Gday squad... quick update. I have been told that we will be open this Friday from 12pm for DTL and S***t practise.
Thanks to Paul for stepping up, please give him a hand to set up and pack up.

For the bird shooters among us, have a look at this random paddock on a random road in Scotland. This was not a bird farm.

Gday Squad.
A quick up date...
We are back and open for business as per normal.
All Fridays and Wednesdays are back open from 12pm with the exception of Friday 23rd, we will be closed.
We currently have 2 of our main 3 range openers over seas and this obviously puts a big load on the remaining one, so some of these opening times may vary. Please get in and lend a hand where you can please.
We have the s***t comp this Sunday from 11am. Previously, we said that we were not running the Compak on the 1st November, Dave has said that he will be setting up and running. Again, if you can lend a hand, it is always appreciate! Both events are now open MCMS.
I have taken a break from doing sfa while away and have attended EJ Churchhill Seal Cove on the outskirts of Aberdeen Scotland.
I do have a few more grounds on my radar...

We are quickly coming up to the October races and the annual shut out period, we have not been advised of the exact dates but there is talk of having it extended due to the Vic pass being closed and the organisers offering more activities to spread out the departures... however we are but a small wheel in the Mt Panorama machine... we will let you know has soon as we hear.

Super fan Rob, sent in this sexy photo. If you come across an image that tickles you whiskers, send it to me as there's a good chance it will also tickle mine...🤣
