Hi everyone! :wales: As you can tell from the flag Im from Wales!... In a little village called Rhoose right next to the airport. Looking forward to being a art of this forum and learning from the masters? hahaha! Im sure there are numerous members with a fountain of knowledge to help me started with shooting. As of yet I still havent got my SGC or FAC but have applied and look forward to going shopping for my first piece of kit. Hopefully Im going to make some new friends and contacts from Wales on here as well as having some fun and good ol' banter!
:shakeshout:

p.s. Im not sure what type of shooting I want to follow but I like the look of clay DTL and ABT and I also want to try 200 yard target shooting at a local club.

I never thought Rhoose was *that* bad - certainly not the country's 'bottom'! :lol:

Hahaha Rox.... its not bad at all really... its a lovely village... even though the airport backs onto the garden the noise doesnt disturb at all even in the peak season. And you say it as if you know Rhoose (Rhws)... do you?

Only in passing, and mainly from my hazy student days. Most of my family came from Cardiff.
