Lots of the professionals in the society think their presence on the Robin Hood

film set this week is unique to them personally.Sorry.We all know about it! See

you there!



The Relay Race Invite is now in its 5th edition & limited to people over 18 but

in the true Olympics tradition anyone can join it.



I`ve just posted off 500 postcards and 2000 stickers advertising the

Openweekend`s web site to many Young Farmers Clubs County Secretaries and they

have got to then send them off to the 20 to 30 clubs they represent. So there is

a good chance the actual young farmers themselves might not hear about the race

so I have just written to Farmers Weekly. Hopefully they will print the 5th

edition invite and advertise the film I just made with Peter and placed on You

Tube.

Yesterday I spent the day sticking posters up in a 10 mile radius and I`m going

round local factories emploring & cajoling! No one has offered free use of

portable toilets.No one has offered to lend me a coracle and I need 9.So I`m

thinking now of quickly knocking out a bunch of willow coracles and came to this

group just now looking for the address of the canvas supplier!

    How many is lots of professionals and why were you not there Q

Ha Ha I was just having a laugh as usual



I`m not a professional so I wasnt there.



I was too busy here going round local factories inviting relay race teams and at

this time and date despite doing a mail shot to all the Young Farmers Clubs I

have exactly zero teams entered! and no scaffolding to build a landing and

launching platform.



Looks like another £1000 loss on another coracling event!

The object of the exercise of course was to get everyone to read the message

about the forthcoming event on July 25th!
