Round 3655 PIBGORN Results

[Tim Lodge]

I'm just paying a flying visit home between meetings, so please let me know if you spot any errors caused by haste.

A PIBGORN, as 6 of you guessed and Paul knew, is an ancient Welsh musical instrument.  Two players finished at the top of the leader board, Dan Widdis and Efrem Mallach, with 6*.  Dan is marginally ahead in the rolling scores, so is the new dealer
