Hi Kirk,
Pooka and myself made it, and glad we did despite the weather predictions of gale force winds, rain and cold.
It did start off a little cold and rainy, but not windy. By 11ish the sun was shining and wet gear was coming off, only to go back on later at the end of the day when the light left us.
Great course as ever with a nice xmasy twist to a few of the targets/marshalls with a smooth flow of archers all having fun. The moving target is always exciting and our group of 3 hit it (of course my red/white arrow had no element of luck  ) flying javelina, rudolph the deer and a real mixed bag of off putting size/distance shots make for a great day out.
We all gave more money for Edward and the collections hopefully will continue for some time to come. 
To complete my day I won the top raffle prize of a wonderful KG Archery Cobra bow...wow  ...I know our junior club members will appreciate this beautiful bow for some time to come.
Thank you Spirit.

Thanks for the report and great pics Cobrawolf, i wish i'd have been there.
Looks like it was great fun with the moving targets, and what a raffle prize.
The best I've won is a bottle o Scotch.

I take it that the Scotch is severely depleted by now?
