Of course there were others and apologies to anyone who feels left out.
I worked stacks of Europeans mainly EAs, on FT4 and actually on 10m, fairly unusual.
Chris, G1WSA , Saturday on SSB worked F4EKQ 5/5 and F4UJU 5/7. He says, “100W SSB from Icom 7100 into Wilson 1000 cut down CB magmount on car in my drive at QTH. Signal strength varying massively during QSOs. Reports are best part of QSO.”
We don’t get too many SSB almost mobile reports!
An unusual report from Fernando, XE1-REF, Mexico. I presume Fernando is a listener and I leave his report in the original Mexican (Spanish).
“Domingo, SSB. comments: Saludos Tony, por acá las condiciones son pésimas para la banda de 10 metros.-gracias por permitir contacto mesiante este medio 73 recibe cordial saludo.”
Roughly translated (by me) he says, “Sunday, SSB, Greetings Tony, for now the conditions are bad for the 10 metre band. Thanks for allowing the contact this way. 73 and a warm greeting.”
Gracias, Fernando, y un abrazo para ti. Si tiene mas contactos en 10m envialos a mi.

Not much footy activity for me to get worked up about. Personally I hope Brentford make it through the playoffs to the Premier League. They have a new stadium too.
After the first matches Swansea are 1 – 0 up against Barnsley and Bournemouth 1 – 0 up against Brentford.
There are return matches to play yet
