The 'tactical situation' conversations, one of them was where is the best place to be while in a shootout by a parked car

Yep that whet Cheryl called one of them

behind the bonnet so the engine is in the way, and if you stand by the wheel then your feet-(lower legs if kneeling) will have some cover as well,
anywhere else and the bullet would go straight through.

its important to know these things where i live

Hi all,

I have just had a very successful, and very pleasant video call with Jan & Jim McArthur, so we should be able to get them involved on the day

Jim was able to show off some of his 'proper' hardware

Cheers, Mark

Excellent news

Good to know that Jim & Jan will be there with us again.

Went over to the Greyhound this evening. Met up with Dave the owner, had a good chat & finalising all details for the shoot.

We have been given the permission to use all the plinking range, which is real good of him. Dave has also said that we are welcome to use there HFT/FT course also

For people that are camping over on the Friday, could you let me know a estimated time that you will be arriving. So I can let Dave know please.

Regards
Paddy.

Yes: and it scared Flora away. "Come and say hello to the American maniac, dear: look at the pretty revolver he's pointing at the screen..."

Morning Paddy,

I hope to be arriving sometime around 5pm as I want to try to get the tent pitched before dark which is at 17:52 on Friday. *Hopes there will be some already there as pitching the tent is a two person operation*

Can I ask what loo facilities there are for the campers?

Getting excited

Clare

I am also hoping to arrive in time to pitch before it gets dark, so put me down for 4 - 5pm.

Clare, as i understand it, there are no campsite loos

There are loos in the pub for daytime use and Jim (Target Bunny) has a key to the canal-side loos, which are closer to the camping area. I am bringing a basic chemical loo that you are welcome to use if you need to

(I am soooooo generous

).

I'll help with your tent if you help with mine

. I can pitch mine single handed but it is easier with two. If it is really cold, like last night, -2 here in Hampshire

, there will be floor space enough for you to share our heater

Cheers, Mark

Jim

Ha ha ha

, it was really great seeing you both face to face, you are the first UBC members that I have 'met'.

To be fair to Flora, she had just come in from work and had changed straight into her nightwear - for my eyes only

Cheers, Mark

Mark,

I too could probably pitch it single-handed, it is not difficult just awkward, but like yours is easier with two people. I'll be delighted to help you with your tent.

Yes you are generous

I think I'll be okay in my tent as I like to camp in comfort - my bedding consists of 5cm thick self inflating mat, 2 fleece blankets, a sleeping bag, an army sleeping bag inside the other one, pillow and duvet. The inner sleeping bag has arms and a hood and zip around the knees so if I get caught short during the night I don't even have to get out of it, I just unzip the knees

But that said if your tent is warmer I may well take you up on the offer of floor space

Thanks you

Clare

Will there be air there for my rifle if I bring it?

I'm getting the feeling that there will be no shortage of 'hot air'

- not sure about high pressure air though

I do not do PCP...

.(yet

).

Cheers, Mark

I will be on site Saturday, with my 12ltr 300 bar tank in the van.
