Morsko event - results

[nurek]

Congratulations Gary! And well done Sammy (top Lady in HFT and FT)!

I will post details of next years events in Poland as soon as I confirm them with the organiser, however the autumn event this year clashes with the world FT champs...

It is probably because of that crate of 9% beer they had - that was very nice beer, does anyone remember the name of it? In fact, does anyone remember their own name?!

Keith

Its name was "Karpackie Mocne" (Karpatia Strong) and mine... ?!?

[Road Runner]

Thank you, Pawel.

Your name? The same as when you very kindly housed some guns in Cabin 14 to save carrying them back to the hotel!!

Well, mayby you made a mistake. If you just said a word to find some plase to sleep... but I afraid it would be a problem to shoot next day. As Aleksiej from Lithuania...

kinemax was a Polish gentleman - I'll just call him Mr Chairman! OK?!

Well done lads (and lass)

Did the language barrier cause any difficulties?

Did the language barrier cause any difficulties?

At least 50% of people there spoke English, some better some worse, but good enough to communicate and have a drink (or loads) together.

If required I assisted with translation which was not required very often.

In each shooting group of 3 with an English person, there was someone local who could speak English, so that communicating with marshals and so on would not be a problem.

Not a bit once we were there.

The Germans we met (every one a gentleman) spoke impeccable English. The Poles by and large spoke some and went out of there way to help. Those Poles that didnt managed to convey information with hands and a lot of smiles.

As Piotr said the organisation was exemplary, we were shooting with at least 1 English speaker.

I fell in love with Poland on a few business trips and next year we plan on going back a week earlier to have a holiday before the event.

If anybody can save up £200 it's a trip to be taken over 5 days or so, with Krakow and Aushwitz just up the road.

The next Morsko will be organized in this same termin like Worlds 2005 (September 15-18).

Next year Morsko will be organized on April 20-23 and September 21-24.

[Brian.Samson]

Sounds like good fun - I might make the trip over next year.

Although the language barrier doesn't seem to be a problem, I'm sure I'd still need to learn the Polish for "I gave that a yard of wind and still barely hit the faceplate"

Be sure to post up a reminder for next years event in good time.

Thanks.
