well done davie young putting the birds first hard for the workers but understandable with the forecast this is how it should be always imo

good move but sunday does not look a lot better for our first youngbird race just have to see how it pans out whether i send or not

thanks if i had the time i would

no i dont henrik but i do think that they think they are smarter than the weather forecasters and thats when they come a cropper or they are not getting the proper information they need to insure we get a good race throughout start middle and end of race which is not being done if the weather is not right hold them but a good start is paramount and it looks like most of the birds in these races did not get across the channel so someones not doing there job imo and im sure plenty guys on here agree time for a new race control team

channel racing has never been easy but we need men at the top that can get and read a weather forecast and when in doubt hold the birds regardless of cost this seasons national disasters have all been caused by human error imo no matter where we were racing from every bad race we have had has been forecast as just that so why did it happen yes its a hard and thankless job but there is no excuse when bad weather has been forecast and ignored

i also have pigeon lung ally all the advice above will help but my biggest problem was and still is birds in the car with wood shavings in the basket made it ten times as bad i changed to shredded paper and it made a big difference open up the front of your loft as much as you can with a good 4 inch gap along the back will really help to i had a count of 225 when i was 18 and just work with it as best i can thats all you can do or pack up good luck m8
