  1. Up North Combine still hoping to go ahead on the 17th April. The Avian flu has went from medium to low risk so heres hoping it goes to zero risk soon.

     

    Yip..... RPRA meeting DEFRA 9th of April hopefully good news comes from that...which would allow Scottish feds to race 26th onwards so guessing 1st of May....and hopefully the EU situation is sorted for the channel enthusiasts by the time our programme gets there...issue for some of the south boys they ain't gonny get the distance on the pigeons before they are allowed in France for the big internationals etc

  2. Copied

    Important Update:

    The very recent update from the RPRA sent to the BICC and many many others in the Fancy, has clearly caused both awareness of the current European Law concerning movement of all birds within the EU, and considerable debate and concern amongst the pigeon racing community, as to whether English clubs will, or will not, be allowed to race from France and Spain in 2021. The RPRA with whom we have been in discussion are confident and supportive and consequently the BICC wishes to advise both their members and the wider racing community at large, that we intend to continue with our cross-Channel program commencing with the first race from Falaise on May 1st. The BICC would like to thank Ian Evans and the RPRA for all the hard work being put in.

  3. they will get slaughtered way the local peregrines still won't stop our bird's different heights and routes the birds will take. your ok way just trainers away

     

    Said tht to my mate in Essex...said you think you have a percy problem wait to you lib doos in numbers up here

     

    Tommy with recent updates the clock might be set for kelso 🤣

     

    Used to have some good stiff races from GUERNSEY.

     

    Good shout

  4. birds clash at the race points when feds don't give each other enuff time between libs when racing home they would be at different heights due tae the birds facing different winds

     

    Wait tae 20k bicc doos are libbing at strathy park 🤣

  5. and think the east is just as bad if not worse than the west ever was Derek Bop go where the food source is most abundant m8 but hopefully it will get sorted out before National time

     

    The bigger issue isn't whether its sorted for June its what happens with the English guys who are expecting to race from France in a months time...decisions will be made and if they decide to go north decisions and plans need to be put in place

     

    Dont think it will matter as this seems to bean EU rule so Belgium ets will be the same

     

    Yip

  6. The problem in my opinion is if we dont get across the water we will have massive English convoys flying the north road. Convoys clashing along the way is inevitable. Do we go down the west coast to avoid? Scary times!!

     

    Yeah we will be sitting waiting until 10am as per the ridiculous rule then we will need to wait until 50k pigeons get libbed and head south and don't cross paths....controllers nightmare

  7. Although regarding SHU and RPRA advice I don't know why we can only race in Scotland ...plenty of businesses are running up and down the country and feds are businesses at the end of the day

     

     

    Be racing regardless jst might be 20 kelsos in a row 🤣
