    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!

    Great afternoon and evening with good companions. Plenty of kai and lots of interesting yarns.

    Thanks Simon for organising another great night, I thought the quality of attendees was a little higher than last really enjoyed. Smelt like a smoked trout when I got home.
    Sorry about the rabbit in the driveway

    @7mmwsm I am so sorry Jeff he must mean you couldn't possibly be me or any others from last time.

    A bit late (blame roar trips), but would like to say a massive thanks to XR for putting this on!
    Brilliant chap, can't speak highly enough of him. Wonderful hospitality and great setup (warm and try in the conditions), a lot of effort put in.
    Was great to meet more members and have some solid yarns

    Till next time!!

    It was a great affair. Dolly the sheep was very generous. I’ll certainly be in for another go. Ha ha ha
