Does this mean weigh in is 8 to 9.30? Is there just one weigh in, or a morning and afternoon one? | ||

Scotbasher - forever Member 59, 2115 posts | Its being two weigh-ins as originally billed, it may be a longish lunch break between the two though. | ||

 I am a bench-only guy Member 3, 10067 posts SQ 185, BP 175, DL 235595.0 kgs @ 140kgs UnEq Administrator | Any chance of telling us when the weigh-ins are and who's supposed to attend each? There's nothing on the GBPF website that I can find. The competition has vanished, neither forthcoming nor past, and while it's on the calendar there's no info there. Can't find anything useful on the forum either. For that matter, if you've seen an entrants list, am I on it? I posted a form and cheque in good time but (as usual for nationals) have heard nothing and it's not been cashed. | ||

Old Age Presser Member 75, 8082 posts SQ 0, BP 200, DL 200400.0 kgs @ 105kgs Eq | All women and men up to and including 93s - weigh in 8 - 9.30, lifting commences at 10. 105s and over weigh in 11.30 - 1, lifting commences 1.30. I couldn't find it either, but managed to locate the form I downloaded when I entered. Bryn tells me that's the schedule he's sticking to. And yes, Richard Booth is a confirmed entrant. | ||

Scotbasher - forever Member 59, 2115 posts | Thanks to everyone who helped out this weekend be it referees, loaders ang general support and it was pleasing to have a few new faces helping out. I think most people liked the venue and they seemed to like having the contest there instead of ballroom dancing. I was very grateful of everyone taking the kit back to the gym as I was absolutely shattered on Friday night. Well done to all the NW lifters who competed. | ||
