Re: Wednesday 2nd April 1997 (Series 35, Prelim 3)
James,
Thanks for putting these up. Quite a trip down memory lane. I had even forgotten what the conundrums were. Interesting to look back and see I missed some absolute sitters. I think I would score much higher nowadays but hey ho, I had my day and the important thing was I at least won a match. I should have won the second one really as well but them's the breaks.
One thing I was wondering - how exactly did you source the data for these? I understood from CDOwn that they didn't keep historic records. Just wondering how you managed to transcribe all this in such detail!
Thanks again
Nick
