  1. Well done all Special mention for rab Hamilton and the Avonbrig lads
  2. yep,different class Hes timed the Blue cock that was 8th open last year,his cousin said to him a year or two back this bird will be the best they have ever bred.He may be right.Davie reckons hes around 5th.They've had a stiff race as well though under 20 reported on the night and only 4 in the North. Ye can count on one hand the number of birds that have been in the top 10 of the INFC Kings Cup twice.Looking like Davie has a third one,one of the others being the Blue cock timed tonights Grandmother-"Annie Mary"(4th and 8th) and another is Annie Mary's Grandmother-"the 25 Hen"(6th and 7th) Run out of superbatives really looking like thats their 16th top ten finish Kings Cup in 19 years
  3. This is a blue hen I had at Ypres Has the fancier provided contact details Wull??
  4. Well done all The Padfield family are something else.Not sure if the photo on elimar of their bird was after the race but it looks as fresh as a daisy
  5. Some great names Shows you the calibre of John Bosworth,30 years on and hes still at the top of the national results.I'd like to know how many national diplomas he has won??would be surprised if there are any past or present that have won more??

  8. 14/22 not had any since around 3 o'clock,will be going to shut up shortly and see if there are anymore home but think that could be it now.I'm more than happy with the ones that are left.Got 3 or 4 for Clermont then its onto the daft young birds
  9. Young bird-darkness vs early bred? Darkie with 8 or 9 nest flights or early bred with 8 or 9 adult fights which will win??

  11. Fingers crossed his doo gets a Silver award
  12. A special well done to my clubmate and one of the finest fanciers I have ever met,Davie Young,on extending his Ypres record which ranks amongst the best in the country
  13. We clocked 1735,1810,1911,1923,1943 and 2022 back from the clocks and there was under 40 birds this evening at the Boness station so its a much harder race than I first thought,cut out from civilisation wi no computer etc. up at the doos Well done all who timed and for those who haven't I hope they work in tomorrow.We have finished the night with 14 still to come so fingers crossed they aren't too far away

  18. He was up fer Ypres last year and unusally brought some luck wi him Think he was a safe distance I've seen first hand the effect Muttley has on doos trapping,he wasnae known as the shepard in Avonbrig for nothing
  19. Frank have you been drinking? I'll second that,great to see Jim Hannah back up after a quiet spell by his standards.I noticed John Houston's great performance as well Shhh,thats a secret
  20. I've lost count great to see him getting a turn,he has a fantastic record in that club over the last few years.I'm sure he'll be polishing up the old red hen for Lillers as we speak.I handle her most weeks at the club,some size of a hen-absolute belter!!
