    I appear to have lost five hours, and a badger took a dump in my mouth.

    It’s perfect!
    Is it Sirah or just a local very rustic plouc production of the sort that have a dead rat in the vat ?

    Sounds fantastic, I've got an old Original Model 50 that could do with a bit of that .

    Just been blowing the dust off the rammers decoding what to bring. Ran em over the chrono expecting to have to pump a ram or two up but they were mostly all good. Only one down on power was typically the only one I haven’t got an adapter for at the moment 🤣 Sod’s Law.

    Thanks Pete, I will probs leave the scirocco classic at home this time and order a pre he adaptor. Thought I had one but when I went to use it turns out I have 2x he adaptors 🙈🤣🤣 scirocco classic is my only pre he rammer and I’ve never had to pump it up before. The only time I’ve ever tried topping one up mid bash it all went amazingly wrong, probs best done without an audience 🤣🤣🤣🤣

    Being a little closer than some of you, ( all of you actually) I can run home and swap out the guns I bring.
    I start with BSA Friday, other springer Saturday, HW 98 and prosport Sunday.
    I sneak my Pcps in on Thursday when no one is looking.
    Got to hit the bucket at least once!

    I could use some plastic sheet for guttering.
    3m x 250mm would do.

    I only have 2.5m and its a bit short.
    Those who have been before will know what I'm talking about.

    I'm bringing my pre he Sirroco quarterbore, not had it long, & not fiddled with it yet, dreading having to pump it up.



    On another note looks like the weather could be decent for the weekend, chucking it down now here.

    I saw the Countryfile forecast yesterday evening. Temps certainly on the up. Overall improvement on the weather. And they weren't quite sure as of yesterday evening how things might play out with a couple of fronts, but one of the scenarios was looking very promising. Let's hope that's what we get, proving Neil can really work the magic, even when it comes to ordering up good weather.
