    Great!, I'll keep my eyes and ears to the ground then! See you in february
    Be nice to finally put some faces to the names

    ps, If there is anyone requiring a pick up from the North east willing to share the fuel costs, I'd be more than willing to car share!

    Within 2 miles of Jnct 6 of the M61 motorwayMaps/directions will be offered to those requiring them nearer the time.
    Price: £5 for the full days fun. Entry fees donated to charity. Snacks and drinks will be available.
    10am - till ?
    Parking is limited to 30-40 cars so car sharing would be ideal.

    It has been suggested we could do (fun) competitions over the 40 yards, consistency compts over the chrono, Bring & Buy (seller beware because the buyer can try it! ) Swop shop, etc.
    Is anyone prepared to do a demo on the stripping and maintenance of the more classic springer?

    Any more thoughts/ideas?

    I would think that any donations to the charity would be at the discretion of the buyers and sellers alike. Difficult to put an exact price to it as this could mean the difference between profit and loss. It should be sufficient to say that there will be a donations box available on the day.

    As for what guns to bring. I will be bringing the latest addition to my collection an Anschiana 250 , maybe a BSF model 65, if I can find one, a prototype Webley Omega fitted with an adjustable gas ram, a Sharp Pan Target a .. .

    A lot of interest has already been shown. Hopefully, if successful this will become a regular (winter) event.
