A WEAVER Vale MP proved he was a hot shot during a shooting day out in Frodsham.

MP Graham Evans joined members of the British Association for Shooting and Conservation at Catton Hall, Bradley Lane, Frodsham.

Mr Evans enjoyed a lesson in shooting clay pigeons under the instruction of coach Simon Sutton.

Mr Evans said: “Clay pigeon shooting is a very popular countryside sport here in Cheshire so it was great to give it a try.

“According to the coach I was a ‘natural’ but I suspect he was just humouring me.”
