If a man talks in the woods and nobody hears him, is he still wrong?

Dont forget........if you are looking for an odd/old/unusual mainspring.....I might have just the one...IF you want to "rumage"
Bring the old one to try & match it up though.
Directions please to plaster_tile@ntlworld.com has the format been decided yet??
Map/directions sent by e-mail as requested.
'Has the format been decided' ?
As this is the first one of these our club has held and the first of its kind in the north of England its mostly play it by ear on the day.
The doors will be open approx. 10am when the ranges (both rifle and pistol) will be opened for you to try any of the rifles available some of which will be marked For Sale (green tickets).
Any in the 3 rifle racks that the owners give permission for others to try will have white tickets attached with the owners names on them.
Those without any ticket are the rare or unused ones and can be inspected but please ask the owners before firing them.
Safety will be to the usual standards (rules displayed) i.e. no loaded guns off the firing points except in the chrono booth.
There will be a raffle with several good prizes donated by local trade and individuals. This will be drawn at approx. 3pm but any winners not present at that time will be notified.
Free tea and coffee plus snacks will be available for 10am. and the pot bellied stove on full song.
Any friendly competitions, rifle and pistol, can be arranged between those present on the day - the 'Duck-of-Doom' has duly been dusted off. The loosers to pay a forfeit to charity?
Space (and plasters ) will be provided for anyone willing to give any demos on gun repairs and for the Bring & Buy bits and pieces. Remember - strictly NO TRADE.
Closing time? Who knows/cares. (We have lights. )
All monies raised form the sale of raffle tickets, entry fees (£5), donations and the sale of NOCITYS stainless mounts screw kits will go towards Bolton Hospice in remembrance of James Gaskell and the clubs recent sad loss.
