Corin is Sooo Busted!

The rumor went round on Saturday afternoon that Corin was thinking of leaving early from the tourney. When "confronted" with this shocking rumor, he replied "uh, well I haven't really changed my plans, I was just looking into it. My ankle hurts a bit and I am not sure if I can play"

As the team was happily enjoying some team building and socializing opportunities Saturday night, the general thought was that Corin had realized what a bad idea it would be to leave the tour early.

Much to our surprise, at Sunday morning roll-call Corin was AWOL (for the Germans and other random nationalities on our team, this stands for absent without leave (absent with out permission))

So teammates, any ideas for an appropriate punishment?

Corin, can you walk us through your thought process here?

IMPORTANT Rules Regarding Tour Posts:
What goes on tour stays on tour, except for vague intriguing references.

15 teams* from all over the country came to Virginia Beach to compete to see who would be the top club.

The weekend was an educational experience for us

Half the team arrived Thursday at midnight. Despite the late arrival, we managed to learn several important facts:
1. Last call is 2am, but stores stop selling at midnight.
2. Some peope like sugar and cinnamon, others just like cinnamon

The remainder of the team arrived Friday
What did we learn?
1. Jemma is not the ideal person to have meet you at the airport
2. Some teams have good short corners

Saturday lessons
1. There are fines for almost everything
2. Maize likes to swim
3. Cola + Burgundy = Good

Saturday Night
1. 25%, I stand by my estimate
2. flourescent glasses
3. Nigel and his mug

Sunday
1. Corin is sooo busted!
2. Nigel is good at telling time
3. Craig and Phil can be quiet

We finished in 5th place, with no major injuries except the self-inflicted ones
