Thanks Andy. Islanders vs Overners ? you might be outnumbered <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D-->

[andyiow]

We may be outnumbered but we will give it our best <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D--> .

[Nev]

Painting and servicing targets for the Chester comp so that we have as few interuptions as possible on the day. No shooting for me this weekend <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_frown.gif" alt="Frown" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::(-->

As it's going to be hot and sunny, we'll have to make sure Ron doesen't jump in the bath with the Rat, that is once I've filled the holes from the bunny bash, why can't people hit the targets and not the back stops? <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D-->

Glad that the "back up boys" are coming in force from the valley and Andy you've given me an idea for our next comp, a team entry no less!!

Cheers all

Bob

[andyiow]

Its not only the rat in the bath that got shot up. IIRC there was a large plastic barrel just after that also with a few holes in the top <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D--> .

[Bob Ward]

Ouch!, I promised not to mention PaulW's range finding abilities again, well not until Sunday that is!!

[plexer]

I'll be watching the British GP.

[Chewie]

I will be at Silverstone <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D--> beer in hand <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_cool.gif" alt="Cool" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::cool:--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_cool.gif" alt="Cool" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::cool:-->

[PaulW]

A great day !! <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D--> even if Meon walked away with most of the trophies <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_frown.gif" alt="Frown" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::(-->
Bob, just to clarify I did not hit the waterbutt this time <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:;)-->

[Bob Ward]

That's because we left it in the car park <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D-->

Shhhhhhh!!! <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:;)-->

[SWAT Strachan]

Aye a great shoot! Sorry if we took all the silverware with us, promise not to do it again <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:;)--> But seriously thanks to the organisers for the comp, great fun was had by most (using my mate's left handed rifle with a blurry scope took some adjusting to...). Here's looking forward to the next Basingstoke/Meon stand-off <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D-->

Oh and top marks to FithPlaceRon... Gonna have to make himself a new login account now. Good shooting sir, a well deserved trophy <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_smile.gif" alt="Smile" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::)-->

[5thplaceron]

A great shoot ,and a great day ,mind you I don't think Basingstoke has ever put on a bum shoot , well done Bob and the rest of the lads for all the hard work that went in to it, where would we be with out clubs like you (salt of the earth you lot)I think I will keep my username because next time I think the place will be over run with springers ,every thing just seemed to click into place today (very rare )any rate thanks again Bob and the lads for an excellant shoot, cheers, Ron.

[andyiow]

A great shoot and fun had by all, 2 of the shooters from the Island were new to HFT and they did enjoy the day and will be doing some more.

Looking forward to a team shoot next year <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin::D--> . Any chance of te results being put up later <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:;)--> .
