So Archery in the 21st century turns out to be a hell of a lot different from the Archery of the 11th Century (circa R.Hood). For one, the arrows have fluro coloured fletching ( I had the pink ones). Also, something I learned today, archery is a lot harder than various portrayers of Robin Hood make it look, especially considering they didn't have an "aimy thing" to help them. This probably wasn't aided by the fact that one of the members of our novice group actually knew what he was doing thus making me feel relatively incompetent.
The trip home was almost as entertaining as the actual bow-and-arrow-ing. An anxiously awaited trip to the "berry place" which turned out to be closed, followed by a greatly anticipated stop off at the Emerald Bakery which was also closed. Logically, resulting in pizza and ice cream to drown our sorrows.
All in all, the day was a succesful one; a new experience, creation of the first ZoHan blog along with it's first activity of blogament.
One of us was a show off...
