Tam Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 (edited) I am afraid that we can't commit attendance before cut off deadline - through no fault of our own my truck is in body shop pending repairs . Parts are on back order but looks like inner sill panel delivery date is end of month at earliest???. If we receive news before then all should be OK failing that a donation will be made :yes: but we will be disappointed missing the craic & bumper stickers edit to add - "& being a part of the winning side" :P Edited April 12, 2011 by Tam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't have to be a hot shot, you don't even have to be a regular clay shooter, a SGC and a shotgun + the willingness to enjoy yourself are the only pre-requisites. OK there will be some for a multitude of reasons who can't make it but don't let distance be an excuse. Hope you and Mrs Tam can make it, I enjoyed shooting with you both, even in the ******* rain , last year. Mr Potter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teal Posted April 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 I've just received this email from Hannah at Orchid about the day and fund raising so far! Dear Pigeon-Shooters I just wanted to pop you a message to say thank you very much for raising over £700 in donations to Orchid prior to the North/South Shoot and £550 in entry fees. As a small charity a total like this will really make a difference to the research we can fund and the men we can support. Orchid is the only UK registered charity to focus on all three male cancers; testicular, prostate and penile. Every hour in the UK a man is diagnosed with a male cancer. Every man is a son, brother, husband or friend and many loved ones are also affected by these terrible diseases. Through the support of groups such as yourself Orchid is able to fund pivotal research into the causes and treatments of such cancers. Orchid funds the largest penile and testicular tissue bank in the world and through this we have identified new ways of treating male cancers which are significantly more successful and less traumatic to men than previous treatments. After years of fundraising, Orchid has recently secured enough funding to employ our own 'Male Cancer Specialist Nurse'. This means that we can support even more men through a very difficult time in their lives. The money you have raised so far will allow our nurse to support ten men and their families affected by male cancer. Thank you once again for supporting Orchid and helping us fight male cancer. I hope you have a fantastic day and the sun is shining for you. If you do have any more questions about where your money will be going to please don’t hesitate to contact me at events@orchid-cancer.org.uk Best wishes Hannah Barwick-Walters We've done really well so far, if you can make it, then register now to attend the day, there's not much time left for signing up. It's £50 and £15 of that will go straight to Orchid (the rest is the cost of 100 clays at ST and a bacon roll). Or submit something for the raffle on the day, or if you don't have anything then why not drop a pounds onto the just giving page donate here . We smashed the £500 target and have revised it to £1000, and we've got £236 left to go to meet that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reddan Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 I call shotgun Check out the shotgun rules:- you may not call Shotgun until the automobile is within your sight. Seems like it is still up for grabs! What motor have you got Adi (hopefully it isn't a Micra or though that would be quite amusing to see/ world record?)
