    7 yards or not 7 yards, that is the question

    No more; and by aligning to say we end
    The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
    That Beardy is prone to, 'tis a consummation
    Devoutly to be wish'd. To park, to rangefind;
    To score a 2, perchance to dream—ay, there's the rub:

    Ahh, Mr Chase,

    Would you like all Fordies to park in the VIP area as we did the last time we hosted the SIHFT?

    After all, membership does have its privileges
    Save time, see it my way

    Indeedy, can Fordies, and any other early birds for that matter, park up past the lorry compound on the concrete - ie drive through the range and out the gate towards where we shoot the SiHFT then park on the concrete making sure there is access to the compound should any lorries come in(I'll check to see if this is likely)

    This is because the shotgunners will also be there so the car park will be pretty full.

    I'll copy and paste this into the first post
