    Sorry, we didn't get to say goodbye this morning, you both obviously needed a lay in. Nudge, nudge, wink, wink.

    Lovely to see you all again, Dave.

    It was great catching up with everyone and seeing new toys and old favourites.
    Fantastic to have had the pleasure once again, Gav. It's always a lovely thing to be able to spend some quality time with you.

    Really looking forward to September already.
    And so wonderful to see you again, Pauly.

    Well done on the pellet count. I was most impressed with your early start on the targets on Saturday. So looking forward to Septmber already. I think the Sleepometer will start at a lower value than your magic number again, so close we'll be to our next meet, but I'll see if there's any scope for any tweakerage.

    All the tentage is down and rubbish moved to the bonfire.

    Thank you to all who came and made the weekend special.
    And big thanks to you and Tina for serving up yet another exemplary and special meet. The venue really is something so extra-special and picturesque. As Paddy was saying, campers / glampers would be happy to pay a small fortune to be able to stay in such beautiful and relaxing surroundings.

    Brilliant organisation made it all run like clockwork. And your natural enthusiasm shines through everything you do - the extra water runs, allowing / creating extra targets for zeroing purposes etc. And even down to your excellent trimming skills on the drinks can to make up a shim for Adam's rear mount. Worked a treat and made him a happy bunny; thank you.

    The only slight disappointment was the lower than usual attendance. I know much couldn't be helped and I feel for those who wanted to be with us but couldn't on this occasion. It did make for a "cosier" feel, though, and more space on the bench and more time to spend with others individually. But hoping for, and fully expecting, a larger turn out next time.


    THANK YOU!

    It must have been shortly after Gav's shower time when I arrived yesterday and I saw Gav from a distance, in a clean white gown, looking for all the world like some sort of preacher man talking to Trumpy Dave who was sat near the pond.

    How's your back, Pete? Fingers crossed a little easing of the pain now?

    You can probably get therapy for it Paul

    Likewise Tone and the chance to play with some lovely and unique toys you own, oh and to sing the praises of the 35

    Hi Tony. I am glad everyone had a good time
    Typically enough things are easing a little after a weekend spent mostly on my back.
    Just in time to go back to work tomorrow

    A very big thanks to Neil and Tina for all the hard work they have put in with organising the bash. I'm sure everyone that attended really appreciate all the hard work and commitment to running it.
    It was great to catch up with all the bash regulars, and the weather was perfect too. Shot some amazing guns that various people brought along. Bought some rifles that I had no plan on purchasing. Happy Days!
    Lets put the word out there everyone about this event and get the attendance numbers up!
