Spring Bash 4th and 5th May 2024

[TonyL]

I've just called in and the basherati are in fine spirits. The weather was dry but the clouds looked ominous.
The ground is soaked.

Thank you for checking in on the children and for the update.

[TonyL]

I'll be setting off in half an hour or so, the rain is setting in here. Cars rammed with rifles & beer. Got wellies too.





By the look of the weather it may be better to hide out in the pub most of the evening & night



.

I hope all went well and that you're loving your maiden visit.

[TonyL]

A little shower has just passed through.

Think it should be dry for today.

[TonyL]

I want to go and ask if they have heard the phrase “Wetter than an otter’s pocket.”?

I’m not sure who it is, and I don’t care quite enough to go and find out………

Bugger. Lovin' it though, Nick?

[TonyL]

Cheers man, I need to eventually get to your Slingshot rifle too,.

Slingshot rifle? Ooo-er, excellent. Never seen one in the flesh. They look great fun.

[TonyL]

NO MORE SLEEPS TO GO!

BOING!

Here we is, peeps......The big main day of The Bash is here! No more sleeps. Nada. Zip. Naff all. No more agonising waiting. No more days at work to endure......Just a couple more hours or so and I can be at our beloved Quigley Bottom with all you lovely peeps.

BOING!

Yesterday may have been wet at times. But the forecast for today has looked promising for the last few days. And I've just seen the forecast on the Beeb and the forecast for tomorrow is also looking much better than it did a few short days ago.

Neil, I don't know what you do or how you do it but, once again, it looks like you've fixed it for the weekend.

You are a legend.

Have a GREAT time all. Mach 1.5

Yes, I'm still thinking how to make it work with tooling I've got and to the specs I want which is more powerful than draw I can manage by hand but easy to recock by a disabled person (so fowler design is ruled out) and possibly reload the pouch as it's cocked.
I'm still going with a the premade wood stock blank idea as it takes some work out of it and then working from there to to add the rest.

[Segata]

Still in my Pit sadly, I can't set up any range stuff yet so may do a bit of paint on the Beretta shortly so I can get closer to having the indoor one back.

[Chippendale]

Whats the field like for motors getting off, is it solid enough?

It's a bit slippy Melv. I was spinning a worrying amount when I left earlier but made it.
