well done sandy

approx 1700 birds were libbed at brechin at 08.30 into a light s/w wind and clear skies, driver says they cleared immediately atb to all competing

WITH ALL DUE RESPECT GUYS I DID NOT ASK FOR MEMBERS OPINIONS ON THIS THREAD AS IT IS SOLELY FOR THE BRECHIN RACE AND I DONT WANT ANY LIBERATION POSTS TO BE LOST AMONG ALL THE OTHERS, CHEERS

due to potential rain coming in from the west , first message will be 8.30 am, driver will be instructing clubs of this on his journey tonight, please ensure that the message is passed on particulary for the shorter flying members.

north of scotland fed 35p for all races up to newark and then 50p or 60p for the longest , £25 fed fees

basketing for brechin is going ahead as normal 26 birds per crate, first message 09.00 on saturday. regarding next weeks race from cowdenbeath we are reviewing all options for a circa 100 mile race, previously we have found kirkcaldy,and thornton unsuitable and till now cowdenbeath has been a really good race point for us, it would seem that all feds in scotland had some pretty sh*tty racing last weekend and i dont believe that every lib suffered the same fate as we did last week. i will try to update along with the posting of the fed brechin result online monday/tuesday

North scotland Fed were at cowdenbeath it was aberdeen that were at thornton

Would still like to know what he did with the sixth one

well done j&j
