    Was it using the Gazebos as lances astride push bikes or was it a bat style free for all?

    I think Spring will spring into life properly soon, though.

    Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.

    We fought the forces of nature (the wind and rain).
    The more I think I know, the more I realise the less I know.

    Some of the test bits are a bit of a pig to paint but I should have something to show by the weekend to see if it helps vision wise for Tony and I'm Scots blood, I was born in the wind and rain, my only issue is I sink in the mud, I'll still bring my Army Parka though just in case to minimise soggyness on seats should the weather turn.
    Home wise I just trimmed down some bolts to fit hinges on some stand ups Im making into resetters, supposedly marketed towards airsoft but they feel a bit too thick and heavy for the Pistols so likely they'll be going outside and mounted to a framework eventually.

    I have a new fire thing that will be burning outside my tent/tarp/trailer/caravan/doss bag. Feel free to join me and enjoy some welcoming Northern hospitality.

    I couldn’t make that one Pete. Must’ve been the only one with rough weather.
    Hows the knee now ? All back to ‘normal’ ?

    Yep. The only time the weather didn't play nicely. Normal service will be resumed for this Boingering season.

    Great news re the knee, Pete.

    All hunky dory and settled with the hip now, Pauly?

    Good luck with all the on-going projects. Don't worry about me vision-wise (but thank you anyway). I looked through a scoped rifle the other week and that's fine. And I can focus on open sights okay (just not smaller targets at longer ranges). Should have new glasses in time for The Bash so vision should be fine. Main issue has been the non-driving. If I drive there I'll be totally okay.

    We did indeed. It got progressively tougher on the Sunday. But a good time was still had by all.
