The Shooting Booth Is Re-Emerging. Got to Love Mrs TinCan

[TinCan Tony]

Many of you know of my COPD problems and my neighbourhood changes, which are restricting my chances of shooting/plinking on the lawn in the middle of my garden.

I told Mrs TinCan I need to do a bit of pruning at the bottom of the garden to uncover my shooting booth that's been reclaimed by nature over the past 4 years.

Somewhere under there is my 5ft (H) x 4ft (W) shooting booth...

Without me knowing it, Mrs TinCan has been busy with the loppers and sheers. And she's managed to uncover my shooting booth.
She's also been busy with the rake and weedstop and covered most of the ground...

My shooting booth is starting to emerge once again.

I had nothing to do with this. Mrs TinCan did it all herself...

Mrs TinCan is going to cover the whole area with weedstop and I've just ordered some high-quality artificial lawn to complete the job. Not just cheapo strips of astro-turf, but a complete 5m x 3m artificial lawn to cover the whole area.

And guess who's going to be laying it for me?

It's going to look pretty good by the end of the week.

Just got to love Mrs TinCan.

[SEAN]

Does she have a sister?

 

[Trumpetier]

God bless that woman

 

[TinCan Tony]

Does she have a sister?

She does.
But, believe me, you don't want to know her.

 

[SEAN]

She does.
But, believe me, you don't want to know her.

Sit her in the booth holding up the targets

 

[TinCan Tony]

God bless that woman

There will never be another one like her in my life.

That's why I'm keeping her all to myself.

 

[TinCan Tony]

Yep.

Have had for over 23 years.

 

[Byronic]

Yep.

Have had for over 23 years.

"Once you have found her
Never let her go"
in the words of the song.

She is an absolute diamond.

[Byronic]

isnt that imprisonment?

Nope, it's romantic.

Which can lead to a life sentence, apparently.

[TinCan Tony]

The new artificial lawn turned up today.

And Mrs TinCan has been very busy clearing out all the sh1t and laying the underlay...

Just got to love that woman.

It's getting there...

It's all coming together.

 

[Ian Cartmell]

I'm so glad you didn't break a sweat helping her... Got to save your energy for blowing things up...

 

[TinCan Tony]

There's still a long way to go yet.

But I'm sure Mrs TinCan will complete it for me.

 

[That hurts]

Looking good Tony

 

[TinCan Tony]

Looking good Tony

It's getting there - slowly.

 

[That hurts]

It's getting there - slowly.

Get her to sink a few holes and you could take up golf too
