    Although I go on hols on Fri night, it's only a few miles from work so may have a late morning 'meeting' in the Brookwood area!

    Anyone know if there will there be any 'experts' on Martini-Henrys around?

    Is there a website? TIA.

    Edit - got it http://www.nra.org.uk/common/asp/Cal...te=NRA&id=2632

    And some info on the traders/sponsors here in the handbook - http://www.nra.org.uk/common/files/gr/Phoenix11.pdf

    It looks like........

    ..I might be going on Sunday and my wife and two tiny ones might be coming too

    I will mainly be looking to browse stalls/displays/shops for something to get the wallet twitching. Are the shopping parts far from the shooting bits? I don't want to put off two future shooters with big scary bangs

    Also does anyone know if there is an entrance fee to the shopping bit?


    Thanks Rich.

    I hope there's no fee as I have a stand there and don't want potential clients being put off.
    I am in the tent outside the main pavilion apparently.
    Come and say hello - I'm the one selling cast boolits.

    I'll be there on Friday morning - just for a wander & a socialise - I'll pop by & say hello !!

    Then Saturday - I'll probably be manning the stand at Andy Allwoods place (he's trading from home again & not @ the Phoenix over the weekend) .. so no shooting for me over the weekend !

    Not a bad idea at all.
    Seems a shame that we will be rubbing shoulders with fellow forumites and not know.
    What about sporting a carnation?
    Regards John

    I'll be there looking for 1000 of 38's+.44's for some guys in the club to try out and 500 of .44's for myself to see how they go.

    Hi Dan

    Andy is trading from home in Bracknell all weekend & is NOT at the Phoenix

    Looks like I'm being asked to lend a hand at his place all day Saturday - so won't get to see you at Bisley

    See you @ the Siberia shoot the following Sunday ??

    Roy

    PS all of the 'good stuff' will have gone Friday morning !!!

    Gotcha mate, thought you meant you were running his stall at Bisley.

    Probably wont be able to make the Siberia shoot, but will see you at the Melville shoot at the end of the month.

    No fees, well never been before. Its a great day out as most old hands know. Support the trade stands and my tip is if you see something you like then buy it then and there as ten minutes later its gone. Go and watch some of the shoots too.

    I'll be there Friday/Friday night but have to play cricket on Saturday for my son's fathers & son's match I keep seeing the ball as a rabbit crosser
