somerset one race

been looking on the basketing lists, then the results of training.......cant see anything, unless im looking in the wrong place

same place as im lookin

just been looking on the training results for today, our birds isnt on so i presume its gone...........one thing i find very odd is that it seems as if the birds arnt back by the time the clock is turned off the birds are never heard of again, are all latecomers killed as one member said ? if so its a bit harsh and also something which i personally didnt know happened........

pm sent david

The late comers are not killed if they are late they will be on the next basketing list

ours hasnt been seen or heard of since the hotspot race, i find it unbeleivable that the other three dissapeared in equally strange circumstances too......surely these birds shouldnt have all been lost on simple training tosses?

just my opinion, what do i know im only a novice.

its a shame they have gone,not for the money point otf view just the interest,but never mind

sorry to hear your birds have been lost lads,cant be helped though i suppose.

always next year lads

so is it confirmed then lads,your out of the competition.

mick.

yep, all out..............birds sent just not up to the task required

We will have to try again next year, who wants to breed them

its all a game of luck, we could be 2011 champions

im willing to breed two pairs of barkers if members would like me to or two pairs of Jan Aardens Phil Fishlock lines from wales

I think we should donate a bird each those who want to donate, and not just one loft giving 3 birds...I will breed 1 if we can do this.
May be we can have 6 birds or more, then more can come in to the syndicate, however not too many other wise we will need more than 1 syndicate.
By the way Mark, you exchange bird is home again from 200 miles, but thats me for this year he will go next year now thanks.

hi mark, whe you say your birds just wernt up to the task required i find that hard to swallow......as we all know your birds are good enough to win a national section and open, plus many other positions in club and fed etc...............so something else went wrong i feel, dont ask me wht as i dont know but i do not beleive your birds arnt up to the job

re martyns suggestion that all members who want to join a syndicate next year breed one bird each, this sounds a good idea to me...........and if we get quite a few wanting to join maybe we should have two syndicate groups

well defo put me down for it

what with this suggestion and kev d suggestion well be involved in more syndicates than we can cope with...........

if members were to go along with martyns idea would the oneloft they entered be the same somerset oneloft or a different one ?

i dont mind what ever everyone decides on as long as its all on the same thing david

think it will need disccussing more rene, because as we have seen in the past things tend to get forgotten about after a couple of days..........we`ll have all winter to sort it out anyway.

yes mate for sure

maybe well have our shows again through the winter like last year...............

yes mate probly do one on mine again if theres interest lol

yes rene, its worth doing as it was quite popular last year......if i was you id do it again also, i`ll enter this year

av to see ow many member can be bothersefd to join in first but defo be nice to do again i might even do a prize for it this time

i just put the winner of each class down the side on the home page, then we had an overall winner of winners which was won by ians bird................

no i know we have good birds but the ones sent were the wrong ones (if you know what i mean), we all breed 50+ youngsters to try and get a dozen keepers they are not all good ones

ie if luck was with us we could of sent our little hen 87, who did nothing in the first 3 races but was 1st club 1st fed Exeter 7th August, and then 1st club provisionally 6th fed Yelverton on the 15th August
