Three Weddings and a
Re-union
First may I wish Xbrorsen, Lorrrobb, and Jawall47 many happy returns on behalf of all the alley personae!!
May you all have many more to share with us!!!
Second can I thank you all for your most gracious and almost convincing <JOKE!> welcome back. Also thanks for your patience, I felt so out of practice and being called away briefly didn’t help. I will also apologize for the brevity of this write up, running the Ryder after a break is not as easy as riding a bike I assure you and I had to spend nearly all my time keeping up with registrations and results! BTW Cath and Joel please be slower next week I was still organizing round 2 when you posted your result!!!!!

Prelude:
Much birthday wishing and party atmosphere. Also a touching moment of reconciliation and mild panic for the director!!!
Act 1
Cath and Joel sneak an early lead for the dogs. This seems to set a pattern with most dogs reporting wins to end the round 8-4 ahead.
<intermission while the director leaves the auditorium>
Act 2
Minor development on act 1 with the dogs maintaining the lead ending this round 14-10 ahead setting the scene for a showdown in the final act
<intermission for more birthday wishes with scampi and champagne kindly provided by puppyfinn>
Act 3
The final showdown! Nail biting tension needed for an exciting climax. Both sides fulfilled their roles in this as we came down to the last table......much cheering, jeering and general background clamour subsides as the result comes in...the dogs have won at the last table meaning a joyous and I feel fitting TIE 24 all.
