Today I visited my parents (its Sunday, and I was hungry), as soon as I got there I knew something was up as my dad was beaming like a lunatic.
Obviously we've been talking about next weekends a lot, he used to love camping in his youth an he's just as excited as me even though ill health will never see him under canvas again.
Anyway, he asked about you guys an what were planning on doing while we've down there and I happened to mention that a load of you fine chaps were doing some air rifle target shooting thingy stuff...ā¦ Spot the guy who's never held an air rifle before lol!
Any ways, that was a few days ago, today he presented me with this, a relic from his youth, a gift from father to son.
You chaps probably know a lot more than me but apparently its a BSA Cadet Major from around the 1950's.
I doubt its up to modern standards and after all these years of bein tucked away in the loft probably has the power of a strong fart, but still, what an amazing gift!
