Guys,

Just thought i would put up this post relating to the first young bird training toss with the big trailer at Drumbrae today.

Arrived at Drumbrae at 10.05, when we arrived we were greeted with another couple of local fanciers from the Fife area, they brought there doos out there cars, we agreed that we would all go together, we had a bit of bunter before the doos went at 10.15.

There was in the region on between 700-750 young birds, well it was like a liberation, the doos went well, we didnt have to chase much out the trailer, (4) that was all, usually for the first toos there is more.

As far as we have heard from some of the guys that were at the first toss they had good returns, and a good toss, hopefully more to come, the doos were home around 40 mins from the trailer, the weather was fine, wind a little strong but it was good.

Good toss Dougie, got them all but took a while. Most seem to come back up from the east with many having to think a bit, which will do them good at this stage. Lets hope for more of the same.

Currently on holiday Doug, and training my team every day, so hopefully will catch the trailer next week good to see up to date reports on the training m8   What about putting up a programme and pickup times?

sapper,

The pick up points are mate, leaving kennoway just after 8 then onto leven to gilmours house, then around to your old mans hoose, then onto methilhill bowling club for around 8.45, then on the road, next week we will be at Soutra.

Really pleased at the way the tossing is going, good returns for all.  

Are you training the rest of the week/weekend. if so where?

They are going to hadington the morn as far as i am being told.
