when are you going to polish the blades of grass in the camp paddock and place all the deadwood and tree limbs in front of where the left handed archers shoot?

Anyone polish the cup?

Me I am busy buying the Irish and Saos

ok people you have 6 sleeps to go......

There are two camps of Qld'ërs here at the moment enjoying the scenery, the courses, the weather and the company.

We believe stringnstik and family plus Redkev are leaving tomorrow...

Mr Kev longbowinfected, have found the Tim Tam Cup and will polish it before the weekend, plus we are working on a nighttime Tim Tam Tea Cup Novelty Event for Saturday night.
So make sure you all bring a good torch........... :biggrin:

Saos and Irish, now that is a strange combination...... :smile:

cheers

Unfortunately i have to have an endoscopy at the end of this week so I cannot drive for 24 hours. Earliest I can go is very late arvo Saturday. Luckily we have daylight saving so I might get to plink away with a few arrows Saturday.

Kev
never complain....you did not have to wake up....every day is an extra bonus and costs nothing.

The Tim Tam Cup has been found, and the Tim Tam Cup course was done today......
Will need 3 more empty Tim Tam packets before Saturday nights Tim Tam Cup Novelty shoot .... :smile: John do you have any just lying around, I really don't think I can get through that many in 4 days................. :oops:

cheers
sue

some trivia for you - did you know that 1 in every 2 households contains a packet of Tim Tams. However I think jcm would makeup for the few that don't... :lol:
If only we could convert them to Trad Archery as well. :smile:

Sue ,
There is a large section of a fridge taken up with cooling Tim Tams.
You and Steve should call in for a cuppa and a Tim Tam before Saturday.
No sign of the points.

I notice the "Banning" of the mention of the Arnott's Chocolate Biscuit Delight- most unfair to the lovers of the Tastie Treat.
See you all there with your packs

Departing 2.30 am Friday.

Post reply if you need more Tim Tams. Need to leave some space for the bows and arrows.
