Episode 003 - and only minimal mention of the Open.

This episode is intended as a break from the madness that is Friday Night Lights, Redo (redo again?!?) and hitting refresh on the Leaderboard.

There's just one segment (and an outro), an extended interview with none other than Mr Gary Rees.

P.S. Fancy a little mixed pairs comp in May? CFL Series is back with two divisions, Rx and Everyday, so find a partner and head over to https://competitioncorner.net/events/16562/details
