First Race......

9th April depending on weather, bird flue, but at least we got a target to aim for. Need to find time to get stuck in now! Not plenty hours in a day.

Good to have a gleam of light barnie.

To me time has flown since racing last year.

Will be interesting to see how things go.

Must be hard working and racing.

Regards.

Be bit easier later in the month when clocks go forward Misty, an extra hour after work helps a lot. Been flying the skies out today. Ready for the basket now.

our clubs 1st race is on 23rd april .......club breeder buyer 3rd april, a bit early for me, a week later would have been better

Can you not just put the ring numbers in David, buyer get the birds when ready?

yes colin, thats what they normally do, but i think its better if they can see what they are actually buying, what the birds like and what droppings are like etc .

i think they tend to make a better price if the bird can be seen, instead of buying blind .

go get um colin ....good luck with the prep and the 1st race itself

Your health first barnie, you have been wating far too long and you will be better in health to look after family and pigeons'

As oldstrain says, plenty more races to look forward to and you may enjoy them better if in better health.

Goes without saying, hope everything goes well.

Regards.
