    I wish I could change shifts on 2nd August, but I cant, as I might have been tempted to have my very first table ever

    Anyone that has not been before, I would recommend making the effort, great bunch of like minded sados and very friendly. All except the one that looks like an overweight 70's porn star, name slips my mind at the moment

    My previous efforts to promote a similar event last year were completely ignored by the mags.

    I handed their reps at the shooting show in 2013 hard copies of a flyer for our event (last year) and was asked to also send them an electronic copy which I did. So they knew of the event.

    I also e-mailed TD and then later his assistant a write up on the event but got no response from either gentlemen, not even a no-thanks John

    The event raised £700 for charity and was well worth the effort.

    The write up eventually went into print in Danny's splendid electronic magazine, so it reached those who were interested in collecting and older types of airgun. Thanks again Danny.

    The event is again being run to raise funds for the RBL Poppy Appeal and that is my priority, to raise funds for a good cause.
    The magazines no longer interest me.

    Hi John it's a shame that they can't promote this event as it is for a realy good cause the RBL, lets hope we can make more money than last year as that is the main objective at the end of the day.and many thanks for all your effort in doing this.

    Anything from early rifles & pistols to moden ones plus pellets bits and bobs ect, you will see more airguns for sale there than any other event, and at very fair prices as well,
