  1. I get Friday afternoons off, as we do extra hours during the week so we can all have a longer weekend break. If overtime is on for a Saturday then it still gives you time to get shopping done etc. We also have flexi working, so you can do extra hours during the week and take every other Friday off in full.(or when you want time off) Find it works well as most people do the same regular hours each week and it still allows me to plan the workload. Dave
  2. Durham Combine at Folkestone too., just got in from basketing.

  5. If there is any libs close by i would be happy to take photos, but due to work time is limited.
  6. Lanarkshire and Midlothian (hope i have spelt right) 8500-900 pigeons and 2500 pigeons? so i was told
  7. Just given the hen 48 hrs, it has either come a cropper or done a runner. I have a hen already lined up.
  8. Lost hen NEHU MDS2121 (03 bird) racing from Ware this Sunday, cock bird missing her badly.
  9. Durham Combine up @7:15 am from Ware Fresh Sw wind
  10. birds cleared after 10-15 mins, low broken cloud, but good visability. still about the same now with blue sky just creeping in.
  11. Yours have moved back to Otterburn, left Aycliffe at 12:55, have some pictures of the transporters and small 8 sec clip of Mid lothian lib. Dave
  12. Still low cloud, cold, should burn off if the sun can get through. Very slight North east wind (next to nothing)
  13. Where the release is " Aycliffe Vilage", next to junction 59 A1M , but it is classified as Newton Aycliffe for racing purposes.
  14. Aycliffe slightly misty too, hopefuly will burn off, low clouds, but bright.
  15. Is it defo going on from Aycliffe, as there are a few lads wanting t o go and watch the lib
  16. Best bet would be to ring NEHU head office as 2006 FUT rings were for a one off race last year, this year they race as yearlings. Unless its been transferred it will be from a north east club. You may report lost or stray birds to us by either Telephone: 0191 262 5440 Fax: 0191 262 5388 or email: lostbirds@nehu.co.uk
  17. I will pop down, and hopefully take some photos, hopefully the weather will be ok, can be a bit misty here first thing on a morning but if warm enough will burn off by then. Dave
  18. It is very tight at Witton, i wouldnt fancy it in an artic or a rigid, some nasty speed humps and twisty. If you are going to libing form Aycliffe i can pop down and have a look, if i can get my camera from the daughter i might even be able to take some photos. What time do you estimate a lib to be? Dave
  19. 18 hens and 14 cocks 4 hens too old(dad keeps them as they were good in the past) 1 cock resting due to flights that are damaged. Dave
  20. good velocity with the south wind, well done to your Dad Craig Dave
  21. 14 again, not sending hens yet, they need to lose weight and get some proper training. Flying from Newark (Durham Combine) Dave
  22. Do not know how much all the sales made, but i heard its in the region of 18 - 20 thousand for all three, + sales of rings. I think this year it is going to be a big payout. Dave
  23. Just been told £5800 made for the night.
