Tommy That depends on what's on the agenda, the decision to go west has been made and I think this would have to adhered too, however I think if a meeting were called then the races between June 3rd and 24th could be rearranged sensibly, although this also wouldn't suit every individual either, anyway if I have to fly this programme I will make my own choice on where / which races my doos go to You not looking for a transporter anymore ?

Tam Really sorry to hear this, hope all goes well for you and Liz with the best possible outcome All the best Davie

Jim Hope somebody arranges a further meeting because as things stand neither the supporters or those against this programme are happy with what they got, I'm saying this with the benifit of hindsight but really this proposal should have been thrown out e.g. Wrong dates for SNFC races, no RPRA liberation site codes for any of the races, and 5 or 6 race points that really don't actually exist, the guys who voted this in really missed the boat when they voted against race by race where if they had went with this they could have got exactly what they wanted in the first place

John you're spot on'. If they are national minded that's where there birds will go not with the fed', if this programme stands also consider this for anyone who wants to have a go with both fed and Nat June 3rd fed Leicester - Nat Buckingham June 10th fed Buckingham June 17 fed Leyland - Nat Bedhampton June 24 fed Littlehampton That's four races in three weeks all over 300mls plus two others, not many lofts will handle this and keep doos for the channel races still to come ( from memory think I've got this right ) agree some common sense needs to be applied

Tae go wae doddom

Couldn't agree with you more mate' I didn't write my posts in support of going the west route as I'm dead against it, just demonstrating why this has been proposed and pushed through by the Airdrie club, but they've made a complete arrs of it and the whole fed will now have to take the consequences of losses to BOP and the financial losses in birdage due to not going with the SNFC to inland nats, and there will be load of members looking to jump ship so that they can fly an easterly route race programme

Have a look at the measurements from the east and west route race points into north Lanarkshire and then work it for yourself, the birds are still likely to dog leg into the Fed, tells its own story

George that's wrong' Snfc Gold cup race is June 30th' if this programme stands Fed will be at Penrith on Sat July 1st

Your absolutely correct John, I also think the Fed will only need a transit Van to get to Buckingham and Bedhampton' if brains were dynamite they couldnae blaw ther nose, certainly didn't pan out how I thought would

Correct John but the first two Snfc dates on this programme are wrong and will actually be flown a week earlier which means on June 3rd Fed will be at Leicester and Nat will be at Buckingham, it also means that on June 17th Fed will have a comeback race from Leyland and Nat will be at Bedhamton, in line with this it also means that Fed will be at Buckingham on June 10th and Bedhampton on June 24th on their own which for me is mental, as I said earlier a real *expletive removed* up

Just back from the meeting' what a *expletive removed* up

Cheers Jim

Assume the meeting starts at 12:00 noon ??

Nothing to worry about especially from a yearling

Jimmy Generally speaking I agree with you and would bin these eggs but I do know of one very good local bird that was hatched from a very small budgie sized egg, in fact it was called the budgie due to its small size

Happy birthday Jock , still going strong at 80, hope I'm still knocking about the doos at that age
