    And well you should be, Paul!

    Another new shooter, another new woman shooter, another new safe shooter, and another shooter for the Jan McArthur Memorial Trophy!

    You're happy, so am I, and so is Jan!

Because airsoft is non lethal, therefore inherrently far safer, she has decided to give it a try. We have been out in the garden practicing in the garage range. I filled the Colt with gas and its max 24 BB's thinking that would be plenty. As it turned out I had to reload once more Considering she has never shot a pistol or rifle of any sort I'm really impressed with her shooting. She was shooting at one of our old UBC targets on A4 paper held vertically. Out of 48 shots I think she only had about 5 or 6 complete misses, ie she missed the paper completely.

    Of course I'm biased, but I'm well chuffed for her
    Hi Paul.

    That's real good news.

    Even Helen will be having ago.



    --------------------


    & thanks Mike & Ian for the cheques.

    Just over a month to go

    Regards
    Paddy.

    Hi Sol,

    There are four guys from the UBC 10m camping - Vince and his buddies - so you won't be on your own.

    This will be their first UBC Meet experience, so please feel free to show them where the pub and the loos are.
