Right, let me put my cards on the table, I'm really very ill, but THE JUNE BASH WILL STILL GO AHEAD AS PLANNED .
Now plans are afoot for a well organised and well sponsored charity shooting event to take place here at Quigley Hollow over the August Bank holiday (25th/26th/27th).
I'm just supplying the site for this, but if the event goes ahead I'd be inclined not to hold a September Bash in order for me try to recover a bit and hopefully you folks could attend this event instead, so boosting the amount raised for charity.
Those of you who know me, know I hate letting folks down and this isn't an easy decision to make.
On the upside, none of this is carved in stone and I may make a miraculous recovery so I won't be making a final decision until late June, but I thought I'd better forewarn you.
All the best Mick

Really sorry to hear you are still no better mate. The August event sounds good, what's the deal with it? Who's organising and what's it in aid of? Anything I can do to help in any way at any time let me know. You work so hard on the bash events Mick even when you've been so ill you're a bloomin diamond. I'm sure if you need any help to make June or August happen the boinger collective will be 100% there for you bud.
Here's to a speedy recovery.

Well said Chris! We are all behind you Mick. Your well-being must take priority.
Cheers Chris, and cheers to everybody else for your kind words and PMs.
Unfortunately since catching a simple cold at the last Bash I've steadily gone downhill to the extent that I can only stand and consequently work for about four hours a day, after four hours my legs stop working and I have to lie down and sleep.
I'm told this will eventually pass but no one knows when so as folks are already talking about the September Bash I thought I'd better explain the situation and pitch the August Bank holiday event to you all as an alternative.
As this event is being held and organised by someone else it seems to be an ideal opportunity for me to take an extended break between Bashes to try to recover.
My only input to this event will be to supply the site, targets, toilets and firewood, as I did for the Chinese and AirArms owners club.
The August bank holiday event is booked by the organisers, but I think it's only right to wait for them to announce the event before I say anything on here.
As I've already said I'll wait until the end of June before making a final decision on the September Bash.
All the best Mick
Well Mick,
I'm very sorry to hear that you are still off the mark with illness, but thank you for allowing the June Bash to go ahead I'm sure that all the Boingerati will be extremely grateful
I would be able to attend the August charity event that you've mentioned as I'm on holiday then and would really like to give my support
All the best,
Paul

Hearing that you are no better is really upsetting news, Mick.
You're such a generous and caring bloke and we all owe you big time.
As the other chaps have said, getting yourself well has to be your main priority. Look after yourself and get yourself right.
As the others have also said, anything I can do to help in any way, please just shout up.
If the August thing were to be a go-er, can't see any reason why I wouldn't be able to support it.
Brilliant offer from The Unframed one.
As I say, anything you need, just shout up.
All our love from everyone here and here's beaming positive, healing vibes.
