Teal Posted February 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 All details of the day and current entrants will in due course be updated and added to the Official NvS Charity Shoot website (many thanks to Petethegeek and Beardo for stepping up for the 6th year in a row to create a super website for the Charity Shoot). For the petrol heads - definitely have a look on the Charity Shoot website into the optional off-roading course after the Charity Shoot. We are expecting it to be popular.

shaun4860 Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 She not interested in any forum, if its the law then I will pass. There are people who have joined the forum and take no part on it whatsoever just so they can come to the shoot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tam Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 Only if she wants to shoot, more than welcome to accompany you - I don't make the rules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul223 Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 She not interested in any forum, if its the law then I will pass.My missus ain't to interested in posting either, however she is a member and, if I can convince her, will be coming to the charity shoot. So just get the wife signed up and your sorted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rupert Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 (edited) Thanks for the replies,She wont sign up to the forum to satisfy the condition and I don't see why she should, I am a regular contributor and have been for a number of years, as my regular shooting partner the additional entry money in my opinion should be sufficient. I can however on balance see that her presence would possibly deny another member the opportunity to participate. Which is fair enough.And signing up solely to shoot this event would also be unfair on a regular member.

You seem to be missing the point, it's a Charity Event, and the more people that turn up on the day, the better it is for all... Hope to see you both there. Cat.
