    Will there be a pistol comp this time Bob?(Might even sort out a rear sight for the Scorpion if there is)

    Hi Rich

    No mate, this is the sizzler so there's more than enough to do with the 50 targets on the main course

    Might think about a dedicated pistol though later in the year (I'll get my scorp sorted for then)

    If enough of your mob are coming up, how about kicking off that "inter club/region" challange we were looking at earlier in the season?

    Okey doke re the pistol, I appreciate the issues relating to organising events

    There was a lot of talk at the last SiHFT of attending the Sizzler - I'm up for the challenge!(assuming I'm allowed out of course...)

    I'm sure you'll be allowed out to play, you're a big lad now (or so spongey tells me)

    Now that summers out of the way (and that we need the practice for the winter league) I'm sure we can get this challenge off the ground.

    All set folks, course built and looking like a typical Sizzler course, catering confirmed, trophies in boot and passport control sorted for the Sussex gang, just hope they can acclimatise this far North

    Forecast is good (or at least the one I looked at was) and even if it wasn't, we've had worse, much worse

    Gates to grounds open at 08.00 with burger van opening 20mins later.

    Looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow and wherever you're coming from, have a safe trip.


    Bob, Neil and the outdoor crew.

    After teeny delay on the M25, I've just arrived home and had to post a big
    THANK YOU
    to Bob and all the BARPC crew responsible for organising and setting up today's Summer Sizzler.

    Great course and great fun, especially as I seem to be on the road to sorting out where my eyes are aiming the gun.

    Well done to all the prize winners (especially a certain CP who dared to steal 5th place from my grasp ), in fact to everyone who took part. If you weren't there today you missed a goodun.
