  1. There is no way i would have trained birds the day after racing, regardless of distance. Gotta let them build themselves up, also gotta mind races are won in the loft not the training basket, motivation is key at this time of the season. jmo!! Good luck for the rest of the season whatever you do.
  2. Still not a feather since tea time yesterday so still 11/15, last weeks 2bd club winner among them
  3. Belter of a winner Alan, well done.
  4. Good shout Tony
  5. Not a feather since tea time yesterday. 4 relatively experienced doos missing too, including the Ck that took 2nd club last week fae 564 birds. Here's hoping when i get home from work some of the 4 have worked in.
  6. Breeding from them just now would give you something to race in the old bird racing next year, albeit they would be latebreds and you will most likely lose the majority of them quite quickly. Any that survived would be good 2yr olds in 2016 though and ready for channel racing. Sitting tight and breeding in Dec/Jan would set you up nicely for the 2015 Yb races but that is more than a year away. Decision is yours to make depending on how eager you are to get racing. Atb whatever you decide. Cheers John.
  7. Well phone Liz and ask for a transfer, if she says naw threaten its life

    Bad Day

    Aye bad day right enough Craig, hope you get most if not All back....... Hate losing Yb's before i get the chance to race them.
  11. Timed at 13.01, no at the races this week. Had 8/15 by 13.38 and ended the day with 11/15. Took a liberty with a yearling hem and ave blown it cos she's no appeared. Good thing about down that route is ye get more turning up the next day so fingers are crossed for a couple more tomorrow.
  12. Its a big enough scunner losing a good racer, losing one that's breeding good racers as well is gutting. Sick for you and your Da John. Atb for the rest of the season mate.
  13. Am living in hope they will be up the road before i go out back shift Charlie
  14. The doos are going to Uttoxeter, lib EAP so don't be getting caught out. Good Luck and returns to all.
  15. Same boat for me Billy, Backshift Sat, Dayshift Sun so won't see them leaving or coming back :-( :-(
  16. Race marking for Uttoxeter 24/05/14 has been delayed 24hrs by the race controller. Now marking tomorrow for a Sunday race.
  17. Sounds painful so a take it aw back lmao
  18. Timesachangin Pedro, gawn are the days when wimen done whit they were telt, except the wan ave got lololol Ps. Good shout yer both rolled intae wan!!! Lolololol
  19. A tossed 2 doos separately fae Andrew Suckles place yesterday Davie, the Ck never came home until after 6.30 fae a 3.30 toss. Was talking to a guy last night who watches doos come down the valley and he says they are voluntarily coming out of batches of 100+ in size to take cover just before they reach your place. Think that quarry pair are doing a helluva damage the now. Ps. They 2 were tossed as they missed the last 2 races having been injured, the rest of my doos don't get tossed after they have had a race cos i don't like losing them training. Club results suffer in the first half of the season but pick up the second half which is when i want them right. Though in saying that i was 2nd on Saturday fae 564 birds and 3rd the week before from 500+ birds so they're a wee bit ahead this year.
  20. Aye they're everywhere Lindsay, nae mention of doos killed but i think we can assume there were a lot killed in this instance.
  21. A canny quite make ma mind up whether you're a Statler or a Waldorf, cantankerous auld gits the pair ay them
  22. Ridiculous a wee slipped disc stops ye cuttin the hedges aw ma sympathy is way yer poor wife, a canny imagine what she's sufferin listenin tae ye
  23. What keepin an auld eejit occupied cos he for got whit age he is?? Take some Laxatives, ye'll be right as rain in the mornin
  24. Well done Boab, that's looking like a handy doo ye have there, look after it and it'll reward ye.
