I haven't the faintest idea, given that I've given you the heads up before it's officially announced I doubt BICTSF know, as their technical commission member didn't attend the meeting, let alone the CPSA.
Yes Robert, you would think that somebody from the UK would have shown up! I get totally confused as to who runs what these days.
I was on the FITASC Technical Commission for ten years, it's a personal nomination, a member federation doesn't get someone on the commission by right. I stood down in 2014 to let a younger person to take over, something I sincerely regret now. The decision to change from a squad system to the 'snake' is the most important for the discipline since it's inception in the 50's and not to have someone from GBR at the meeting is insane.
I've been to plenty of small shoots in France, enjoyed a very pleasant lunch, and then had to fend off my French friends generously plying me with a 'little' eau de vie, calvados or whatever the local hooch is to go with my café. Hic!
Phil, so who was our man who didn't attend the meeting? As for the French, well they do seem to like their lunches and a small tipple, I've not shot in France but I know some guys who have. It does seem as though they take lunch a little more seriously than we do at our grounds!
I'll have to refer you to the BICTSF or FITASC website they're named there. I've never refused to eat at a French shooting ground, there's plenty over here I take home made food.Phil, so who was our man who didn't attend the meeting?
