Gun Club ?
Every Sunday morning for the past 20 (?) years or more heard the sound of gun shots, always wondered where it was, sounds like Great Harwood way, anybody know ? Doesn't bother me at all, not complaining, did bother a large alsation cross used to have, could never get her out on Sunday mornings.

Re: Gun Club ?
Trying to think now ... yes !! in the last but one play I did, couldn't pull the trigger though, so they had do a recording in case I failed. Pleased to say found the strength somehow. Had to shoot this young Sprugg, whoops sorry Sprogg.
