Nope not blowing smoke up anyone's backside it just nice to part of a group of like minded people in this not so great times at the moment.
    Hi lite of Saturday was the RWS 75..A match rifle that handles like a sporting rifle. Then of course the venom 77 vantage..you don't need a lazaglide tuned one when the stage 1 tune shoots that well. Great to see at last NickG and some of his amazing tunes.
    Thanks again all. Mach 1.5
    And so nice to see you again, Paul. A very special, genuine bloke. Thank you for compliments re the Vantage and for my surprise presents. And for letting me have a go with those lovely fettled and custom HWs.

    Had a great run home, the traffic was all going the other way




    That Kenyan gin is still in the coffee & tea tent
    Lovely to see you again, Paul.

    Great to hear you had a good journey home; as I hope did everyone.

    Hope you get those "little tasks" sorted.

    Thanks for hosting us Neil, and for all the hard work you and your good wife put in to make these such great weekends. It was great to catch up with everyone, but for me the highlight was currry sauce with the fish and chips
    Lovely to see you again, JB. Your words of wisdom and the tales you share always go down well.

    A memorable bash, mainly due to the absence of 10% lager....
    Yes, you did appear much fresher and more "with it" this time around, Mark.

    As always, great to spend time with you again, sir. I enjoy our chats and many of our springer experiences seem to criss-cross. That V-Mach 77 was most lovely. And the HW80 Big-Bore Bruiser lovely and entertaining.....a "soft but not lazy" firing cycle belied the thump and those spinners were very animated after being assaulted with the .25s! That Wulf scope was also a revelation.....very clear optics and nice, usable, clear ret. Definitely on my wanted list.

    Thank you.

    Great to hear the seal is now being treated. I'm sure it'll be nice and usable once treated.

    I'm no knife expert but appreciate a little craftsmanship. Would love to have a look at some nice ones and Mike's leather handiwork.

    He still won't let me forget that he rang the zero target bell twice on the trot with Neil's Gamo, with open sights (he says he will put one on his Xmas list).

    Great weekend with a great bunch of people.

    May not make the next bash due to prior commitments, but we will be back in May.
    Marvellous to see you again, sir. And so nice to meet that little man of yours. He seemed very enthusiastic and happy all weekend. Excellent!
