Never, never easy making the final decision etc to go or not to go O/S . Flexibility is for me the first requirement  required for a successful lib & these days it's far easier, compared to the good old days as such to get it wright more times than not. Now any one looking for a job with no future & doesn't mind the odd knife in the back trick & sleepless nights to boot, because of all your effort as such just take up the liberation position for the enjoyment factor I suggest .

We are racing 118 miles wind in their faces

Not sure yet

were going to ashbourne for a sunday lib about 110 miles

Put back another 24 hours

sunday race for us

Got cancelled yesterday Moved us back to Newark For today lib before dinner I hope

3 out of 17 cocks, poor returns throughout club, just hope i get some back, no idea what has happened, 70mile should be all home in heart beat but first bird 1hour 50

Hope you get them all back pal ...we have just gone up at 12:30

ours were just liberated at 1pm ashbourne 110 miles

ours were brought back from Wetherby to Peterborough but the conveyer decided to bring them back, just picked them up from the club.
I’ve driven back from a wedding today from Derbyshire back to Essex , and it was a closed sky all the way, not one break in the cloud.
Convoyer made the right decision, there’s some horror stories on returns in other Feds that have gone up.

Weather in a nut shell Redrog   . Some one made a bad decision to release your birds I suggest .

A rather disappointing out come I would suggest Redrog on average unfortunately. Fair chance thou, you lost as good as birds as you got home type of thing I suspect.

yer right mate, but on to next week, weather supposed to be warming up again,

I have the strange feeling Jet many would happy with your returns etc. Short type season on average, if one starts sadly tipping them all out in  the short ones I suggest.

Hopefully we get a race this week..had two from four cancelled..never know it in all the years I have raced

decent forecast Ray should be ok,be 2 cuts wont it? memory.....
