Thanks for a fine event - first class as always. Green course was great until my demise going from 12 to 13.

Thank you and no worries my friend - got an appointment for 10:40 today. I would have loved to have stuck around to wrap my head around the Riddle.

Favorite comment from the lost boy scouts - "Man, this is harder than minecraft!"
