For the only night in the year Members only - sorry.
All members are welcome to come along and have a say in the running of their club and take the p**s out of the club secretary. Nothing new there then.

Its like having a battle of wits with an unarmed man.
Not on the Agenda, but Im sure it will be mentioned on the night, the R.R. member (who shall remain anonymous as he's bigger than me - he's bigger than all the other R.R. members as well ) who built a bait torpedo for his other hobby of sea fishing.
A novel device which had an electric motor which, under remote control took its cargo of bait and line out to sea where it dropped its load and returned. This device was built over several months and at some expense and regular updates given to the club members especially NIKON (birthday boy Clive) who loved to hear of these optimistic aspirations.
Now, this device had its maiden voyage recently and its sea worthiness was tested and found to be more than acceptable as it was last seen heading towards Ireland, never to be seen again. The designer had also omitted to attach any form of contact details for any finders.
This is an example of the 'building clay' I have to work with!

NOT one of your best.
Christine was the one who was looking for the Mil Dots that fell out of a scope onto the indoor range floor.
The club 'Gladys' struggled for 10 minutes the other week just putting his coat on.
Dave Bramhall ran over his HW80 outfit on the outdoor range. (It didn't even knock the zero off )
Steve sat on a wasp on the outdoor range and also rolled off the indoor range roof.
I recently had to stop another member (Harry) from putting powdered bleach into his brew when he mistook it for sugar.
There was a member who brewed up TWICE with Lemonade by mistake.
The new member who turned right, not left, on leaving the car park and got his car damaged and stuck down a public foot path and had to be pulled out by a tractor. He did the exact same thing on his next visit.
I JEST NOT !
Now do you see what I mean about 'building clay'. The joys of being a club secretary.
What really amazes me though is that they tell ME!
