Wedding present
Posted: Tue Oct 18, 2011 9:11 am
Hey folks,
After many years of talking about it Heather and I finally decided to take the plunge and got married on the 1st of October at her grandparents farm in Kingaroy.
Any way that's not the imortant bit......... after our ceremony was over and we were standing around with all our guests getting photos taken, (you know the stuff that ya have to go through because "Auntie Mavis" who you spend your whole life trying to avoid because she drives you nuts
, has to get in every photo, and her 2 derelict sons decided to turn up because they heard the word "beer" 
..........well you know what I mean. Anyway she who now must be obeyed dissappears inside the house and returns with a bloody great big parcel wrapped in a forest of paper and the biggest blody bow you've ever seen and says here this is yours.
So in front of everyone on the farm I unwrap this monster to find that inside is a brand new FX Royale in .177 with scope
, mounts and all the gear. Needless to say you know what I spent our wedding night doing after the reception at midnight......putting my new toy together so that I could get back up to the farm the morning to try it out 
.
So far I'm happy to report that it shoots like stink and the Kingaroy Indian Myna population really hates it!!!!!!!
The only problem I've found with it so far is there is this inscription on it which says " Remember honey....Whats yours is now MINE"
Anyway I'm looking forward to giving it a bit more of a run and will keep everyone posted on the progress.
