Lol! Did you not play the 2009 congress, Ian?
I recall it was around 120 degrees. Oh, hold on that was inside the playing hall. I should add the problem was addressed for subsequent years.
My abiding memory of the tournament, which I did not play well in, was facing Brian Bonnyman in the last round. I really just wanted a quick draw and home but found myself swealtering my way to defeat, wondering if I was taking part in an event held on the surface of the sun, while Brian appeared as cool as a cucumber in shirt tie and (for crying out loud) a sweater!!
It was a long drive home after that.
