lanarkshire fed libbed 3000 birds at kelso 11 oclock in a north wind good luck guys

burnbank sent six baskets about 180 birds to kelso i sent 43 yearlings and a x stock bird that was not producing first race for him good luck to all you guys

saturday looks fine to me

happy birthday colin

well big tommy has the means to move it good luck to him

if you need it you take it tommy im not desperate m8 was thinking of changing my stock loft just hate to see good wood go to waste so wire in

was thinking more of a new stock loft ovy we have a good club house m8 but if you can you pm me the post code and ill try and come out to have a look

thats a great offer ovy if they would fit in my van id be over for them m8 but they would be to wide

im saying it will be nothing to do with the weather if my own birds dont get home as ive done my bit as always cant speak for anyone else if mines go down it will be because there not good enough imo

at the end of the day we are all our own race controllers if you dont like it you dont send them lets face it we all knew the date of our first race like it or not if the first race was in january id make sure my birds were ready not talking about winning thats a bonus but i make sure they are fit enough to get home any that are not will not go it would make no difference if the racing started in june we all know some guys would still not be ready we all know its better with a bit of heat in the air but its the uk we live in and thats the way it is for all we just have to deal with it and i also dont like kelso as a race point lost some good pigeons there on perfect warm days but thats what was voted for so good luck to all racing this weekend

agree there will be big losses but it will mainly be because the birds are not fit enough as ive said before there homing pigeons but its up to the fancier to make sure there birds are fit and healthy enough to get home

will be nothing to to with the weather if they dont phil they have been prepared for it so its up to them if i thought i was taking a chance i would not send them

saturday

forty odd cem have two or three injured and a couple paired to old birds the rest will go

pick out your fittest birds ally and keep the rest at home m8 fit pigeons can handle the cold fine unfit birds do not and also hold back the fit ones imo

i have no problem with the weather almost all my yearlings will go as they are fit and ready the old birds will not be in a basket for a few weeks yet if your birds are fit weather should not be a problem its up to the fancier to make sure his birds are fit and ready to race ive done my part and made sure jim done his the guys who cant or dont train will be in trouble if the forcast stays the same imo

i was at coalburn to collect pallets george and saw a team going over heading for wishaw or newmains the wind would have cut you in two they dont need that at this time of year m8
