Re: HM The Queen's Prize
Thanks for the 'breaking news' Iain...that's some outrageously good shooting tongueout
There hasn't been much talk on here about the 'TR' part of the Imperial - I've been reading the blog on the NRA site, and it looks like our very own Gaz M had a good meeting...
...so TR guys; how did it go?

I wuz ill - luckily there is not an emoticon showing the sort of ill I was.
Either I caught a stomach bug (which seemed to be going around some areas of camp) or ate some dodgy meat.
Apart from that it wasn't really a good meeting for me but hey ho there's always next year . . .

SteveE did very well too - another 105 in the National Match for England and won the TWP Agg as well as shooting a tie shoot against the Palma Captain Jane Messer for the Century.
