i was in 2 races yesterday, one from Littlehampto on the south coast, 200 miles, the other from Bovingdon, 140 miles, vels of around 1320 ypm from 200 miles, the 140 milers were doing around 1450 ypm and almost 100% returns

hi broughcut, the birdseed will be fine and the union should have given the owner your phone no. whereabouts are you?, as there may be a fancier nearby who could take it off your hands

Hi broughcut, thanks for taking the time to bother about our little "athlete's of the sky", the unions keep a record of all the rings issued over the last 10 yr, anyone can contact them to find the owner of a ring, the unions dont like to give out owners details to finders without first contacting the owner because some unscrupulous fancier, on finding out he has one of the top fancier's birds in his possession, would not then follow up the repatriation of the bird and maybe would keep it himself and breed from it. Like your thinking though

Yes, we strike the club m.t. against the fed one on fri,before clock setting ...... then again on sat. before clock checking, any vairiation is noted, though with electronic clocks these days there's not much vairiation, can't see the point in it these days

Central Yorks Fed up at 8.45 from Newbury in a light nw wind good luck to all

lovely here in Selby, N/Yorks, sun is shining, plenty of high cloud with a light northerly wind, great racing day

Hi Debbie, got sorted out by a local fancier, isnt it great we can all help each other out on this site eh ? thanks again everyone and if i can help anyone out with non fancier strays around the Selby area i will do my best best regards Harry

thanks for the encouragement DJ, fingers crossed someone can help

hi Guys, anyone on from Litchfield area? i've had a bird reported by a none facier down there and wondered if any of you kind souls could help

good work tskyes, its a poor show from such a big club who keep blowing their trumpet that they are the best, we need this stuff earlier, even the web site is still showing all last seasons info with no news update at all

Cloudy and overcast here at Selby, very light cool N Wind

you got it right pigeonpete, it seems that with the current price of returning pigeons via amtrak your better off not stamping them it could turn out very expensive if you have a flyaway, the way i look at it is, if they are not stamped then i don't bother reporting because obviously their owners arn't bothered about getting them back, but come racing or training then they should wing stamp them as this is a rule if you fly with the RPRA

A GUY IN OUR CLUB TOLD US ONE TIME THAT HIS BIRD CAME TO WIN BUT LANDED IN THE FIELD IN FRONT OF HIS LOFT, HE CLIMBED THROUGH THE BARBED WIRE FENCE AND SHOOED THE BIRD UP WHICH PROMPTLY FLEW STRAIGHT IN THE SHED, HE THEN WENT TO GET BACK THROUGH THE FENCE TO CLOCK THE BIRD BUT GOT STUCK ON THE BARBED WIRE AND HAD TO SHOUT THIER LASS TO COME AND GET HIM UNTANGLED. PMSL !!!!!

CENTRAL YORKS FED ...... 10.30 BUCKINGHAM NE WIND...... GOOD LUCK ALL
