I applaud Iain and his team in their valiant efforts to put the show on, however after the latest rule changes I am not surprised that he has had to cancel the event. Even if there had not been any rule changes and the event went ahead as planned I suspect that footfall would have been greatly reduced.
I must admit that I am surprised that regardless of the changes the show apparently could have taken place as I am involved in a group which is an outdoor event, in water, has had its insurance cancelled because of the rule change and there would have only been 30-50 people.
I am sure Iain has had many sleepless nights trying to organise the show and only hope he will have another crack at it next year.
