Ayrshire Chris Posted March 25, 2023 Report Share Posted March 25, 2023 Lots of cars parked , bit early in the day for dogging😉, I suppose they are using clay pigeon shooting as a cover story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kalifire Posted March 25, 2023 Report Share Posted March 25, 2023 I remember being surprised at how close to the festival they scheduled a shooting last year. It was within two weeks, iirc. Definitely during peak construction period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
