Jake,

That's awfully bad news.

I'm sorry you can't come. Won't be the same withut you. Still, we will hope for next year!
Look forward to seeing you.

Richard.

Well Fellows,
It's only about two months to this year's shoot.
I cut the grass early while frost still in ground!
If it's wet again this year, we'll have to move to another spot. (Don't forget wellies!)

I know we are going to be down a few on last year, but is it too soon for a rough head-count, to see who's going to make it?

This year's theme will be;
The North -West Rebellion.

Date,
20th &21st June.

If you turn up sooner, that's great!, but you may get press-ganged into helping with last minute stuff.
Also, no rush to leave afterwards, as long as you can amuse yourselves if farm stuff calls.
Bring your own refreshments to keep you going for the day.

Volley fire!......................(5 rounds)

Dinner, 6-ish, or when we get sick of shooting!....(Buffalo roast and fixings)

Visit 'till we all fall asleep.

Sunday;

Lunch pot luck & eating what we couldn't eat yesterday.
