Welwyn Garden City 2015 (Hertfordshire, UK)

I think I did, was it the one where a D or D' could solve a square and the there was another pair already mad?

I'm not sure but I'm pretty sure there was a pre-made pair, because I was only going for the single x cross when I noticed the pair whilst solving cross.

What do you do with your free time when you go a week without your cubes? It could be quite liberating (unless you have a few spares(I'm sure he does but it's more a theoretical question)).
 
The were 4 "Shepps" at this comp (first 4 solves worse but beat their average):

It was the longest I've gone without doing a single solve of any puzzle in 9 years. It felt so good to actually do some solves finally though. I was really starting to get withdrawal :/ Someone I've improved massively though, got an 11.01 average almost straight away, I think my fingers actually needed the rest.
