tyson

well done all that have timed from a stiff race I have 0/22 probably not good enough

thanks for the info I normally use ivermectin spot on the back off the neck never see any crawlies on birds for months but it is time consuming but seems to do the trick

what dosage did you use??

this is what happens when people put up race points and dont know where they are

look at tonyc post again essex lib 8.15 lanarkshire 8.45

secretary for edinburgh prem R CAIRNS 0131 477 3038

what were the feds that were supposidly headed south??

midlothian fed newark lib 7.00am LT SSW WIND

midlothian fed bubwith lib 6.00am Lt w.s.w wind

also it is one of the hazards of flying the east route

gary im afraid we cant wait all day on every fed north of us we would be there all day its just a case of take your chances and hope for the best

dunbar at least 20mls east of arniston

you should have stayed on the west route

gary the name of the game is patience as for the n.r.c.c at dunbar they are over 100mls away

midlothian fed 7.15am thirsk LT S WIND

midlothian fed 9.00am witton castle Lt E.N.E wind

my own opinion on this is my own birds have just finished rearing and are not 100% race fit and I think to send them to face a cold n.east wind could be asking for trouble as it is not going to be alight wind looking at around 10/15 ml an hour with gusts of 25 ml an hour jmo

in your post yesterday at 22.06pm

well said stb cruilty

hi all is it today lanarkshire is holding there agm

as far as im concerned there is no middle route you are either east or west of the pennines jmo

the north east is like the bermuda triangle of britain jmo

if you read more into all the different technology you will find that they can detect flocks of birds 8 mile from airports they are olso using bird strike deterants at wind farms to stop birds striking the blades and damageing them

have a look at this site and it will give you an idea of what they are useing to avoid bird strikes www.detect-inc.com

in that area you have newcastle airport teeside airport r.a.f.boulmer which I beleive interferes with there homing ability what I have noticed if we get east in the wind we dont seem to have the same problem as with west in the wind it tends to push the birds more over into the newcastle area jmo
