And all done. Prize winners list to follow from Gary and the cheques will be in the post soonish.

A long brown scarf was left, I have it and have a fairly good idea of whose it is, enter Perth and you get it back.

FIDE reports for the U200 and Quickplay are available through the link above if you would like to check it.

The games from the U200 will be uploaded as soon as possible and will be available from the tournament link on the Games tab or a separate link, keep an eye on here.

Thanks for coming and making my job easy, see you at Perth.
