Assuming that it can not be made available online I can walk down there in my lunch hour, pick one up for you and post it to you.

What, the Junior Edge Team? Don't do yourself down Liam - you can krank with the best of them.... get yourself down and beast it! Don't forget it's cheaper to pre-register, than doing it on the day.
