2010 TRADITIONAL ARCHERY GET TOGETHER

[little arrows]

only 2 new moons to go... (plus some odd days here and there)

sue

[jcm]

Your Tim Tams or Mine?
John

[little arrows]

I bet we'll eat both packs.

sue

[longbow steve]

I will bring a pack too, cant believe you guys ate TimTams last time without me .Steve

[longbowinfected]

Looking forward to this shoot. I hope that I will be able to shoot but if not I will come and annoy the crap out of people. Hate to think the camping ground would be quiet at night unecessarily. If I do shoot I will probably have to use a walking stick. Before anyone gets cheeky I'll warn you that it is a cane sword.....get the point?
Not too sure about Tim Tams...bit too sweet/too rich.
I will bring my last remaining top shelf bottle of Irish......should be worth as much as a pack of biscuits. The rest of my bottles evaporated....funny that how it evaporates when it hits ice.

Kev

[jcm]

The walking stick bow and some blessed mist from the clear waters of Irealand .
Now I will get a whole 24 hour pass.
Regards

John

Hey Jeffro,

be nice if you could get your dog minded and you could come to the shoot. Been a while.
Might be dog free shoot but the Irish and Tim Tams will be free.... For you and a half doz other desperates [including you Steve, John, Sue but mainly you Steve as you are a big sook and would complain if I forgot you]].....keep me on the straight and narrow.

Kev

[longbow steve]

Steve Wallace isn't a sook Kevin

[little arrows]

I didn't think you were a sook either, Steve.

and Kevin you won't be alone with the walking stick, SteveW has been using one of late since a spill a few weeks ago - still has to attach the quiver, a chair, binoculars and a retractable knife to it (by that time he probably won't need it).

cheers

Sorry to here Steve had a spill, I hope he's quickly on the mend. Looking fwd to seeing you both and the rest of the nrthrn rabble. My archery has gone to pot after all this sitting in front of computers work. I dont think Ill ever play the violin again. But it wont stop me tryin.

[longbowinfected]

"rabble".....I think the correct term is barbarian horde.

Kev

[jcm]

Mark and Kevin
Not a noisy or vulgar mob
Nor a brutal uncivilized lot
But a band of fellows and fellowettes out to send arrows skyward in the quest of having a pleasant outing in the company of
family and friends .
I look forward to catching up with you all .
John

[Stephen Georgiou]

Looks like my US trip is delayed so I will be there with bells on.
Definetly one not to miss.
See you all there.

I have just got a flatbow made from red ironbark from a real gentelman on an extended loan. It was made by one of his good friends and has been passed to me as it is a bit heavy for him. I was speechless! for those of you who know me that is a big thing!!!!

This is a wow bow!!
The picture does not do it justice

[longbow steve]

Cool ! Going to be a good weekend by the looks

[little arrows]

so that should be a site to behold - Stephen with bells on.

Now to a more serious matter...........I checked out the supermarket shelves while shopping during the week and there were 8 different Tim Tam flavours I could spy - so I will bring the Black Forest ones for our Tim Tam Tea Time in 2 new moons and a few days less than last time.

cheers

[Trad Bound]

Sue
Decisions, decisions oh why to they make so many types. You know Mint slices ( my favourite) come in one type.

Tony

[longbowinfected]

Stephen, if you move with your bells on and make a noise, we get to call you Tinkerbell?
I just had to ask. Not sorry.

Kev

[Stephen Georgiou]

[little arrows]

[jcm]

Count down started
John

[Guy Layton]

Gday All,

I have been speaking to Rob over the last few days and he has got some great ideas for some new events for this years shoot...! Its going to be a cracker...!

Looking forward to seeing you all again and also looking forward to shooting my new longbow...

Cheers Guy..

[little arrows]

............... 2 new moons and 8 days to go ................

cheers

sue

[Stephen Georgiou]

Broke my self bow so back to the old barbarian. Most reliable bow I have owned.
Just received my new arrows from little and big arrows (Sue and Steve Wallace)
Things of beauty! The arrows that is!
Will post pics tomorrow.
Black wattle footed hoop pine perfectly straight and balanced.
Real works of art!

Thanks again Sue and Steve for a wonderful service.

[longbowinfected]

You are on dangerous grounds again Tinkerbell.
I am not sure that Steve's exterior is beautiful but Sue certainly must think part of or all of Big Ara's package is beautiful. I certainly think that Sue qualifies for the category especially more so than when compared to you and I......our beauty is buried very deep brother.
How many sleeps Sue?
Kev

[little arrows]

now stop it you two

now Kevin, the first new moon is tomorrow night, the second new moon is the 6th October and then add the remaining days which equals 39 sleeps to go.

woohoo

cheers

sue

[jcm]

Counting Moons and days to hard. Just going to be the morrow plus some.
The pressures on - packs of Tim Tams.
Some Brass points and other gear from the Further land to get in for The Arrow Duo and others.
Looking forward to seeing you all.
John

[little arrows]

33 sleeps for most (a few less for us, the Fletcher needs a holiday!!) to go for this top shoot.

cheers

sue

[MrsStringnstik]

ooh, hey... I notice Safeway have Tim Tams on special this week... maybe a stock up is in order... (but, can I have them in the cupboard & not eat them.. or the kids not find them!? )

[longbowinfected]

Hide the biscuits in the vegetable box under the broccolli......they will never touch them.

Kev

[little arrows]

oh dash we don't have a Safeway store here - oh well !! never mind.

Had a thought (oh no, duck for cover everyone) = if we all turn up with Tim Tams, will we all get Tim Tammed out?

Will be confirming actual tea time shortly, having conversations with the shoot organiser director, big boss man.

cheers
