Still up for this at the moment however whether I'll hit anything is another matter. Seriously.

 

Went with Fat Jay at the weekend to Aylsham Shooting Club and managed - wait for it - 7. 7 out of 50. Not 10 - 50!! :look:

 

Excuses included -

Blistering cold

Flustered by the safety catch on Trap 1

New ground

Quartering birds which I've never shot before

Glare

New gun

New Coat

No gloves

Cold Feet

 

I'll think of some new ones before the 28th!

the problem I now have is -

I have better socks

I have gloves

The coat will be 2 weeks old by that point

It'll be the third time out with the gun

I've figured that the "S" means it's on safe!

The weather may be warmer.

 

Should be able to get at least 10 now then!

 

:lol:

This one seems to have gone a tad off thread.

 

The snow has gone in Essex and my pass is stamped. See you there for breakfast :good:

 

Allow good time to get to High Lodge as a lot of the last bit of the journey can be a bit slow. High Lodge is tucked away down a lane

so you need to look out for it :beer:

Have i missed anyone

 

Any room for a last minute LEFTY?

 

I've just checked with the Chief of the Domestic Staff and apparently, I haven't got anything better to do that day, so I'm allowed to play too.

 

Just to confirm: it's High Lodge for 10:00 on Mon 28th, right? - Anyone else travelling from Surrey and in need of a lift in the company bus?

Always room for more. And yes, you have the details right.

hi bigweed, we're going on the 28th, not boxing day. I think someone has already contacted high lodge for opening times, if not then we'll just have to find a field somewhere and let rip at some poorfolk :)

also, breakfast meet up was mentioned for 9am, start rounds at 10am.

BY THE WAY, thanks everyone for the offer of a loan gun for the day but it's sorted out, cheers!

see you all on monday.. :lol:

Yep, I'll be there for a bit of low fat brekkie with Philr as close to 9.00 as we can make it, looking forward to shooting 100 seriously hard birds :lol: , if time and daylight permits perhaps we can do a round on the Sportrap..?? :drinks:

 

Oh, nearly forgot, I'll be bringing presents for some of the Essex boys. B)

 

And before anybody else asks, yes, you can shoot fibre or plaswads there, maximum 28 gram, shot size 7 to 9, and if your Beretta choke has 4 notches on it, it's a Quarter choke. :drinks:

 

Roll on Monday...!!! :)

 

Cat.
