Pickering Match Bulletin:
The November results will be slightly delayed.
One of our teams had a target delivery problem which caused them to fall behind.
I, as the Grand Panjandrum of the Pickering Match, interpreted our rule that “our rules are as loose a politician’s promises” to mean that I could grant them an exemption on the score reporting deadline and have done so. Hey, what is the use of having power if you can’t use it?
The November scores will be reported as soon as I get the late submission.
Yours,
Hap
The Grand Panjandrum
