Archery!

Yesterday I tried my hand at Archery. Glasgow Archers were having a taster day on the South Side of the City. So daughter and I went over.
It wasn't necessary to pull any strings to have a go......you just paid £3 per 12 arrows.

I was slightly disappointed to find the Archers not in Lincoln Green, wearing Robin Hood type hats with a feather, or those long curly toed sandals. No cloaks either. Just red T Shirts with the RAF logo.
Ah well, in such ways are dreams dashed.

But the sun was shining, the sky blu, and my freshly washed car gleaming in the car park. Daughter had been told about the event by one of her Uni pals.

My daughter turned out to be a better shot than me. These things happen. It was a fun experience for all, though I doubt I am interested enough to become a member.

But if I change my mind, I will fly like an arrow to the South Side, string my bow, and let fly!
