[NSP] NPS competition results
I have posted the results of these on the NPS forum at: http://www.northumbrianpipers.org.uk/pipersforum/index.php It is particularly disappointing that after all the discussion on this list a few years back, and the expansion of the overseas playing classes as a result, this year there were no overseas entries at all.

Adjudication notes, where available, will be sent to all competitors in the above classes as soon as possible, along with the relevant plaques and certificates etc for those who weren't there on the day. The placed tunes will all be in the annual NPS magazine: the winner of the composition class can be found on..ermy Facebook page, and I am chasing up the dots for the 2nd and 3rd place, which I haven't seen yet.
