Unfortunately blogs such as this can become magnets for spam, as various two bit blogs try to get links back to themselves by posting comments on this site, in the hope you may visit them. As I’m getting fed up of removing half a dozen spam comments a day, I have now turned comments off.

Happy New Year!
Jan 2nd, 2011 by sandrine
Best wishes to all in this new year 2011.
The year started well with a good turnout at the first Frostbite of 2011. A reasonably mild and dry day allowed some fun and good shooting. This was followed by some well deserved soup/roll/tea/cake (not necessarily in that order…).
Well done to Rob whose shoulder copped with the whole shoot!
A very good potential quote was expressed but as an over18 one, it is unprintable…
Next Frostbite very soon, let’s make it an even better turnout!

Traditional BOH Christmas of ‘fish and chips’!! Please add your name on the attendance sheet at the Club.
BOH Xmas 2010
Following a couple of very busy Beginners’ Courses, welcome to our new members!!
Previous newsletters’ highlights were often the ‘Quote of the Month’. I suggest starting this again and will welcome any witnessed quotes.
The first one to feature is:
‘There is something quite intimate in putting someone’s arrows in their quiver…’ of the newly joined Tony.
November ’10 Tiddler
Dec 5th, 2010 by sandrine
Winter (although officially still Autumn only…) is upon us. Ideal for a little tiddling indoors on Thursdays!
The archer who scored best over a minimum of 2 Tiddlers in November is David Stanley.
Congratulations to David who can collect and keep the Tiddler’s Trophy for this month.
Le Tiddler

Oh well, website photo retrieval seems to be troublesome to hard-working Web Administrator Petras. So, Le Tiddler Archers are posted again:
March 2010
Then the rules were updated for fairness: the winning score is calculated on the total of the 2 highest scores made by an archer on the Tiddler.
To entertain ourselves a bit more, Vix has kindly offered her creative skills to challenge us to a ‘Guess Who Tiddler’ photo.
So, here is the April Winner:

The April winning score was a total of 469. Well done Mystery Archer!
The true identity of the April Tiddler best archer is to be revealed next week…
30th Anniversary Cake Bake

On the day before the anniversary shoot, Barbara and Sandrine held ‘the cake bake‘ to make the anniversary cakes. This was a blow by blow account on the Blog, now lost. However the photos still remain and here they are:

Jun 5th, 2010 by admin
This is from the BOH 30th Anniversary shoot on March 28th 2010 – restored from a duplicate I had on my own server.
The BOH 30th anniversary Vegas was well attended with a packed shooting line. This was probably the first Vegas at the club anyone could remember for a long time, and proved to be an enjoyable occasion.
The awards were as follows:
- Gents Recurve 1st: Graham Hartley
- Gents Recurve 2nd: Peter Zymanczyk
- Ladies Recurve 1st: Jenny Charman
- Ladies Recurve 2nd: Sandrine Esteban
- Compound 1st: Len Rush
- Compound 2nd: Norman Hicks
- Juniors 1st: John Williams
- Juniors 2nd: Victoria Saduikis
Time For Plan B
Jun 5th, 2010 by admin
It looks like I won’t be recovering our Newsletter/Blog from our old hosting provider Weycrest – as they have gone bust. If you want to check out the list of unhappy people see http://www.webhostingstuff.com/review/Weycrest.html . Luckily our Bowmen of Harrow domain was registered in my name, so I was able to approach the regulatory body Nominet and transfer it to our new host, having recognised that the Weycrest ship was sinking. Some people haven’t been so lucky and are now locked in lengthy disputes.
All this means I will now go to Plan B, and just re-post the 30th Anniversary photos, and carry on from there. I was hoping to get back some of the money paid for hosting, but no chance now. Luckily this only amounts to around thirty quid. At least we have a reliable web host now (fingers crossed!).
What happened to the newsletter???
Jun 1st, 2010 by petras
Sorry folks, but all the previous content of this blog has been left trapped on Weycrest’s server (we used to use Weycrest as our web host, until one hot day on May 23rd when all their servers went down for over a week). I have now moved our website to be hosted by Tsohost, but I still have to recover all our blog content from Weycrest once they get all their servers up.
