    I think so too, Andy. When we act as a unit, we're pretty to watch.

    We need to set up some fund raising for this, asap. What can I do to help?

    I think that on this site we probably have a couple of brickies, a few plumbers a leccy or two maybe even a couple of chippiesand two or more plasterers.

    Pretty sure we even have an architect somewhere, and a lawyer.


    Wonder what we might be able to do with all these fine upstanding people and some funding.... BTW I'm already volunteering as a wood butcher/demolitionist.

    PS wood from up here is a damn sight cheaper than wood from the south n'all.

    All we need is a form of transport, some willing hands, a solid plan and some funds behind us.

    Terry:

    I had a long conversation with John Cooper of Falcon airguns about this,last year.He was hoping to get a side shoot running at the Ukahft events-a computerised knockover course,against the clock,all proceeds going to Stoke.Have you spoken to John recently?

    I am sure that I speak for the other Southern Hunter organisers,when I say that we would be honoured to run a side shoot at the next series-all proceeds going to this worthy cause.

    Let me know what you think,Terry.

    All the best,
    Graham

    I'm happy to pitch in with a pair of hands, a set of tools, a van and a spare seat for another volunteer.

    If I was to donate a case of 12 cans of moly dry-lube, is there an event that they could be sold at? Since I live in Devon, I guess I'd have to get them shipped to someone who'd be willing to take them along on the day. Any volunteers?

    Let's get this done and into a newspaper to highlight the good we can do.

    OK Guys,

    I am a sparks, or used to be and can generally do whatevr put my hand to as far as construction.

    I am willing to donate some time and get together with others from here
    to go and do the Auf Weidersien bit to help out these fellow less able bodied
    shooters.

    With the numbers of guys on here, I am sure we can provide them with
    a decent shooting range, cabin etc.

    Anyone else up for it?

    Neal
    I'm back.

    Do you shoot at Stoke,Ron?
    Unfortunately there are biggots in every level of society mate-you will find, however, that on this site, generally we all have a common bond-we just like to "chuck some lead" downrange

    All the best,
