    I'm not stunned or speachless, over the last year I have lost so many friends and relations, all cancer, you wouldn't believe, 3 close members of my family in one month. Now 2 friends over the last 2 weeks both in their early sixties and non smokers. David

    Mad Marks memorial HFT comp last weekend.

    The Fort Air rifle club at Wrexham held a memorial/celerbration HFT comp with a Mark Brewster memorial shield for the winner, this is to be an annual event with 10 shields so it will last at least 10 years. About 45 HFTers attended the comp at the beautiful Fort club range situated on an ancient Celtic hill fort near Wrexham.

    I shot the course with Nige Williams (Gillieman) and his wife Claire it was my first HFT comp since Quarry in 2007. The weather was perfect starting with a clear frosty morning, but turning overcast later, the wind was light and the course excellent. I'm happy to say Nige won the shield with an excellent 59/60, I managed 51/60 and his wife Claire on her first ever HFT comp scored a cracking 49/60 with her beautiful limited edition Daystate Merlyn.

    The banter was excellent and I'm so pleased Nige won this comp, in fact I cannot thing of a better person to win it. I'm sure our much missed and good friend Mad Mark took a few minutes from making the Angels laugh to look down and smile. His wife Rachael presented Nige with the shield and his Squaddie son Danny also took part scoring 50/60.

    This was a cracking day and it was great to see AirgunBBS members taking the trouble to take part. My old mate Pad E made the long trip from Brum with his lovely daughter Sinead.

    Nige with his wife Claire. Nige was rightly very proud of his wifes performance and is framing her score card and a photo to commemorate the ocassion.

    For those BBS members who never knew Mark he was a very special person and much loved member of this forum, a very brave guy who always lived life to the full. Nige, myself and a number of other BBSers had the privelge to know this man personally and were able to call him friend. To say he will be missed is an understatement, but this shield is our simple way of remembering a GOOD AND DEAR FRIEND. I would like it to more a celerbration of a special guy and the mere thought of Mark still makes me smile. The last time I saw him he had his trousers round his knee and was exposing his bare behind to Clifftop and myself . A true character who will always be missed.

    Bit pissed off tbh; so many scumbags in the world and the big guy takes away one of the genuinely good ones?

    I rarely come to this forum these days so this post is a bit late. Mark was a real character and a pleasure to deal with - I had a fantastic Mk3 FTR and EB Sniper combo off him - its was immaculate and served me very well - only wish I kept it now.

    RIP Mark.

    I have just read this, I can't believe it, Mark was one of the true characters on this site. It will be a poorer place without him. God Bless you Mark.
