  1. Unikon ETS old and young for the saving on all the hassle with conventional clocks rubbers etc plus we got it for free courtesy of awards for all grant (thanks Walter )
  2. Mate o mine that i worked with rung the falcons and he said when studying them on race days he reckoned they had the one picked from the batch up to a mile away he was of the feeling first choice seemed to be reds and mealys but he said if the initial strike was not a success they took the easiest option thereafter. Another interesting point he said when the lanarkshire stopped initially racing this route some falcons stopped breeding at certain eeries because of food source (or lack of it )
  3. Your spot on steven some won't change cause there great uncle bulgaria flew frae there ,as bob dylan said times they are a changing
  4. Your welcome only pointing out the truth and trying to save yb's we found our worst races were sedburgh and leyland with yb's once we got clear of that area down to lymm had much much better racing and returns ,our management committee had proposed this year we race appleby or shap which is at the top of the hill then jump them straight to lymm but this lost the vote to another proposal to race the a1 route with both old and young good luck with your season
  5. Wouldn't even send the wife to sedburgh we half our convoy every time we went there even worse last year i swear if i live to be 100 will never send another doo to sedburgh ,controllers report two years ago stated (young birds )were targeted on liberation by peregrine falcons convoyer stated he had never seen them go so high convoy split in two ,one batch never made it ,they never get a chance to clear from sedburgh ,fantastic race point if we did not have a falcon problem but as it is lambs to the slaughter
  6. Hills were covered in snow yesterday morning was a white out driving to work not been much better today ,doing maintenance work on a fishing trawler not even the ducks are flying yet ,keep them wrapped up the edge taken off to many good birds at this time of year ,timed a 2yo from national last year only his second race first was week previous from 200 mls he had over 5000 behind him in the result take it those were the ones that were trained in the snow

    Snfc Longest Race

    Agree with you on that one would love to compete in the longest race but have not been able to for a few years now as it is a nightmare trying to get birds to survive to any decent age due to continual attacks
  23. I no this is of topic but what you are stating is 100% correct was speaking to a mate this week and he had tossed 35 hen birds from his race team in cumbria early morning last week and by three in the afternoon had only twelve return and some of those with peregrine injuries
  24. Good post steven ,
  25. Apparently Ancelotti had told cole to turn up ten minutes earlier than usual as he wanted to give him some shooting practice
