Great write up Rob! You certainly did the westerners and yourself proud, great stuff! I've also have a gander at some of your instagram videos, some awesome stuff in there! And congrats on receiving the 5th Dan in the holy-land.
See you in Almere :)

@Dimensions Thanks for the write-up, Rob. I guess it was inevitable that since you had an Achilles' heel, you'd get speared in it. :-/

Maybe I'm being dim, but I was a bit confused by "Later on that day, after doing far too little practice. I was called back to play Miyu." You didn't actually say that you beat Mayu...? Are Mayu and Miyu different people? That would explain it.

In my first WOK, there was a "losers round", where people who lost in the first round got called back for a whole other new comp. But you got through the first round, so... I'm confused.

Edit: Wait, I read it again, and I think I got it: You beat Mayu, but lost to Miyu, right? Getting through two rounds is damn good stuff. Well done!

Well, anyway, sounds like you had a total blast. Enjoy the rest of your week, and good luck in the 'Cup!
Fear no-one!
If you don't want to BUY MY BOOKS 😉, then why not ask your local library to order them in, and read them for free? That would help too. Cheers!

Yes, I won two rounds, but there was no losers round (too many people perhaps)

Oh, thanks for the brackets photos - that's a really good record. (I wish I'd managed to get higher-res shots of the times I went.)

Oh, and say hi to Billy from me!
