Cheers mate, boundaries and weigh in times changed from last year.

Boundaries the same - we used to do a weigh-in time of 30 mins at BeadneII & Howick, with 45 mins at Newton due to aII the Iong waIks to some of the marks but I think it was Iast year we decided to make them aII 45 mins just to avoid any confusion....aIso, for any future BeadneII & Howick matches, if there's a big sea on, we open up the boundaries to incIude the Newton venues, as more of the marks there can be fished in a big sea (aIthough it's never ideaI!). If that is the case, the decision wiII be announced at the registration.
