[MR] A&S competitions

[Olwen the Odd]

OK, here's another iron in the fire...
I have often mailed or sent along entries in A&S competitions in many parts 
of the Known World (usually invited).  I seldom get much in the way of the 
paper work with comments, but I have gotten emailed with comments.  I must 
say though, doing it long distance has really improved my documentation!
