Not that I'm overly competitive...
(note the cups and shields!)
...but if we intend to win, we should have a practice session before the competition!
There are 10 or 11 of us so we should split into 2 practice sessions. I will suggest that the explorers arrange with me directly and that scouts try to come along at:
4:30-6:00pm on Saturday 11 February
Meet at my house (Leaton Hall Farm, near Bomere Heath - its the farmhouse on the T-junction where the road past Leaton Industrial Estate, with the railway level crossing, meets the Berwick Road (Baschurch to Shrewsbury Road).
If there is any problem about times or places, give me a call on 01939 291352 or 07895 140034 and we will sort it out :)
We shoot in my barn and it is likely to be cold so wrap up warm! (Think Gokyo Ri! - the explorers summer camp this year!)
You will need to have avoided fizzy drinks, have eaten at lunchtime and bring some water to drink.
You also need to give legal consent (not just scouty forms - it is a legal requirement under the firearms act...
