    Great day catching up with those I managed to speak to, and hopefully see all of you again before the year is out. Big thanks to Neil for his ongoing mammoth efforts to keep the bash running, and impeccably well too
    Lovely to see you, Wills. I didn't realise we had goodies in the tent until we were packing up on Sunday afternoon. Thank you.

    And are you saying "the other Ray" is still a cult?

    Smile New job -Yay!

    Oh yes, indeedy, all official now.

    Got confirmation of the new job yesterday and resigned today, so all systems go!

    Pretty soon I'll no longer be selling those Beemers. All the corporate fun police will be behind me and their silly, restrictive rules, practices and I.T systems.

    I'll still be sorta in the bike job selling clothing and accessories, but in a much, much more relaxed environment.

    Spookily enough, I'll be working in the same building that I worked in when I started selling bikes just over 25 years ago. And be under the wing of the same chap as I was all that time ago, too. It's almost like coming home......

    Can't wait!

    Never knew Tony was a Bimmer salesman, would've asked for some sneaky parts for my aging one in storage (the Car not the Salesman), good luck with the new Job Tone.

    Yes Tone, congratulations. You've struck lucky (or they have); big corporations seem to lose sight that we appreciate personal service and support.


    On a slightly different note; Neil, I managed to make one functional one from the two Chinese S3 pistols you kindly gave me over the weekend. Now doing 1.25 ft/lbs and 3/4" groups at 9 ft (Man cave range c-to-c). Mind you, I've quite a long reach. The other is stripped to donor parts (just debating whether to spend money on parts to resurrect it)

    Excellent news mate, I remember you saying what arseholes they are, glad you managed to get away from them
    Far too many rifles to list now, all mainly British but the odd pesky foreigner has snuck in
