    Could really do with a warm, dry settled spell now to dry things up. How's the ground looking, Neil?

    You know it's nearly Bash time when Craig starts saying that he has to rush to put a gun together

    Yep. And you always know that no matter the state of unreadiness or cobbled together nature a gun he brings may exhibit, he'll shoot it brilliantly, like he's had it forever.

    Must try and have a little go with one of mine and see how we go; I wonder if I might be able to squeeze a play in for Sunday?

    I hope this weather sorts it's self out or we are all going to end up with hypothermia & rusty guns. Most of my rifles are still in bits, the way it's going I'll be lucky to have a catty in one piece in two weeks time

    At least I'll have the HW45 I bought off Nick

    Do not sell this man any air guns no matter what he says

    What catties have you got?

    If you're struggling for time, order up a new Wasp one. Brilliant service and will arrive quickly.

    I don't think I'll have bands in time so it'd just be a King Rat Cobra in my case, if a lift does arise I'll also delay working on the BSA just in case it should not be ready.

    A black widow, because that's what I had a kid lol. I see things have moved on quite a bit, are those Wasp ones what everyone rates these days ? If so which is the one to go for ?

    I recently bought the Enzo, which feels lovely to hold. I really like the looks of the Wolf, too, so will spoil myself when I can.

    I also like the looks of the Catty Shack Evo Ergo.

    I also have a Barnett Diablo and one of the Milbro classic metal ones. I have some Jack Pyke tubes to fit onto the Milbro which I'll do when I can see half properly.
