    My Husband is a great sports fan; one of his favorite pass times at home is Clay Target Shooting. I never dreamed Barbados would have
    A clay target club but on arrival my husband was very quick to discover Kendal Sporting
    I though well I have lost my Husband for a few days which was not altogether bad, however I was encouraged by another couple staying at the hotel with us to take a trip up to Kendal myself so I decided I would be a good sport and go along.

    On arriving at Kendal I was very impressed the Club was more like a mini Country Club and the scenery out in the middle of the Country was beautiful. We where very fortunate to meet Richard Bradshaw one of the directors of the Club he was very helpful and after a few hours of lying by the pool he encourage me to learn the sport that had long been a favorite of my husbands.

    Richard was a great instructor and gave me a thorough education on the correct way to handle a rifle and a pistol. I was very pleased with all that I learnt. Before this experience I was nervous about rifles and pistols but thanks to my new education from Kendal Sporting I am now a lot more confident that faced with one in a negative situation I would be able to react. I also think I may start to join my Husband on occasion at his local club.

    On completing my education my Husband and I had a fantastic lunch at the Club and watched a football match on the big screen by the bar. It was a wonderful day one of three we spent at the facility. The night before we returned home we made one last visit to Kendal for a relaxing dinner, and to say good bye and see you next time to some new friends. Very Happy

    hi,
    I have too been to Barbados in the South and it was a little busy. The North and North West areas of the Island are much more relaxed and quiet.
    My friend got married in Jamaica and she said that they got pestered by the locals the whole time they were there trying to sell them things. I had this a bit too in Barbados but not really in Antigua.

    Barbados is a coral island, pushed out of sea by volcanic activity in a far away time. On the West Coast of Barbados, coral shore beaches of fine white sand stretch along a blue-green sea.
