    Over the past few weeks Tony, a problem with at least one of the rifles has become a frequent occurrence. But happily none lost their zero, loosened a screw or broke a spring. A very enjoyable morning plinking

    That's true but think of it as in just over 25 weeks the days will be getting longer again.

    Oh yes, it did, indeed, go down, Pauly.



    Before we got there!



    We'd decided to go on the A57 towards the Snake Pass and across at the Ladybower Reservoir. A lovely, scenic drive. But about a mile before the Ladybower there had been an accident. Road closed and expected to remain closed for about three hours. We turned back towards Sheffield and, well, every cloud has a silver lining, drove along this steep, up and downy, tight and nadgery little road towards a place called Ringinglow. Lovely, very scenic, very rugged in places, sheep wandering all over the road. Will have to have a ride up there sometime.

    We got to the car park at our destination after the sun had gone down. But still had a walk up in the twilight and still enjoyable, matey.

    Took the new to me fenman out yesterday for a couple of hours, first time I've had it out in the field. It did rather a good job the local bunnies took a pasting been tinkering about blueing a couple more bits and bobs today too, as well as removing the fenman stock and rubbing it down with wire wool and giving it a nice coat of linseed oil before refitting it and rezeroing the rifle. All in all a very satisfactory weekend. How did the Chinese oddballs go? Any boingerers attended?

    Sounds like a most excellent, varied and rewarding weekend, Chris.

    And never shot the B2 either.
    Perhaps I should go sit on the naughty step.
