Don't...

A couple of years back,three of us are coming back from a HFT at Lee Valley,so little car,three guys,four guns. We get cut up on the turn off on to the M25( for our American friends,this is 'the road to hell' from the Chris area song),and got forced on the road down towards Edgeware(kinda like a third world town).

We're stuck in traffic outside a pub were opposing football fans are starting to kick off,and the paddy wagons are arriving in force.... :whistle:

Does anyone have any paper targets?  I know I have some somewhere but for the life of me I can't find them. :think:  I'm thinking I might have left them at the club, which means they're now long gone. ::)

I'm going to pick up some CO2 later on, I'll get some targets as well.

I'm only bringing the CP88, I don't have anything else that doesn't require an FAC

Good man Smashie.  Don't go spending too much money though, it's only for a bit of fun. :)

Have you got a target holder? if so, what size does it take?

Why do I feel like I've now got a missile locked onto me? :D

Cheers for that mate.  I've got a wooded backboard that we can pin the targets to, so it doesn't matter the size. :tu:

I'm no where near ready.

I haven't got any clean clothes to pack, so my machine is going on tomorrow morning.
I haven't found things I need to find.
I haven't got any food.
I haven't gone to get the chair I'm borrowing.
I haven't got round to acquiring wood. In fact, I might pop back to work and to a bit of smashing now.

Etc etc.

Well, I've got plenty of wood to be touching!

Thanks to some smashie smashie with my friends Mr Fubar and Mr Jecub, I have a car full of wood.

Put pallets on tines like so:



Lower tines, thereby stripping most of the planks off ready to be finished with the Fubar.



Line boot with non-poke-y bits:



Fill boot:



I really hope I don't need to get at the spare tyre...

For anyone that's interested, you can fit about 4 broken pallets in the boot of a Hyundai i30. This was a mixture of beefy and weedy pallets. I slightly over estimated, and had to put some bits in the back of the car as I took 5 pallets.

If anyone has a big magnet they can bring along that might be helpful  :tu:
