Lord Geordie Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 Hi Guys! A few year ago the members from the North would get together every now and then for a clay shoot. I was wondering if anyone was interested in trying this again? We did a few different grounds like Thimbleby and Stead hall for a day out. There is no huge rush, but it would be good to have something to look forward to later in the year if we can arrange it Just floating a suggestion!

Lord Geordie Posted April 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 Thats a good start. Not even 24 hours and 7 interested parties. Lets keep this going and see who else shows interest and then start looking for a date. ATVB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Geordie Posted April 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Well so far we have the following showing interest! Myself Rabbiter Mad1 Shaun4860 Ben0850 Jgguinness 100milesaway Stu21 Wriggler Joe1978 Besty57 Alendil How does Thimbleby sound to you chaps? If we can agree on a Venue, then it may encourage more Members to join in. Lets see if we can get a few more on the list, and then talk about a date. Also I am aware, SOME Members do not have transport! We could offer a lift perhaps to those Members, and try to boost the numbers? Just a few thoughts! So to recap. How do you feel about Thimbleby? Or is there another Venue you would like to add and we could vote for a ground! Just to let you chaps know I chose Thimbleby as I have been before and it was a friendly place and well laid out. It's not on my doorstep either Discuss!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mad1 Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 (edited) I have never been to that one but I can miss clays anywhere Would this be a weekend or a midweek shoot as I know sedgefield had a floodlit one which is good Also I could pick some up on way there if it helps anyone Edit : my son wants to come along to have a go if that's ok with the others Edited April 21, 2012 by mad1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
