    Hope the first night was an enjoyable one, lads.
    I wasn't going to bring these as I really don't want to load them all in the car and then bring them all back again - but I've just filled the car up with a collection of cheap / cosmetically challenged springer projects ( all running and all sub £50 ) and a few optics. They all need to go and are perfect for anyone wanting to tinker or gift to youngsters etc.
    I'll be there Saturday morning, so don't spend all your dough on beer and chips this evening...

    See you tomorrow, Craig
    Put on heading 270, assume attack formation

    Sounds interesting.
    Far too many rifles to list now, all mainly British but the odd pesky foreigner has snuck in

    Bloody good job I can't make it then Craig.

    I don't think Shirl believes me anymore when I tell her "I fed it a pellet and it followed me home".

    The best one was when I took 3 guns to the bash and managed to sneak back in home with 10.


    Have a good weekend folks.



    All the best Mick

    Have a wonderful weekend you lucky attendees, I shall be sitting fretting not far away as we didn't make it to Devon after all. Unfortunately my wife caught the horrid covid, ( don't know why I didn't but heigh ho) which meant meant we couldn't go. Fortunately she wasn't too bad, and we are now just waiting for a negative test before we can go out and join the world again.

    Mick, that is a talent indeed.
    I managed to convince my Mrs (at the time) that my .22 HW95 had gone to ISP and they’d converted it into a .223 Sako - but turning 3 guns into 10 is absolute alchemy!
    If there’s anything left tomorrow I’ll drop it over to you.
    Best, Craig

    So, so sorry to hear this, Pete. Of all the times.. Best wishes for a swift and full easing of symptoms. See you in a couple of months.

    Sorry to hear this, Michael. To have your plans scuppered due to clashing with a family trip / holiday is one thing. But then having that scuppered further due to this horrible virus (oooooh, let's just try and ignore it and let it run amok!) and missing out despite your close proximity is a double slap.

    I hope your good lady is feeling well and that you are both able to join us out here again.

    Stay safe and cool and we look forward to seeing you again soon.
