January WOTM competition Final week

First WOTM for 2018 and Wren re-establishes his position at the top of the table.  Chip gave Wren a good run for his money, though.  Dom and myself are joint third and YB has made a spirited comeback, having been a little quiet in recent months.

As usual, links to the month's FP, left alert and NiBs below and the full list of tickers will be posted in the chat room
