So, that's another season done and, as is customary and with apologies for the delay, it's time to run the monthly figures through the abacus.
Like all the other games on here, this is meant as a diversion and it's absolutely fine for people to miss a week or month when the real world gets in the way. Naturally, this hits the accumulated score for the season but I'll let someone else calculate the average points per weeks played.
So, to start at the beginning...
August
A strong start from Ceefer and Hermann, one ahead of Mini-Herm. 4 players another point behind meant that it was all very close early on.
12 Ceefer 12 Hermann 11 Mini-Herm
September
I had a good month scoring 20 points over the 5 weeks ahead of Maccy (17) and Mini-Herm (16) and moving through to lead overall.
29 Archie 27 Mini-Herm 25 Lennie
October
Gazz (14) has his first monthly win followed by Mini-Herm (13) and Bradders (12) as Mini-Herm takes over at the top.
40 Mini-Herm 38 Archie 36 Lennie
To be continued....

November
Another strong showing from Hermann (17) but not enough to displace Mini-Herm overall. Good scoring from Lennie (16) and Bradders (15) in the podium places.
53 Mini-Herm 52 Lennie 48 Archie
December
Another win for Gazz (19) but Dudders (18) and three 17s keep it competitive overall.
70 Mini-Herm 66 Lennie 65 Archie
January
A big range of scores. Lennie and Gazz (both 14) ahead of Ceefer and Eppy (both 13) made it all change at the top.
80 Lennie 78 Gazz 77 Mini-Herm

February
Maccy and I both scored 12 but Gazz (11) takes the chance to go top.
89 Gazz 88 Lennie 86 Mini-Herm
March
Bradders and I (both 13) ahead of Lennie and Maccy (both 12) keep the tension going as things get competitive with joint leaders entering the home straight.
100 Gazz 100 Lennie 95 Archie
April
I'm getting into my stride with 15 but Gazz (13) and Ceefer and Maccy (both 11) keep going to leave Gazz with a handy 3 point lead entering the final furlong.
113 Gazz 110 Archie 109 Lennie
All to play for.

May
So, we're on the run in now and those with good memories might remember that Maccy and I tied on 11. Crucially though, Gazz and Lennie managed 10 to maintain their respective positions overall.
123 Gazz 121 Archie 119 Lennie 112 Maccy 109 Bradders 105 Dudders 104 Eppy 103 Mini-Herm 91 Ceefer 81 Hermann 54 MHH
Congratulations to Gazz on a fine win. A model of consistency with double figures every month. Another fine performance from last year's champion, Lennie, while I'll reflect on a very poor January which cost me a massive 9 points relative to Gazz and Lennie.
As I've said before, thanks to those who found the time to play and to Maccy for finding all those matches. Hope to see you all for next season's diversion.

Well done Gazza, fantastic consistency. Too many siestas and cervezas in the way of my challenge!
Massive thanks to Archie and Macc for maintaining this through the seasons. A great diversion!

Sorry, guys, I've been sat in the garden today, getting some sun and reading Horace Panter's brilliant book 'Ska'd For Life', so I've only just seen this!
I really didn't expect to be winning this one, but I'm seriously chuffed to have done so.
Commiserations to Archie & the gaffer for pushing me close, and well played, everyone else.
Many thanks for all your hard work, Archie & Maccy, it really is appreciated!
Shame I can't make a bloody trophy, I'm still waiting to hear about my PC, but the delay tells me it's clearly toast!
This is gonna bloody cost me!
