A big thanks to To Neil and Tina for all the effort put into making another superb weekend. We thoroughly enjoyed it (except for Emma's puncture on Friday the 13th). George has really caught the sun on his face but he says it's not sore.
Once again, great company and some fantastic guns, I especially liked Les's Longbow, I've never shot one before and I think his has been kissed by Venom and it was absolutely sublime.
That bucket gets more challenging every time for me but Gav was the first to master it with his .22 95 if I'm not mistaken, Pete and Emma (using her HW30) were also managing very well with the task.
I also must thank Mike for his help over the weekend, you're a gent.
I hope you all enjoy your curry tonight. Hopefully see you all again soon.

Kind regards and happy shooting,
Gary.

I can only echo what Gary as said,A big thank you to Neil and Tina for another fantastic Boinger Bash :cool.
Everyone was great company (sorry if I waffled on to much) and I got the opportunity to try some stunning guns on the range.
Thank you Chris(Baldinio) for bringing your Kral Np02 for me to have a shoot with,I was most impressed with it.
Thanks to Gary -Dave and Neil for for some great deals and Vale boy for the stout and pellets .
It was great meeting up with the regulars and new attendees .And can’t wait until the next one.

Another huge thank you Neil for giving us all a day which just couldn't be more perfect. The site, the weather, the guns and above all the people made for the sort of day that makes memories that will last forever. As always after a bash I come away inspired by the knowledge and ideas that fellow "bashers" share. It is a privilege to be amongst you, and it couldn't happen without the quiet graft of our organiser. Just so grateful.

Just to reiterate what’s been said, a brilliant days outing, shooting and catching up with old and new attendees.
Neil and Tina are stars.
Thank you for your efforts you have made many people very happy and contented.

Big thanks to Neil and Tina for a fantastic weekend.
Great to see all the old faces and meet some new folks.
Bucket was very challenging I only managed a few hits.
Craig didn't put on his usual masterful display but he did seem slightly distracted by something.
Can't wait for the next event

And thank you once again for gracing us with your presence, Michael. It's always lovely to see you and your finely honed toys. Your LGV continues to epitomise springer well-being and politeness. An absolute Jewel, of which you must be so proud.

And, and not wanting to sound like a stuck record.......I appreciate you're not a 10m match shooter, but please don't let that lovely 300S go. They just don't engineer and make them like that anymore. An object of engineering art, precision and beauty. Just be happy you can enjoy at home and rejoice in its finery. At that (too low) asking price I'm amazed it wasn't snapped up, but that may be a blessing in disguise and a strong hint to keep it.

You are not helping me Tony, here I am trying to declutter my life a bit (is it a hanging offence to call a 300S clutter?) and the last thing I need is to be reminded is how beautifully made and sweet shooting the FWB is. Perhaps I might have to keep it just a bit longer and choose another area to start thinning out . But as you said, it won't be quite so hard to part with it if I know it is going to someone nice who will use and appreciate it, so perhaps at the next Bash.
