Rpra One Loft 2020 Updates .

1500 entries this year ,i wonder how many get exercised at any one time ...surely he dont exercise 1500 at once ,it be like a total eclipse for the neighbours

i cant cope with 25 young birds out, never mind 1,500 .....

i know the ybs get me flapping to theres a few wires/obstacles about here for them to negotiate and on those first few flys when they dip in flight its a worry but touch wood

1500 is a lot to control but it would look impressive I no one member up north that would handle it ok

Half way there for what I saw etc David Half whizzing around other half sun baking on the roof type of thing .

Appears confident there will be some training.

Pigeons did not seem to go far from the loft.

Would prefer to see them high in the sky.

Must be a nightmare looking after so many.

Lets just hope for the best.

You know, I hear, see, the arguments of why can't we train, race etc. Many points thoughts with folks saying 'Why can't we have just four members in the room doing the marking etc.'.
Well obviously that would be very short lived and done. If ever. Further, I was speaking to a keen fisherman, a couple of doors away, whom told me, that they can't go fishing if is no one else it there on any waters. Even if 100's of yards away'. So what chance do we believe, in our case, any thesis could be allowed!

Further, many games played behind closed doors are still trying to no avail.

It is a banned right along the line. No up and downs, nor any corners in that line that will be permitted. For very good reason(s). Where does one draw the line?
Certainly not for our, or any sport.
Golly it would open the flood gates, and course desent every where. So, sorry to say lads, all and any such schemes and thoughts will never be allowed until very much later.

Nova Scotia Club.
Hello everyone in the club and elsewhere.Just thinking here that the club guys should be a least basket training your birds at this point..I am usually an early bird (no pun intended),but get yourself motivated.We have some new challenges this yr practicing covid 19 proticalls when shipping our birds.Nick Fan, has secured a good quantity of face masks for the club,which is great.Thank You Nic.As well we will have hand sanitizer on site as well.Thanks Carlyle Smith for hosting us once again..We will be practicing social distancing on site also.With only 3 people in the shipping area to load the birds into the shipping baskets at a safe distance as prescribed..The rest will have to wait outside or in their car.Your choice. I would like to have all your band list by June the 15th so i can enter all the data into the race program.We will also, one week before the June 27th start ,meet, and scan all e bands for your birds into the race program one week before the first race.So shipping night will go smoothly. Safety protocols will be in place as well for that event.Trailer fees due on June the 15th..I am looking forward to our new, in Province, race schedule this yr.Racing from Cape Breton.Due to Covid 19,we are staying in the Province of Nova Scotia.Normally we travel into New Brunswick and into Quebec.We will have 22 races between old birds and ybs .Its going to be a lot of fun as it has been so far.Good luck to all preparing your racers.I will send out an e mail close to the 15th of June to remind all of the trailer fee commitment.I am optomistic there will be no more restrictions due to covid 19,that could impede our race season.We will follow all guidelines as they are written

Theory as opposed to practice me thinks very different.

would have to agree I'm   Misty walk down any major street, go into any major supermarket & the whole theory bubble collapses in a heap for what I've seen here . Still wont stop the theory men thou saying all is well, as I have it all under control as my white board tells me so as such.

Much comes back to bite their bums. Ask trump. A world wide joke! But is gaining hand over fist in the popularity polls.
Gosh with dump the trump, Mop head buffoon, Putin in stirring , That French twit, and Merkle the Know all etc. no wonder the world is in such a state of a downwar spiral and getting worse by the minute. And

Not only the virus problem Daz, we have the probable problem of which country can gain most from the overall state the world finds itself in.

Probably China, not a lot worried how they obtain their aims and I dread to think what they may have in mind.

Russia could be their best or worst friend.

America I feel will become more and more susceptible to a China - Russia co-op.

However, we know the eventual out come, do we not ?.
