Sincere thanks to Dave Barrie for collecting the Angus and Dundee strays from the stray centre on Sunday and dropping them off on his way up the road. He had a long day. Well done Dave!!

Any club base station can kill the race

you can only kill race on a club base station

You will need to get clock struck off before you can clear the race. Don't think you can synchronise clock with pc when there is a race still live

Thanks to all who have congratulated me on timing last night. I would like to give credit to the breeder, Paul Thomson of Forres (Blue Chequer Pied) We were drawn together in the Joe Murphy Young Bird exchange two years ago and this is one of three birds Paul gave me. You need a bit of luck in this game sometimes! On a less positive note as John Hood said the returns are terrible. I only have one from eight and there are some of my best pigeons missing. There were 33 birds timed at the Dundee clock station from around 300 entries. Returns for my club members as far as I know are 1/9, 5/18, 5/11, 0/6, 0/6, 0/6, 0/15, 0/6. Don't know the answer but we cant carry on like this or channel racing is finished. David Liddle, Forfar

Yes a disappointing entry except for Section C. My club (Forfar) has an entry of 80 pigeons plus another 6 non SNFC birds in the convoy. Hate to say it but I think Ypres is having a detrimental effect on the entry for this race.
