We so look forward to seeing everyone each year. As always we had a great time at Grandpa's. We wish to thank eveyone who were able to come this year. We so enjoy seeing all of you. We feel so blessed to be able to have been able to have hosted this great event for so long. Thank you.
Digger and crew.

I have so much fun and get to be with such wonderful people for the Flatwater weekend. THANK YOU Digger and company. We need to have more Flatwater chatter throughout the year so we can recruit the next generation (people under forty as Pancho says) to start coming. Thanks again and thanks to Pancho for letting me shoot your Dickson!

Despite my late arrival due to car problems, which caused some concern from the group wondering where I was, which was very pleasing to me, as it meant I really have Flatwater friends for real!
Saturday was a super day, I hit more than I missed with my 1927 Evans.
I really enjoyed the Traditional Steakfest, steaks were superb and I am glad my Canadian Pure Rye donation to the table was well received. Mr Voss strongly approved
KGB exchanged with me a bottle of Templetons for a bottle of Canadian Pure Rye and I will be interested in his report on the comparison!
So a hearty thanks indeed, and I hope to see you for FW 2013!

I should note my thanks also to Mike Bonner, the coach, for his help with my problem shots. Of course I had all kinds of back-up help from the thirty man squad, but Mike's coaching will last longer. :wink:

Digger, thanks for another great event. You and you crew do an outstanding job of keeping our plates full and our shell bags empty.

I had a great time Digger. Just got home 72.5 hours and 1730 miles since I left. Think I'll go lay my body down for a while now. Thanks again.

Absolutely thanks again, Digger! The days can drag leading up, but that's a quick block of days when it finally arrives. I add my thanks to Pancho for the loan of the Dickson and also for the chance to shoot a few other non-Scottish, but nevertheless very nice guns. Maybe I should consider something from Birmingham after all. And thanks to Mikey for the Rye/Rye exchange----to include supplying one for the table so I could sample it before breaking the seal on mine own!

Had a great time again, Larry. Much longer trip for me now, from Wisconsin, but well worth it. And thanks for "de-ticking" my head, without removing any precious hair!
