Recently with Ann at work, Alana at a friends and Danielle at a birthday party it was time for the boys to escape! Years ago I used to be an archer (some of you will know this). A very expensive and time consuming sport that I liken to fly fishing as far as gear and maintaining gear goes. Anyway Samuel and I headed off to the local indoor archery range, AimTru, for some fun.
My one consolation was the staff member who asked if I had "
...shot before? " "
Ah hem, years ago when I was a student, not for a long time." "
You can tell, your technique is still very good." Ego suitably massaged we set about shooting. The targets say it all: the one on the left is mine the image below is Samuels' and well - the bulls eyes are all
Samuel's!!
Samuel's!!
