Doing something dangerous on the water to raise money for the RNLI...

[Praxinoscope]

Daydream believer, I agree years ago it was straight forward getting a fire arms licence and in fact I found my old expired licence in the loft the other day. It’s not so easy now, I used to shoot small bore rifle, large bore 303, and rapid fire pistol back in the 70’s, so the Very pistol was just a simple addition, of course no longer allowed to posess a hand gun any more, and I gave up on the others when I moved abroad for my work.
A shotgun licence is a doddle compared to getting a ‘proper’ fire arms licence nowadays.
And as you say in your prvious post can’t get the shells anymore in the UK.

We have raised nearly £600 now... With the current forecast the swim will be happening this Saturday!

I will be bravely supporting the swimmers from the comfort of "Lively Lady". We also have two kayakers that will be close at hand in case the swimmers need help.

They made it across! It was a cold day, force 5 and quite choppy...

Nearly £1000 raised for the RNLI...
