    oops, I hadn't noticed that. Not quite blowy enough to return your pellet though, just aim at plate or aim at edge of plate or aim at the air and pray.

    Richard-I am very impressed. The only one I have seen recently was on the Isle of Wight and that was an Indian replica. Rather like the Ivory Room at Osbourne House. Now-----a Bonneville. My secretary had one and and she is still working.

    Talking Are we nearly there yet ? .....

    OK chaps and chapesses.

    Course set - bar a quick bit of reed clearance and checking that the rabbits and rats have not eaten all the reset strings - we're ready whatever the weather.

    I do hope that it stays not too wet and not too windy. If we have both then I can see the winning score struggling to hit the 50 mark

    Please do heed Beth's recommendation that you wear nettle proof clothing. The stuff has only really started to grow properly in the past few days and those young leaves do seem rather powerfully venemous.

    Please also keep a careful eye open for trip hazards; they're there aplenty in the woods.

    As a gentle reminder PLEASE ACT LIKE DUMB CHURCH MICE at all times, but especially on pegs 1-20. This is the section of the shoot immediately adjacent to the main fishery 'serious' carp lake; and we don't want those guys upset - or we won't be back in this area in the future.

    Look forward to seeing you lot in the morning.

    Big thanks to Biggles and crew for a great day, weather wasn't too bad and the wind pixes allowed some great scores a brace of sixties and you needed to shoot 58 for a gold my 56 only being good enough for a bronze.

    Well done to the Buxted team a 59 and four 58s way to go.

    Now they are good statistics Plankton Brain.

    Oh big congrats to Biggles on another 100% and Fubar.

    Thanks Swallows, top fun and an excellent shoot as always, 1-20 down by the carp lake was particularly good.

    Hot bath and feet up after that soaking.

    As above really, greate clear rounds by Nick (whose last shot was the kneeler) and Biggles (Whose last shot was a stander!)...Cool!..Very jealous Spongey.

    High scores indeed...did my usual trick missing the stander... then mis-ranged a 15mm....Sod it!

    Thanks for the great show, never much fun setting courses and taking down in the wet and cold!...
    Horsham, BRING it on!

    Despite the weather I really enjoyed that one. No excuses for the 3 I missed though, all my own work. It is amazing how the brain can talk you out of shots, complex game this shooting stuff

    Well done to young Josh, he was shooting brilliantly in the wooded section, he dropped 1 or 2 in the field which were just unlucky. His score of 50 was good but didn't reflect how well he was shooting, well done mate.

    James, thank you for your excellent company

    Thank you to all at Swallows, a great shoot

    And well done to Nick and Mike, great stuff
