Well done Gary, yer back!!! ;)

Well done to Pat McLaughlin winning 17th Open with a hen bred from a cock and hen bred by me. Both bred from my 2nd Open Reims when paired to 2 hens.

Well done mate keep up the good work. I sent 5 and timed 5. Have sent 16 cocks across the channel this season and have 14 still in the loft. Well satisfied as half are yearlings. Can't wait till next season to try and improve

Now the old bird season is over, how do the members evaluate their season, performance,losses etc?

Well Done Richard

D McDonald Dalbeattie 09.18

If the Yorkshire lads haven't timed in plenty by now, then I would suggest the convoy didn't get into the UK yesterday.

Here's hoping Brian, However just getting reminded why I never usually send to the longest race. Nae doos hame and hate the waiting 2nd day :(

Well Done, thats just over 150 miles from here, which means 22:15-22:30 to be on a par.

Any birds into GYA land yet?

half past 10 tonight.

No had any losses yet. Basket training at the moment(3 days) dubbed up. Will start them off after the Clermont doos are basketted.

Sending 6 cocks, 4 timed from Reims, 1 timed from Ypres and a yearling timed from Eastbourne. Good Luck to all.

Weather conditions at Bourges are poor. Expected to improve. Further update at 10am.

I could understand if it was this coming Monday, they could've been at T in the Park :lol:

Any word on lib?

:lol:

Guys, It's going to be nigh on impossible to get a lib from the middle of France to the North of Scotland without getting some kind of adverse weather (showers) along parts of the route. The most important part is getting them out of France and over the channel, then trusting timing and luck. Good luck to all ;)

George, my guess was 236, not far out.

Sent 2. What was the total birdage???

Agree Andy, Also Ideal for the Eastbourne doos to go back

John, Everythings for sale at the right price ;)

Derek, Ypres yearling Nat same time 2 weeks after Eastbourne. Agree with the rest, same dates.

Got to agree Alec, although I did send 2, both triers but not really into 2 day racing. I prefer it to be all over on the day!

Behind my lofts is the main Edin- Glas railway line and next to them is the main Fife Lines. Ideal hunting for the sparrowhawks, foxes,cats rats and everything else but you have to be on top of everything 24/7.
