    Anyway Mr Fixit. Shouldn't you be fleecing the aged locals near you as in previous years with the old -

    That's typical isn't it - you hear nothing from the Rivvy Lads for days - and then you get three all come together.

    Just like the No3 bus !

    My response could be ready in approximately a few days after that..... ( given reasonable weather and a following wind )

    Rivvy synchronisation sounds good - and needs doing in the last week of every month!

    .but don't forget to take your MPL pistols to the range - no good if you all forget them together!

    I hope to do a small print run on the first MPL target stickers this morning - if all goes well I will let Ian have some to take over to Rivvy tomorrow and also take a few down to Rossendale tonight for everyone to see.

    If all is OK, then I will print enough for Round 1 ( only two weeks away) so please let me have some names for the Rivvy shooters that have been conned into having a go so I know how many to print.

    I will get the RMTC names tonight. Please let me know what pistols are being used - partly because I am interested to find out peoples final choice, but also to make sure they comply and to make sure the cards are correctly scored.


    I can print as many as are needed, so keep finding those new recruits so we can build the MPL up a little more each month and make it work.

    I will get a list of names off the notice board (theres an advert there) of those entering the MPL when I go up to Rivvi Weds night. Thank god we dont require photos.
    The pistols involved, so far are a couple of Mod 6Gs, a FWB 80, a Gamo Centre, possibly a 6M and I bet some hopeful has a Wobbly Webley. The club also has a HW70 and a Centre for non pistol owning members to use.

    Ah - good to see the "kicking" GAMO Centre mentioned.

    We have one of those as well. I will take it to the club tonight for some to try. What with scoring up and a one point bonus per card shot, the kickers are very competetive and it could be a close run thing between them and the recoiless MPL pistols.

    Hope you got your new blue holdall home safely - you should have plenty of space for your new pistol collection as it begins to grow!

    Enjoy!
