    You’ll have to ask the organisers.

    Are you joking Bas – they couldn’t even organise the “team” photograph at the end properly. they’ll never be able to count above 20.

    Mind you “G20” sounds really modern and buzzy – “G23” almost sounds too ‘calculated’ – as if some were excluded

    Ahhh but! You are forgetting that UK and USA might as well count as one… and am sure there’s some others there too who could pair up like sheep
