    Three Points

    All tables are now booked. However, we can put anyone such as mikemjm who might want a table at short notice on the waiting list to be allocated a table in the event of a late cancellation. Just PM your phone number to me if you want us to contact you in the event of a last minute cancellation.

    BSA Magnum .25 sounds very interesting, Blackrider. Should go well I would think.

    Will all visitors and sellers please note that they should be careful at all times when handling airguns and treat them as loaded until you have opened the breech and checked. We have a club rule that anyone who puts a hole in the wall, ceiling or floor will have to buy drinks all round. That could be an expensive mistake so please be careful everyone.

    It's black tie, and you can bring whoever you want, Robin.

    I'm bringing SPIDERMAN!
    Its not that he has any super human powers - its just that he struggles getting out of the bath.

    Myself and MallyAlly had a great time, got in early after slipping the door guys a little extra , so beating I.J to all the prospective goodies . I'm certainly glad we came. Mally and myself had a brilliant day all round. Massive truckers brekkie at the Hollies truck stop on the A5 to start us off and a few nice cold and very welcome pints in a nice pub in Penkridge on the way home.

    At the fayre I bought a load of old 1986/87 Airgunner mags always a good read, my sons can't believe how primitive these old mags are all in black and white. Also got pristine box of Sussex Sabo (WITH LOADING PEN ) and a very nice vintage break barrel Milbro from the late 20's early 30's very similar to the Diana Mod 27 of that time which shoots lovely after a nice session in the garden, both from Rivi's John (No City). Plus a box of Champion Polaris from Chris (HW Vixen) sadly still on the banned list but hopefully Gareth may be able to sort that .

    Did want, but never got my tin of much hoped for Champion Ballistic but still live in hope. I thought it was a brilliant idea and look forward to the next one.

    It was brilliant to see the AirgunBBS Cammo king Pad E again after so long, last time I saw him was when he travelled all the way from Birmingham to Liverpool Royal Hospital to visit me when I was laid up with a smashed knee and Pelvis in Jan 2010. So another reason to have another collectors fayre, its a place to meet old friends.

    Well done to all who put the work in to make this event possible .

    Excellent day out. Thank you to all who organized it and to my fellow travellers John (NoCity) and Andy (Amac).
    Im looking forward to the next one but must we wait really for Grayling and Mally to leave again before all the bargains are put out on the tables?
    It was good to meet some old friends and make some new. I resisted the temptation to buy any rifles ( including the Gecado 35 ) but came away with a few odds-and-sods bargains including a complete rear sight for a BSF!
    Roll on the next one.
