Participant Feedback
I thought the forum was a great success and provided some good balance and background on the advantages of bunkers, (I am a great supporter of these). I feel strongly that the official line “Leave Early – Always The Safest Option” – is overplayed and ignores the problems with this option. Regards and Thanks – Peter Chandler
