At Otterburn with the Fife fed, sent 10 and have 9 home, looking for the other one to turn up, or even in the morning, pleased with them as last week was a nightmare for me, when i phoned the wife she saw the club winner coming to our lofts clapping, then went over to the guy at the back of me.

sent 22 birds got 22 back and won 3rd club only beaten by a total of 40 seconds by a man who sent 40 odd birds and has topped the WDA twice so cracking race for me.

Mind you the weather was very bad in the west of the country my parents went to Lowther near Penrith for the show which was cancelled and it was hoying down all the way up that side and my dad saw batches of birds flying through it.

Haven't lost a bird yet from three races. Won the first race was just say pipped to 3 and 4 club by a few seconds on the second race and chalked this one having a really good first full season. No money to go drinking cause of the deisel cost like but thats life for you.

Tommy, are you speaking for yourself? Why is it your club had dropped birdage, the federation ha dropped birdage.  Spoke ti fanciers today, 1 has 10/23 another 1 has 16/26 another 16/30, if that is good racing I don't know what is.  P.S. I see you have only 8 away, why is this are you keeping them for the shows.
