Well I don't blame myself. When I send my birds to a race I entrust them to the care of the race controller and the convoyer and trust that they will make their decisions based totally on the birds welfare.
Well it is obvious on this occassion that was not the case. Some say the decision to lib was based on lack of money to pay the convoyers to stay up there any longer.

True M8 ... the Lib / Controllers should have used their magic wand... Golly how else do they expect to look after you.
There are still only three in our Fed! But I CHOSE to send knowing full well what the wesather was going to be like! My fault, I wanted them to have a stiff hard distance race to sort out what is what! Guess they certainly got that! Am 10 brilliant bred birds down! Mine, like everyone elses' fault who sent, no two ways about that!
Golly they wouldn't have been up till next week! Or brought back Friday! Isn't Hindsight a brilliant thing eh!

I sent with Leicester fed to thurso last saturday. Only got one back. Dont think many people have got any.
