Spent a nice if long tiring day at the Husbands Bosworth festival helping at a Have-a-Go archery session.

‘Festival’ would be a tad of an overstatement compared to say Glastonbury, but despite some occasional rain a reasonable flow of people stepped up to shoot some arrows at targets. It felt a bit weird as someone with only a few months under the belt explaining the basic idea to others but everyone seemed to enjoy the experience. A common refrain was “its harder than it looks”. er, yes I can confirm it is.

So some money in the club coffers, a chance to talk in a more social context with some other club members and an on-your-feet burn-some-calories type day. An all-round win.
