wasn't overly expensive from memory, I'm gonna say like £100 ball park.
with working in shitty London and so much else going on I was resigned to not getting to shoot until the summer but got taken to the range as a surprise treat. an excellent afternoon was had.
really liked the way their built their target backings as well, should be relatively easy to replicate, as we have plenty of shed space at the farm to set up a range, so hopefully in a few weeks I can get that sorted

Celebrating my birthday tonight at an all-you-can-eat steakhouse, one of those Brazilian places where they bring different cuts of meat to your table on skewer and cut you off pieces right there.

Some advice, don't bother with the sides at those places. Waste of time and lacklustre. Stick to the meats.

Also, Happy Birthday!

Oh my god I ate too much. They kept coming with the meat swords and I kept saying yes. Well, I said no to the poor bastards carrying around chicken and pork, screw those guys. All the beef and lamb were welcome though. I stayed away from the sides mostly, until the rest of my table was finished and inpatient to go home and I wasn’t full yet. I’m uncomfortable and afraid of the repercussions of this meal.

Congrats dude.

Is there an e-book version? Who's your preferred retailer? Or can we get it from a more direct source instead of retailers/middle men?

I last had this delectable treat at least 5 years ago. I remember thinking 'my god is this the best thing I will ever eat'? Five years later I can say yes, yes it was!

I tried to make them last. We got 3 days! It was a valiant effort but I coulndt stretch the bag further than that. Now I need more!

Should sweets make me this happy?

As far as I know it's just on Kindle for now. It's an anthology though so mine is just a short, but still, nice.

Don't forget the laminated fiberglass, or that piece of wood might throw you for a spin.

Beech, Poplar, Bamboo, and Birch are your 4 woods that make up most boards, but I can't help but think that Macros's board is made of Hawthorn wood, with unicorn hair for its core, and is 'reasonably pliant.'
