excellent result there, 2nd and 7th....also i see one at 40th, well done they are coming very well..........

Well done mate.

Cheers guys we are over the moon with the birds who remain on course for their main objective the Final from Ypres on September the 9th 2012.

Best of luck mate, hope they do you proud and of course your mate Ken.
Keep us informed mate.

Thanks Gaz, Ken Cardwell is well chuffed with the birds too we expected them to do well but 5 top 10s in 4 Hot spot races is Fantastic by anyones standards. Most of the birds we have sent to the Somerset one loft race are off or decended from the pair that bred Ken Cardwell the Ace bird and car winner in the Europa one loft race in 2004 or 2005.
The whole of the stock birds are multiple Fed winners etc and they are doing the business for Ken in club and fed again this season, in fact he won again last weekend.

That's great mate, well done Ken, he's one of those names you see in the results every week if not at the top he is always knocking on the door.
I'm sure a guy from Preston did well with his birds, a guy called Kenny Burns, I'll ask him next time I see him.
That's dedication for ya mate.
Fingers crossed for you both and well done Ken Cardwell.

Well done Spencer you must be in with a good chance of the ace pigeon with 001 good luck to you mate well done

Hi Ginger, No Ace pigeon finished today and I have 2 birds 001 and 014 that are around 7 or 8 minutes behind Martin and Watts and Lindium lofts for Acebird and maybe some others. If it were going on to the final then yes they would have a great shout but they were 13 mins behind before today and only pulled 6 or 7 mins back in the race today against the opposition but a fantastic effort from them.
The Final on the 9th September is 100 miles further with the Channel to cross so a different ball game for the birds that day I am happy that our birds will cross ok and your birds came well enough today as a team and they must have a great shout being Channel Island pigeons.
Good luck in the Final.

thanks mate we have 5 going out of our 7 so not bad at all
