cheers ric ..they will be pushed away from Manchester with this wind but they gonna hit some bad weather en-route for sure

we got 5 out of 7 at the moment and first two birds were grooters a good oldstrain tuff as nails they came on a good line too so you never know the third bird was bred out of a stock pair I purchased off ray peel and she is our first yearling a buschaert she was a bit behind the first two but she is in the clock as she was entered in the yearling classic ...no mobs of pigeons about today ,well strung out

nowhere near it we was well behind the cards but so were most of the other members our club sec took 4 of the 5 first places he was well out in front but fair play to him...his wife comes back from holiday this week so that should put a spanner in his works   makes me laugh at the club as nobody is losing birds yet birdage is down to 175 from 290 after just 4 races and 19 members sending is down to 15 members   why not just say it as it is it's only a game ffs we have dropped 2 of our 9 hens in the 4 races but yet to race the 6 cocks ...the Scottish races are looming   

It sounds like everyone had a hard race over the weekend Daz, talking to our club sec before and are club race should have been from Wincanton on Saturday but they didnt set race until Sunday because of the weather.
theres always another weekend and another race mate.

Now O/S     let's not be to cynical (290 down to 175) here & 19 down to 15 flyers etc. Everyone one is just tuning them up I suspect ??? for later on as they say    . Strange as it may appear to some    the exact same thing happens down here also   .
