Sussex Countryman Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 Hello everyone Harrys the name from West Sussex, way down south. Looks like a nice friendly forum, anyone else from Sussex/Kent/Surrey out there? I shoot Pigeon (obviously!), beat and part time gamekeep for a local shoot and enjoy the beaters day at driven Pheasant tremendously. Also been a ferreter and long netter in the past & would like to get back into these. Looking for a cheap (£100-£200) 20 bore o/u to start my daughter shooting. Something like a Baikal or Yeoman or similar, anyone got anything hiding in the cabinet, gathering dust? Look forward to talking to/meeting some of you in the future.

lankylurcher Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 Axe Yes I will. As I work for the CLA, will be taking some leaflets for the Kent Game Fair (KGF) into Andersons and E G Guns and all other gun/fishing shops in W Sx & Surrey for them to distribute. Don't know if you've been to the KGF, but its been a really good show the last two years and most of it's under cover. Its held at the Kent showground, Detling in Kent, on Sat 31 March & Sun 1 April. If you go, come and say hello to me on the CLA stand. Cheers Harry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sussex Countryman Posted February 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 Hiya Jas & Sussex Lad Thanks for the welcome. Hope to meet you sometime. Are either of you going to the Kent Game Fair at the end of March? If you do I'll be on the CLA stand (I work for them), do drop by and say hello.

Sussexboy Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 As someone has said before, I'm from Sussex too, the clue is in the name. Mind you, for some of us East Grinstead is oop north, not way down south!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkield Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 Are Sussexcountryman and Lankylurcher one and the same person? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sussex Countryman Posted February 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 Hi stuartp & Sussexboy Thanks for your posts. Sussex Countryman is me, Harry, & LankyLurcher is my daughter Emily, who's about to learn shotgun and has just started .22 rimfire target shooting. Cheers Harry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sussexboy Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 My daughter is an Emily as well. She currently shoots .22 rimfire, has had a couple of trips to the ranges to shoot .308 with me and is 14 today. I have taken her clay shooting once, last year. The safest place to be was sitting on the clay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
