Great to see you earlier my friend.
The only bad thing was that your brief visit just flew past far too quickly. Couldn't believe the step father in law landing and wanting me to drop everything. Sorry mate, and you're far, far more important than having to look at his bloody car! just goes to reinforce that old saying that you can choose your friends but not your family.
And I'd be choosing you and so many of the special friends I've made at The Hollow over many family members.
Was great to see you matey and Brem sends a big, sloppy doggy kiss!!

Bash mates are the Best mates that's for sure Tone. It was always going to have to be a flying visit mate so no need to apologise at all. Had a good run back and I got to spend an hour with Chris (Baldinio) this morning too seeing Boingermen between Bashes is a bit special.

"Bash mates are the Best mates", love it, Pauly.
That could stick, I reckon. Or, how about some extra 'B's?
Like "Bash Buddies are the Best Buddies".
Special friends for life, forged at The Hollow.
Great to hear that you also managed to get to see our Chris and, the other week, Chris and Adonis Dave, too.
You've gotta love a good Bash, but getting an extra mid-Bash buddy fix makes it even better.
Great to hear you had such a good run back matey and under five weeks to go to The Bash now, SO VERY MUCH NEARLIER NEARLY THERE!!
BOING!!

Well, (and sorry to quote one of my own posts) but I was watching the CountryFile forecast earlier and today's winds were deemed strong enough to have a name. So, apparently, today's was "Ewan"!
So the nest will be a girlie name beginning with an 'F'.
Could think of a few candidates......

Remember how you two had that mad frenzy of posting activity on the Bonfire Bash thread to take it over the 1000 mark? And that this activity took place well after our last meet?
Well, look at the post count now. Wth five weeks to go. The 1000 marker will be blown away well before The Spring Bash!!
BOING!

My HW50 still has not arrived from Sportwaffen Schneider. I am going to have to brush up on my German and give them a call, unfortunately all I can really remember is how to ask for bread with a meal.......
Mmm, I ordered a new barrel for my HW90 from them about 6 weeks ago, I got an email from them a few days later saying they have to get it from the manufacturer which should only take 2 to 4 days, haven't heard anything since I emailed them a couple of weeks ago but still no answer

To be fair, they were showing low stock when I ordered but after a week I would expect some sort of communication as to when I am likely to get the gun. Also, they clearly state that they will not respond to emails regarding delivery time scales. It's just sods law that I need the gun in a hurry for work.
I may just have to visit Slinger and borrow his HW99...... I am sure if I went round with a bottle of red and some JAZZZZZZZZZ.....
I didn't notice the bit about not responding to delivery timescales, that makes me feel a little better and explains why I haven't heard from them.
I hear Mick has a rifle or two he may lend you one. As for Gwyn, yes give him a visit but I think a drop of brandy is what he needs at the moment with that rotten cold

Oops, sorry, me wrong, should have checked!
Well, we MIGHT hit those dizzy numbers Pauly, we'll see.
But (and great news for us), don't forget that we only have two months' gap between this and the June Bash, so Uncle Mick will have to start the thread for the mid-Summer Boing not long after the Spring Bash has ended.
