Henry I proclaimed that an archer would be absolved of murder, if he killed a man during archery practise, but only if he had first shouted "Fast" ( meaning stand fast - or in modern parlance to stay still ) as a warning to anyone straying nearby.
Today, we stop the shooting by shouting Fast to the archers instead of to the wandering public.

It was a Thursday evening so it was BBQ night. The BBQ had its spring clean and the protective layer of fat has been removed and it fired up first time. Even the sun was shining.
