243, I think it's great if you get the SOTY thing happening. BY the sounds of things, the boys have advised you well.
Let's hope it works out. Bye the way, what happened to the Tamworth Fly Shoot ? I used to read about it .

Mate from what i can tell it was that certain memebers were interested in and other weren't.When the interested parties were sick of organizing it it fell in a heap and has just been a club thing ever since.



AS for the SOTY i spoke to Jim, and he's happy for it to be apart of it, i now have to speak to Stuart and will be getting his number today.Hopefully by the end of the week i will have it sorted so i can start getting numbers.

Thanks fellas

Ok gents i have started a email account just for our fly comp.

tamworthflyshoot@hotmail.com

If you are wanting to come please let me know via email so i can have and idea on numbers.

I haven't spoken to Stuart as yet but will be doing so in the next day or so.He might be hard to reach at the moment.

As it stands i have allowed for 24 guns.So as we can get a smooth running event.As JR said we have catered for 41 but i doubt (would love to be wrong) we will get this. Iam hoping to have a good idea by the 30th april so i can fianize tucker and drinks.If i don't get enough numbers to break even by then i will consider pulling the pin so as not to bugger around any of the travellers.

If you are sure you wanna attened please email me at the above address.


Cheers Matt

I will be doing a bench allocation in the coming weeks so if you could let me know. That would be great
