Congrats to all, it was a great atmosphere! The Japanese nail work was simply amazing, it was almost a story in itself, the colours, the depth of work and attention to detail is incredible.

i took lots of pics of the fantasy nail art....when my poorly laptop is well Ill post them up..It was really such an amazing day - I learnt SO much.
What I did notice was a lot of the oriental and american competitors were in teams (eg Entity) whereas us UK entrants were individuals.............well, maybe not.... it was Team Geek.
