Tonight's AGM... why tonight for starters?

Yep and it's due to be dry but cold and breezey again tonight from 7pm...

Please let sanity prevail and lets hold this indoors (either tonight or next Wednesday).
If anyone's personal risk profile (e.g. covid-related) makes them uneasy, they can wear a mask (as my wife and I did for months whenever we were indoors in public, long after 95% of citizens stopped wearing them), simples.

Cheers. Russ

Evening all, my apologies if my OP (first post) came across as a bit belligerent, that honestly wasn't my intention.
I just got a real bee in my bonnet about not wanting to be sat outside in the cold for a few hours.

Happy shooting all, and thank-you to everyone on the committee, both outgoing and incoming (claps).

Cheers. Russ

Thanks again to all who took the time to attend last night, to the committee (and the many helpers) for all their largely unsung background work, which keeps our awesome club running.

Thanks to those who stepped up to offer help from here onwards, your injection of new blood will both be invaluable going forwards, and will help ease the load on those who've been doing it all up to this point.

The AGM was held indoors in the end (albeit announced at the last minute), who knows if attendance might have been greater had this been announced beforehand, or if too many are simply not interested if asked to do something other than just attend and shoot(?)

All the best, cheers. Russ

Oh dear, it's a shame that you couldn't have been so honest in some of your air gun reviews! This new out burst of compassion & honesty would have saved me a fortune in some of your recommendations on buying kit.

My thanks to the outgoing and incoming committee for the hard work done in the past and for the future. A thankless job - as shown on this forum by some and only posted in the 11th hour to the start to the AGM. This is a once-a-year event. With e-mails about the meeting having been around since the last AGM and the notification of this year's AGM dually sent within the month leading up to it and reminders in last few weeks. Which gave time enough for any concerns to be addressed by members of the club with our elected committee, should these issues have been raised beforehand, and not on the morning of the meeting. This subject was not even bought up at the AGM on the night. An unwarranted & unnecessary moan on a public forum with poor timing and no follow up by him I shall not name, as he is a bunny killer.

A Big thank you to Bri & Steve for all that you have done over the years as committee members (and that is more than most members know). The pair of you deserve a break and can now sit back and have a moan or two on the house - Thank you for your service as the Jack Rabbits would say.    

I also agree with Bri, the food was great, but was not too keen on the starter, after meeting drinks went down well, however having Chris Ward as the stripper in drag was too much. 

Apologies, I was on-call and couldn’t make it. Nothing to present, but grateful to all involved, past and present for their efforts to make the club a safe and successful place for everyone who attends.

Yes, Yes with so much self / club promotions going on at the moment, I thought I would jump on the band wagon as well. My little animal K9 friend at waulkmill, a King Charles has knighted me this morning by post and a wag of his tail. This should keep his Worshipful, The Field Marshal of Waulkmill (Paul the Engine) in check, when talking about stone cutting tools. However, reports of   "His worshipful the Field Marshall" (if you're on first name terms with him) continue to filter through that he has been seen (again) riding the Waulkmill donkey, maybe in an act to gain a more Godley position in his elevation to " His Worshipful". Jesus rode his donkey side saddle, our H.W. T. F.M of Waulkmill rode his more in a honey bunny style, bless him. Guess I now have opened up Hare baiting season? Oh dear me, my ears are burning.
