Tocumwal Diary with the latest on Lake Keepit.

After 10 hours of driving ,we are back in Tocumwal. The last hours from yesterday were a bit sad as a “shadow of bitterness ,anger and sadness” fell over the comps.
It was such a great competition!!!
And then ….we were all shocked , when we heard via the organizers and TC’s, that the Australian team did not use the track system the way it should have been done, thus having had advantage.
After the jury , several remote jurors and Gisela in Keepit, discussed the subject for hours ,…25 points for 9 day’s was 225 points lost in total for the team.
For some countries that was not enough. They think of the next step.

There are a lot of stories, the REAL story will be here tomorrow. One from me personally ,one from a combination of 9 TC’s.
I need one more night to sleep over it.
Don’t jump to conclusions TOO quick by looking at FB stories or “colored” stories.

All pictures and the full story will be here tomorrow too.
Here are a few already

Chrissie as runner up, ELENA as new CHAMPION and Celine as number 3 with a few of the 7 ladies receiving a certificate.
