    OK all you good buggers that are planning to attend Toby's funeral to celebrate his life and send him off in fine fashion on Tuesday, I have just been speaking with Toby's mum Julie and she has asked me to tell you all that as part of the funeral plan for Toby they are going to take Toby to his rifle range for an hour before they take the final journey to the crematorium. You are invited to bring a rifle with you and have one last shoot with him. Brads given the plans we were making with Toby this time last week, I think you should definitely bring your .338 and I will bring my 300 and we can make some noise together in his honour.

    Julie has also asked if some from our fraternity could speak for Toby at the service. I for one am certainly happy to give that a whirl even though I am sure I will need to choke back a tear to do it.

    See you there fellahs

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Goodbye Toby we will remember you

    It's seems only appropriate to throw the 243 in as well Rushy
    Edit: I'm sure you have a 270

    If you did that to me I would haunt you for 50years and fist you with a huge handful of ghost chips and .243 rounds every night.
    Toby did have class in his calibre choices.

    Gonna be strange not seeing his name pop up on the board. Thoughts are with his family.
