    The 6 yard testing went OK last week - so who do we have that would like to shot CCL over 6 yards at home in a "postal" competition?

    Just like the new 6 yard MPL series, the entry pack will include all the cards needed to complete the 6 month series, 6 cards per month - score them yourself and email the results in

    .just Ian and Stiggy so far then eh?

    The first week of June is next week, so this means it is Classic Carbon League time.

    Please shoot your 6 cards to keep IJ happy and busy scoring them for you until next month - when the process can start all over again.

    New competitors are welcome to join in as we have already seen IJ trying to find some more beads for his abacus and we all like to see him fretting away as he has lost most of his wooden balls ( and most of his marbles).

    Actually IJ is not only fretting, he is whittling as well because he is having to make the wooden balls himself.

    Turns out most young children are now using calculators from an early age and so it is getting harder to find spare parts for ancient abacus as they are now mostly obsolete.

    Calculators are a bit advanced for IJ ( he lives in Blackburn) so the struggle gets worse for him as more competitors join the CCL series - a good reason to buy or borrow a single shot CO2 pistol I say

    Question. One of the cards in a group of six that I received tonight is NOT marked on the back. Im not going to name the competitor to avoid his embarrassment.

    This is probably a genuine mistake in the excitement of the competition () but what do I do? Do I only count the five signed cards and probably effect the final outcome of the competition?
    Do I let the competitor shoot a sixth, signed this time, card?
    Am I being too pedantic with regards to the rules of this fun competition?

    Your opinions please.

    p.s. To save any confusion this is NOT the postal compt Im talking about.
