Thursday morning, 21 July - revised

The full lists from yesterday are still not on the NRA web site. However, I have gleaned a little bit more information.

The cut-off for the Queen's was 103.12. Hence, our four (Marion, Paton, Murray and Mullin) as mentioned yesterday are in the Second Stage.

Jim Paton is a four way tie for the Conan Doyle with 50.10. Tie shoot is to be arranged.

In the Grand Aggregate, Glyn Barnett still leads by 2 points, three points off. Jim Paton is 42nd at -15. Other Canadians are Alain Marion 96th, Serge Bissonnette 112th and Roger Mullin 196th. The last competition in the Grand, the Prince of Wales, is being fired this morning.

This afternoon, we fire the first of our International Matches, the Overseas.

Other details will be present as they become available.

Today is overcast, but perhaps a bit brighter than of late. Some showers are forecast, but the trend in the weather seems to be a little better.

News at 11:30 am, taken from Tony de Launay's Diary on the NRA web site: "First, Glyn Barnett of Old Greshams Rifle Establishment has just won the Grand Aggregate after scoring 75.10 in the Prince of Wales. No one can catch him. This is his second Gold Cross and his score of 702.92 is a new record for the eleven match course of fire beating Parag Patel's old record of 700. Second, it appears that a block of Queen's I cards failed to get computed yesterday and there may be changes to the 300 to shoot the second stage and the cut off score."

Dan Stanoev has been 'bounced' from St. George's II. Unfortunately, a protest from another shooter about an incorrect score was upheld, so Dan now stands in 301st place!

The missing Queen's I scores apparently include those of most of the left-handers. Nothing at all from yesterday has yet appeared on the NRA web site.
