Morning.
I can’t play on. You have won very well. Again, I commend you.
Thank you.  Good luck and have fun in the final.

Thanks fir the words.
I am afraid I can’t say anything , as I can’t remember! Is bad, but I have that problem. I thought I was doing fine , with a good TUV lead , then bang lost Moscow and India on same turn. Could see it was happening. Perhaps, should have reacted differently. Was not coming back from that.
Guinea: just thought it was a waste . You always had enough TTs to take Solomons or Gilbert Islands . Seemed pointless .Thought it was better to have you worry that I could land anywhere , than throw away my TTs. Again, in the Pacific , after taking  the Carolines felt I was doing okay. Proved elusive. I am sure I should have handled things differently, but, ultimately, you were better.
I was bereft of ideas. You proved the best player I have faced in a while.
