    Great people to meet. Great staff working behind the bar. Great organisation of the fair. Great items to see and buy. Great bargains to be had. Great!

    Just arrived home safely, 320 mile round trip, some snow on the way back but well worth it for a pleasant day out, saw some nice stuff, sold some bits and pieces, won a prize in the raffle again, met a few friends, Johnbaz was conspicuous by his absence.
    Many thanks to the organisers for another successful show.

    Glad you like the Shrike, it was surplus to my requirements after being given an almost mint Airarms Mistral that I had a scope for already.

    Hi Mel

    I really missed going but the wife's father passed away a few weeks ago and her mum had a heart attack so we're trying to make sure her mum doesn't do too much in the hope of no repeat!!

    Hopefully i'll get to the next one!!

    Oh! John!

    It would have been right up your street. They were giving stuff away rather than get stuck in the snow on the way home.

    If only you'd been there

    Next time, eh?

    Another great dat at the Melbourne fair. nice to see the usual faces and some new ones as well. there seemed to be more through so hopefully they made money for a very good cause.

    Melbourne fayre

    Another great airgun fayre by the Melbourne members. Well done all. The usual nice classic springers for sale and very fair prices.
    Also some desirable precharged rifles including a 1 year old Air Arms HFT 500 that was for sale at £600 but sold for £500 with an additional benchrest stock. A bargain.
