Michael Crane, Director of the British Isles Backgammon Association (BIBA) reports on the 2009 British Open held in the United Kingdom on April 3, 4 and 5, 2009.

It was a good weekend, bright and sunny and quite pleasant outside... and I saw none of it, being cooped up indoors for two days so that over seventy players could compete for the Casinorip.com British Open. But, I didn't mind. I had my Assistant, Deena and wife, Sharen to help me out and keep me happy and the weekend just flew by. The only 'problem' I had to face was the fact that the carrier responsible for delivering the Casinorip posters didn't! They remained in Coventry even though a second parcel was delivered to the hotel. Gilberto Nieto, the Affiliate Manager of GameAccount Global Ltd, Casinorip's representative was very angry that they failed to turn up but could do nothing about it. I did my best with a tee-shirt, but it wasn't the same.

Thanks for getting it online so quickly. Any faster and you'd have it on here before I have it on the Biba web site ;-)
