Doncaster Airgun Range Meet Up; Sat 18 Jan 2025

[Hellequin]

Mrs is happy to bring me in the morning and then collect me from the Beefeater later, if someone doesn't mind giving me a lift from Brian's, please?

Won't be staying overnight as I'll be working on the Sunday, but good for meal and drinks on the Saturday evening.

Happy to taxi you from Brian's to Lakeside mate. I'm all booked in at the Prem Inn, so definitely going

[TonyL]

Lovely. Thank you, Paul.

The parts will arrive in the next few days. I'll get them fitted and calibrated. If we have the provisional dates for next year's Bash events, it will be able to cope with both. If we were not to have those dates once it's ready to be started, it'll just be a simple and quick operation to build the counter in for The Bash.

BOING!


P.S......Although this meet looks like it will be mainly supported by Boinger Bash attendees, it's open to anyone. And, like the Bash, all powerplants are welcome.....PCPs, CO2, pump-ups, gas rams......As long as you're safe and legal and adhere to the rules of the range, all is good and all are welcome at this friendly and inclusive meet.

[Craig-P]

Ah, that's my birthday...
I'll update as soon as I know if there's any other plans for me in the pipeline on that day.

[TonyL]

Mmmmmmm......that's a tough one, Craigy.....on the one hand you would get to spend your birthday amongst good friends in a lovely setting that you haven't visited before......but then, on the other, it all depends on what Sarah and the family had in mind.

Really hope it can work out for you......a day at the range, maybe, slightly early finish, then the evening and the Sunday with the family? Thinking of you.

Hi Tony,

As it stands I'm working nights on 17th and 18th Jan so won't be there.

If things change, as they sometimes do, I'll jump on this thread and attend.

[TonyL]

Hi Dan,

No worries. But if you need "back in", just shout up and I'll pop you back on the list.

[gtfreight]

Martin and Andy are checking if they're available for the 18th so I won't know until next Friday when we meet at the club again.
As there's a shopping outlet on the doorstep Lindsay's said she might come. She has zero interest in shooting but she does like to shop.

[TonyL]

No problem, Gary.

For shopping, there is a retail outlet and various eateries etc at Lakeside.

Also, closer to the range (approx 1.5-2 miles from the Lakeside), there is the Frenchgate Shopping Centre with lots and lots of shops. You also walk out of there straight into the very centre of Doncaster.

Lots of retail opportunities to keep a lady entertained!

[TonyL]

I wonder if the postie will land with the Sleepometer upgrade parts today?

A slightly early finish was my thinking too, mate. I'll get back to you soon.

I was considering putting my tent up alongside the lake.

Will you need a hand mate?

Of course.
