    SSP And Spring Done

    Hi Guy's & Gal's

    Got my SSP & Spring entry for Decembers comp shot today

    Despite the ruddy temp being BELOW FREEZING round these parts

    My hands were all over the place and I was shivering. It seemed to take forever as I had to aim and wait for my hands to stop shaking long enough to get a shot off

    I just hope it warms up enough to get the Co2 done tomorrow

    Plannig on doing mine tomorrow. As today I was under strict orders from the big boss(Mrs) & little boss(5yr daughter) to get the Xmas lights up on the outside. Now all done I can relax.

    Tis rather chilly what else should we expect
    BE-HAPPY-OK

    Stoked my stove up this evening so it's roaring like good 'un,
    got all the lamps set up and the ironing board out with the back stop on,
    only to find I had no 6 yard targets left! So I had a practice on the full size 10 metre ones. I managed a 41 two handed and a 38 single handed.
    I'll print some more 6 yarders out at work during the week.
    In the meantime, although its sub zero outside its like a chuffing ships engine room in my kitchen, even the cats have gone out to cool off!
    I can feel a chilled guiness coming on!

    Will get my cards shot tomorow Paddy, with all this cold weather i don't think there are going to be to many good scores, apart from Mike's in his converted Gym at work. No I'm not jealous.
    Fancy shooting your air pistols & rifles a bit more, then guy's & gal's come visit us at the
    UBC for loads of fun competitions for all types of air pistols and rifles.

    You went all the way to Bristol to use my mothers shed
    I'd have found a barn somewhere closer myself (just so I didnt have to look at her)

    hope she isn't cooking your Christmas dinner? And if she is you better make sure she's not reading this - or the white stuff on top of christmas pud might not be icing sugar!!
