It means that the topic is bumped back to the top of the Hompage without the need for a comment... Generaly use to highlight a specific date coming round... It could also be a protesters chant for the release of an illegally imprisoned chap called Great Bump.. [cough]Blackadder[/cough] |
Cheers Dave.....

Diggle is a privately owned shoting range in North Yorkshire...

Close enough....it's in Lancashire, close to the Lancashire/West Yorkshire Border......about 20 miles from Manchester. Cheers for the bump though Dave COF is now available for those that need it. |

Thanks to all who turned out for the comp, and apologies for the mix up with the weather. Been promised a cracking day for our next and final comp of the year, on 18 October, in two weeks time. Congratulations to Dave W, who was in a class of his own on the day, in abysmal weather conditions. Man of the Comp. has to be young Dale (Timlad's 13 yearold son), shooting his first PR comp. On some stages he had run out of windage adjustment and was having to aim off over 2 feet. Some outstanding shooting by a young man more than capable of becoming a future champ if he keeps practicing. |
