There is a need for accuracy and control in several sports. There's a stationary target (concentric rings or electronic) in archery and in shooting rifles, pistols and air guns. The equipment nowadays is very technical. Shooters can be in a wheelchair or ambulant. They can be 10 metres, 25 metres or 50 metres from the target. Sometimes they have a support for their gun. Sometimes they lie on the ground (without sleeping!). Archers can use two sorts of bow and they can stand upright or sit in a wheelchair.

Mishaps come in threes, but I have had more than three disasters already. What is the problem today? Our daughter is ill and she can't collect her children. I must entertain them. We played hangman many times, and chess and cards. What do sick children like to eat? Perhaps a few grapes. But that was not a very good idea. Eleven o'clock, the lit...

Will I lose my right mind soon? What is next? The first boy was sick again half an hour before midnight, and the second boy was sick twelve hours later. Lots of washing. The washing machine worked non-stop for many hours.
