Sorry, PB, I didn't mean to imply that the 50% who are full-timers don't deserve the same weighting as part-timers.

What I meant to get across is that by holding the Senior Games at the normal time - which has generally been late March or early April - they would have double the potential number of entrants for basically the same amount of organisational effort.
