I'm attending an in-law relative wedding today. The wife is making me go. 
However, tomorrow there's a gun show that I'll attend.

Great day at the Midland Game Fair. Good numbers even though the weather was damp and misty. Tomorrow is going to be sunny and dry and we'll have another full day at the Fair. From what I've seen today there are bargains to be had.

Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs even though checkered by failure, than to rank with those timid spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat !

I had my first Historic Iron Sight competition at Millpool on Bodmin.
Surprisingly good weather and a good day in all.
My score wasn't great but it was my first attempt beyond 100m with my K31 and i dont really use iron sights much.
Still i was pleased with my shooting overall, plenty of hits on the target, just not in the bull very often.
Looking forward to next year though.

Good day out, wasn't it, John.
Shame about the idiot joggers who decided to run across the safety zone and cut short the last stage!!

Southport Airshow -what a day!
Took all the back roads and farm tracks to miss the traffic! Saw loads of planes I've not seen flying before but the stars of the show were the two Lancasters and then the Vulcan.
I've been home two hours and still smiling!!!!
