We are currently downloading from him, his escapades whilst on his very first school camp.
I asked what activities they did and one of the things he mentioned was archery.
ooo "you should have been good at that" I said. "Yes" he replied, "the teacher knew straight away that I knew what I was doing". 'And then after my first round and I got a good score and told them, of course I did well i'm the state champion"
My apologies here to anyone on this board who is or has been a real champion.
A little later on I got some more out of him.
"Dad, everyone was watching me shoot and I could here them whisper..."did you know he's the state champion","he's really good isnt he".. "Then my teacher decided to really test me. He hung his lanyard off a nail in the target and hung an apple off the lanyard. Told me to hit the apple." "And did you try", I said. "Better than that, I shot , missed the apple but hit the lanyard and the apple fell to the ground."
Quick as a flash my boy then said
"I meant that, the apple was a bit big...too easy"
How can you not smile, cry and laugh at the lad for puttin it on ..and getting away with it.
