RE: Barnsley - Sunday 25/09/05

Nice shoot at Barnsley -- a bit windy down by the targets, but very sunny. Some confusion because one of my target mates, Gayle Cogan of Spen Victoria, had the same blue-and-white fletching scheme as me, as did a guy from Wakefield on the target next door. And I thought mine was so distinctive...

Unfortunately, I was walloped in the raffle by Little Miss Purple -- she won a bottle of purple-tinged bubble bath and I won nowt. I know why, of course -- the raffle was held indoors, and I only practiced for outdoors. Next time...

I did, however, win my first shooting-related prize in a long time:

This was for "best white". I got it on my first end at 50 yards, scoring 9-5-1-1-1-miss! One of the 1s was closer to the black than anyone else's so this magnificent prize was bestowed upon me. For overseas readers, Tesco Value is the UK's premier brand of luxury goods.
