Sunshine and arrows ❀️🏹

Ok so it’s gonna be a hot weekend folks, please stay safe, sun hats, sun cream, hydrate and when you can get out of the sun and into the shade, difficult for archers I know and even more so for those of us who sit and have agents. Think carefully about both short and long term risks please – I became a sun ambassador and I push this often so you likely stopped hearing me and see it as nagging but it’s important 😎

Another month done for the #greatarrowcount and my stats have been submitted for May to AGB. Still not found the balance between the new job and my shooting so April saw me shoot 60% of my desired arrow volume and May only 54% but lots of arrows planned for this weekend so hopefully I can get back on track soon. Across the 2 months I have had 5 scores to submit and things seem to be starting to settle after the required tweaking though I think there’s still a bit of fine tweaking to do.

I have lots of news and though it’s different it all links to a particular topic and I am going to save it for Tuesdays end of week blog as that feels appropriate. So far this week it’s been lots of meetings and I have lots of emails to send over this weekend so please bear with me πŸ€—β€οΈπŸΉ

stay safe and enjoy the weekend

Busy, busy, busy – planning πŸ§πŸ˜‰πŸ₯°πŸΉ

So very much to plan, exciting things, buzzing with what is happening and as details are firmed I will of course, share. Also catching up on a number of things as it was a crazy few days in the day job and I literally struggled to keep my eyes open in the chair at the hairdressers as we waited for the colour to take! Whilst a sign I am in a place where I can relax also a reminder that I have taken my eye off the ball and stopped paying proper attention to my blood whilst running around after everyone else 😱🫣 annoying because I have worked so hard and it will take weeks to fix what I have upset in days, so whilst disappointed in myself I promise I am getting back on it! I know someone in particular who reads these who will rightly be a little cross with me. 😬

So, remember – look after yourselves please you are just as important as everyone else πŸ₯°

So as I sit here with my portion of the world’s worst breakfast cereal 🀒 that is great for me but I swear is the same experience as eating gravel πŸ€”πŸ˜‚ I have made my list of things to do this weekend and I have 23 important emails on there – so please be patient if you are one of them. You should hear from me by the end of Monday, but lots being planned for schools and community groups.

Not had a great deal of time to shoot properly this week so thankful for the short rounds and my clingy band that at least keep the body thinking about how to shoot an arrow.

I have managed to log into good old teams for 3 different multi sports get together to discuss aims, issues and ways forward for grassroots sports and how we can achieve things together. One of the great things that came from the pandemic – the ability to come together virtually.

Enjoy your weekend, let me know how you are getting on, no matter if you are practising, competing, recovering and a big shoutout to my friends and family in Northants – busy weekend with the first round of the inter club and the first Caswell this weekend ❀️🏹
