I just about got it right with no one getting all the controls, but Alan Blanchflower got to within one control, and thanks to all who took part in the adverse weather conditions.

Kings Garn Gutter Results

Organiser's Comments

Thanks for coming to compete at our Kings Garn Gutter event yesterday. You seemed to enjoy Alastair's courses  despite the wet and windy weather. Just one piece of lost property was handed to me and that was a left-handed thumb compass. Please contact me on helenamandaaa [at] gmail.com (helenamandaaa[at]gmail[dot]com) if you think it might be yours.
