Ive got two plinking targets I will bring - may even have another one by then. Also will bring a bunch of 6 yard pistol targets and a light weight pellet trap I use with my pistol.  I will make up a box of plaster of paris targets we can have some fun turning to dust as well.

Hi Folks,
We are a week away.
The farm owners have asked me how many people we are expecting, so they know how many rooms to make up but I dont quite know...?
We have had interest from a few folks. Whos still keen?
I'll definatly be going down on Friday 20th with my son and staying till Monday 23rd.

This is open to anyone on the forum, all are welcome. Accommodation is $35/night for a dorm bed with shared bathroom and kitchen, or $100/night for a cabin that sleeps 2 and uses the same shared bathrooms and kitchen.
You dont need to stay the whole weekend, if you can only make a night or two thats great, come along.
Kitchen has a stove, microwave, crockery and cutlery, fridges and instant hot water.

If you are planning on coming along please drop me a text to let me know numbers, my number is oh too one, 6three 9three 76. Will also share the exact address/location of the farm if you dont know where it is already.

If anyone uses whatsapp you'll know how easy it is to communicate with whatsapp. I'll start a group to keep everyone informed and up to date (should have done this a month ago).

Also looking for a few bags of fire wood if you have any, and bring along a camping chair to sit around the fire.
Bring plinking targets too   

Thanks,
Pete.

Nicely organised Pete.

I'm sorry I can't make it, but I look forward to a few photos, maybe even videos.

Ive got a commitment through to early Saturday afternoon but should be able to get there before 6pm.   I'm intending to  return home Monday.  No problem organising some firewood and I will have at least 4 plinking targets and some plaster of paris targets as well as some 6 yard pistol targets.  Will bring my Hatsan Carnivore .30 break barrel, my Webley Mark 1 pistol and at least one other gun.  Not sure if I'll have a scope on the Hatsan or not - depends on how things pan out over the week.

I'll also bring one of my cheapo trail cams.

It's around 4 hrs drive from here and according to "Aunty Google" the shortest route from here is via Woodville, Ashurst, Colyton, Vinegar Hill. If that fits in with anyone else I will have space in my car for another person.

Hi EC,

You'll be passing within 2 kms of my place (between Feilding and Colyton) as you journey up and down.

If you fancy a cuppa on the way there or back, do pop in!  Smile

If you have time to call in, let me know and I'll PM you with my details.....
