Right chaps things have been going on behind the scenes and a few options have emerged that I would like feedback on.
For those chaps that don't know about Munty1's place it is a hunting lodge not too far from London that would be a very cool place to have an evening out in the company of like minded folk, he needs a month's notice but I would say to go ahead and definitely arrange a meet at his place at some point.
Whilst that is being fleshed out I suggest we meet up for a mid-week pint just for the craic and would suggest either Wednesday 28th or Friday 30th ( though for reasons I will go into later I would much prefer the Friday ) of this month at the Red Lion on Crown Passage

From 6-7 pm onwards. Please let me know which dates people prefer.
There is one final option, I have taken the liberty of inviting stalkers and big game hunters not on this site to the meet on the basis of the more merrier and in the interests of anecdote potential . The gentleman with whom I have booked a trip to Africa this August turns out to have some land with fallow on it in East Sussex that need culling before season ends and had initially invited me out on Wednesday to have a session out in the high seat.
The long and the short of it is that he agrees that bums on seats are the way forward here and so the option is there if we can get a team of reasonably experienced, safe rifles together and have a session on the fallow on Wednesday night for free!
He can accommodate 6 comfortably so if the interest is there please be quick on this one and we can grab a cheeky one next week! Dinner and a pint in the pub across the road afterwards and I and probably at least one other guy will be driving back into London afterwards. Needless to say I'm liking this option.
Just to emphasise this is an absolutely free cull evening out on the high seat, all the usual rules apply and the man's rules are final. Give me a ring or drop me a pm if you need more info.
We can of course do all three!
