    Is there a cooler there?
    Again dependant on way to get there but I've got a 12v Mini Fridge I could bring, just one of those Koolatron Coca Cola ones though so will hold about 6 330s or 4 larger cans.

    To be fair, I can understand why she doesn't fancy visiting England. The bit about air rifle obsessives is harsh, though

    Get the pressure put on pal. Failing that, bribe her with summat nice

    Do I need to bring my own 12 litre bottle or is there a compressor on site?

    There is a cooler for milk in the hospitality tent ( bigging up the tea tent here), it's ice powered not electric.
    There is no compressor on site.

    I suppose a 12L bottle would be OK for Friday night but what about Saturday?

    Depends how good a shot you are, mind you some days I'd swap my shoulder for a PCP as a break barrel can't be doing it any favours.

    Well if extra cooling is needed/wanted just shout, in my pack will be my Yugolsavian mess kit that holds about 750ml to 1l and the shotgun flask that I'll do either Cappucino or tea in to drink either there or on the road and probably a 2l of Fizz as booze and meds aren't too friendly.
    Can bung basic tools in there too if theres a need for emergancy repairs but can't go too mad as won't be able carry it.
