DOH ! A month too late Does it cost less if you supply your own gun and cartridges ? Probably still not worth the cost of the round trip though.

A month too late?

If the shoot had taken place in the last couple of weeks Bob and I would have both been able to attend but we are now back in Oz.

Hope you all have a good night.

Sorry folks - will have to pass on this Need to watch the pennies at the moment and we've already committed to going to BTaP this year and the tickets go on sale next week. If our situation changes we'll let you know.

[StuStu]

From the interest shown it will not be viable for us to have this as an "exclusive" event, so we have merged it with another group Nigel has interested, this should also keep the costs down.

As the numbers are small and I know you all, we'll collect the money on the day

Keir .. if you PM me a contact number I'll keep you updated

cheers
