Dark Nights Are Approaching
Well it would appear that the nights are getting longer as we draw further into the colder months of the year.
This however has not stopped you from coming along and shooting in and evening. Last night was the first time this year that we had to put the flood lights on at the castle. and we were shooting until about 9:30 pm. It was a nice mild, clear night with a full moon adding to the atmosphere of the place and every one here enjoyed the evening. Most of you had not shoot under these conditions before and you all commented on how different it was and how much you enjoyed it more.
It's very strange the things you can find the morning after a night of shooting and this morning was no exception to that. A list of items found this morning is below.
2 nocks were found 1 orange and 1 black
2 fletchings were found 1 black and 1 blue
Common items to be found I know but the most bizarre thing to find was a 'Black Detachable Shoulder Strap form a Bra'
Would the owner of said item please like to explain how they lost this in the first place and how you didn't notice that you lost it!! Could it just be a case of you may be embarrassed to say that it was yours?
Mention of having a Party before Christmas was being bantered about by several members over the last few days and the suggestion of having a BBQ at the castle one evening may be the better option. Food, Drinks, Good Company ( allegedly ) at the place you like be at. Doing this would keep the costs down and also means everyone can come along. i.e. no age restrictions.
What do you think? This will also be put out in a news letter to all soon, for the benefit of those that don't check here often enough. It will also be mentioned at the next few shoot nights.
After the rove shoot a few weeks ago now, several awards have be put together for some of the people that took part and the party would be a good place for them to be presented.
Until next time then.

The BBQ idea sounds like a good idea to me what a cool place to have it. I did not lose the Black Detachable Shoulder Strap as I only wear them at the weekend. lol
Well that's 1 more person crossed of the list craig, you only wear them at weekends and i'll only ever wear white.
BBQ sounds best option for most at this time just need to set a date. See you all on Tuesday
