Havent fired a shotgun in ages- Ok with pistols and SA80's though and my brother is a Sniper!  "its probably a virus, you'll be right as rain in a few days and if you're playing sport try to favour the other leg"

As the majority seem to be able to do the 5th October, I have changed the 3rd sign up list to that date....
If you are annoying me, just remember it takes 42 muscles for me to frown and only 4 to extend my middle finger, and I'm lazy so don't be offended.

I'll be with the clay ground guys on Sunday and will double check that everything is OK for the 5th October.
@ philhunt, I'm not sure on the cartridges they supply, but I know they are steel, I expect 28g number 7s but I'll check on Sunday and let you know.
All, if you want to bring your own cartridges, there's no problem and I believe the cost is £5 for 25 clays If you are annoying me, just remember it takes 42 muscles for me to frown and only 4 to extend my middle finger, and I'm lazy so don't be offended.

BTW, on top of the cost of clays and cartridges please don't forget there will need to be a donation to the site for setting this up. If you are annoying me, just remember it takes 42 muscles for me to frown and only 4 to extend my middle finger, and I'm lazy so don't be offended.

Thanks for the update Snowy - looking forward to the day - had a look on the net for the Winchester Trap 100 cartridges I used to use when I was a regular 'shooter' and found that they stopped making them about 10 years or so ago!
Will you collect our site donations on the day?

OK, have spoken to the chaps who look after the clay ground and they can do 5th October
Costs are £9 25 clays/25 cartridges, £18 for 50 etc etc.
I can supply 3 over/under shotguns and 1 side by side shot gun (for the traditionalist  ). All are 12 bores.
I can also supply the use of a 20 bore for weaklings/ladies/youngsters. 
If you can make it, please sign up. If you can't and are signed up, please remove you name. Also let me know if you are bringing extras. If you are annoying me, just remember it takes 42 muscles for me to frown and only 4 to extend my middle finger, and I'm lazy so don't be offended.
