Not sure which is a more unnatural colour, my flights or my hair... maybe I should start a poll..

I must say you bare an uncanny resemblance to my partner, so much so that our youngest daughter (of 4 years) now believes her mother shoots! All are in agreement that you are the splitting image, at least in that photo right down to dress sense, hair style and colour.

Very nice bow by the way, wouldn't mind one myself.

Wahoo! Pretty damn cute.

Bow's not bad either. Do I see a new article in the Wail on Sunday supplement coming? [1]

Have fun with the new toy Rachel. I concur with Ratty - get yourself some woodies and have a blast in the forests

[1] DISCLAIMER - this comment is a bit of friendly banter, the latest in a long line between us. Should anyone wish to draw the conclusion that I am a "typical man, being so shallow as to judge a woman by her looks and not her personality or intelligence" then they are quite welcome to.

Warren, I had a go with Brian E's compound a few weeks ago, and scared myself to death LOL!! No one told me they go BANG! It took me half an hour to stop shaking.

I took the Hun to indoor club night yesterday, just to show it off. I wasn't going to shoot it, as I only had my wimpy wooden quarters, but I did, and broke an arrow into 3 bits by hitting the wall! Doh!

What a lovely bow - you are very lucky. i hope you get many many hours of joy and entertainment out of it.

We have a fellow Archer at our club who also shoots the same sort of bow - and she swears by it - and she invested in "matching" arrows - made all the difference to her.

Thanks! I will get proper arrows, honest! I'm waiting for my bowtech to get organised, and stop wandering around at Borders...
