    He's keen, our Tone.
    Keener than a boingy thing, El Tel!

    At first I thought I'd struggle to achieve the work count but then, as usual, I sorta got a bit carried away.


    Thanks so much for the opportunity again, Terry.

    Oh NO, didn't realise that Neil had slipped the photo of me and The Pred in there!

    Neil!!


    The ponytail is for Trumpetier's benefit, just in case he's missing the girls!

    I've even ventured into the big city (Nuneaton) in search of a copy to no avail.

    When I do eventually find a copy Tone, I expect your article to be nothing less than a cross between War and Peace and Fifty Shades of Grey --- no pressure.


    I just hope you've pointed out that the thing that's made the Boinger Bash a success each time has been the great folks who show up.



    All the best Mick
    Absolutely, young Michael.
    It's the people that make it so special.

    I normally get my copy on my Wednesday off.....might have to nip to Murderhell WH Smith on the way home tomorrow instead....

    FAR too frantic a day at work again. Late finish, mental traffic (there seems to be loads of roadworks in and around Sheffield at the moment) and totally knackered, so didn't get there.

    Looks like it'll be Wednesday, then.

    Hi Tony,

    What a great review of what sounds like a fantastic couple of days. Your enthusiasm for springers and our sport in general came across as contagious.

    I enjoyed reading your report of the bash and the origins of the Quigley name, being a fan of both the film and vintage Quigley bucket shooting!

    John

    It's not a silly question at all. The publishers decided to publish 13 issues a year, and slotted the extra, Summer, issue between July and August.
