Exclamation Hello

Hello Everybody

I have been introduced to this site by a friend (Thanks Paul) as a result of a recent car theft last week where myself and 3 collegues were targeted and our equipment stolen.
Two prized bespoke longbows together with 4 leather quivers and upwards of 6 dozen arrows together with other equipment have been taken.

Fortunatly, everything is insured but the time to make and replace these items is a bind especially the highly decorated quivers. I would ask that if anyone hears of bespoke equipment being sold that you let me know. it just could be..........?

Other than that, I am glad to have found this site as I have been involved in Archery for a number of years and shoot and have shot with several clubs in and around Middlesex and Buckinghamshire. As indicated above my primary interest is in the longbow and I particularly like to Rove.

I will look forward to participating in the forums on a regular basis.

Best regards

AlanDC

Welcome Alan!

Sorry to hear about the theft. I've copied an edited version of this post into the Lost, Found and Theft Forum, as well, so it gets more views (so post remarks about the theft there, please).

I hope the equipment gets recovered. Let us know. Meanwhile, enjoy AIUK and let us know if we can do anything to help!
