Sucks having to explain one's own joke. Happy to step in and do the honours for you, Ted. I missed being there and hope you and Lloyd don't give up on me in the future.

Got out yesterday quickly for a preserve shoot. 20 min from my house. Low key, unorganized, 300 acres by myself with Scout. Lovely hunting weather. The perfect preserve shoot. Used a nice little Belgian Pieper 16 with Gamebore 21/2" shells. First time it's taken birds down since a full restoration. It's not a light 16 at 6lb 10 oz, but well balanced with 29" barrels. Quite pretty. I like it!

A very nice day and now to decide how to cook the pheasant and chukar. Scout's lying around wondering why we aren't back there today. Lol
