Diceman Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 Very laudable, I am always happy to see youngsters being encouraged into the sport. But why on earth call it a "Klay Day" ? Perhaps i am just particularly grumpy today..sorry...but what is wrong with treating them like adults and spelling it properly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaxiDriver Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 What does this cost Terry ? And what's covered/included ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aris Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 I believe it is £15 for 15 clays. My lad will be 9 in July, so I'll bring him along around then :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The use of the letter K brings it to people attention, as it has to yours. The children are treated like adults, and it starts with being able to handle and use a Shotgun safely and correctly . Look around at advertising and see how many words are spelt incorrectly/different to the norm, or in fact are even made up words, it is done to attract attention There is also a prize for spotting the spelling mistake, and the same prize if you don't.

bakerboy Posted February 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 Getting requests to run the event through the half term, plus already taking booking's for the 10th, so that "we do not miss out" parents have asked. So looking forward to a busy Sunday the 10th and maybe a few days in between. If any Pigeon Watch "Squabs" turn up they will get a few extra's.

I know, I see It all the time and it really pees me off because I think it is patronising when grown ups try to get down with the kids. I am a grumpy old pedant though, so take no notice of me. I still think it is totes amaze and well wikkid what you are doing though, hope the day goes well M8Y B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zapp Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 Depending on what we are doing I might bring mine to this as a birthday treat for the youngest (not the actual day, but close enough). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
