Same for me GA, get well soon

This covid is making these bloody Latte sippers a bit thin on the ground. Dont really want to change any dates as Woody has done a lot of had work. So we are still 2 weeks out a lot can happen

The date 25th was selected based on weather forecast for a fine warm day and also to avoid conflict with numbers of range users during weekends, also to give adequate advance notice

@mucko I would like to take you up on the ride offer.

Friends and forum members are welcome to attend and have a happy yarn with GA and other members for the afternoon.
The venue will be the NZDA range off Tarawera road (Rotorua).
We will have access to the range clubhouse and bbq and the range itself so eating, shooting and story-telling are all on the menu for the afternoon.
It is intended that the Meet and Greet will commence 1pm and finish by 5pm.
We feel it appropriate that attendees each bring the normal $10 range fee as contribution to Rotorua NZDA for the kind use of their Malcolm Perry range facilities.
Please bring your own rations of snarlers, steaks, bread etc for the cookup and somrthing to drink. (But no booze to be associated with shooting.)
GA has made a special request for Macca49 to bring his big banger
Should br a fun afternoon for GA and all who participate and a great opportunity for forum members in the region to meet each other.
We want to make this a happy day for GA in particular.
It will be helpful if partcipants can confirm here.
N.B. The Malcolm Perry NZDA range gate is krpt locked at all times so timely arrival is important so we dont have to walk back and forth unlocking and relocking the gate all afternoon.
Thanks for reading this. Please RSVP if you can attend. Cheers, Woody and Co'

My “big banger” is for special occasion, so I’ll find it and give it a good polish!!
