Glad you had a good time, especially clerking. I've heard people say its either a blast or a drag depending on the judges.
And nice picks on the Phals. I love that bellina F3. I wanted to swing by on the way home from the show on Saturday, but poor Marlene had OD'ed on orchids and was ready to go home.
Cheers.
Jim
