Timed yearling that's had Maidstone 12hrs ,on result from Ypres and now another 13 and 1/2 hrs on wing from Clermont. Not bad from 2 GParents winning Tours and a 3rd GP with a Gold Award all with SNFC and the 4 GP winning Central Combine Sartilly!!. John B

John, Just received the replacements by post. hanks very much , will give them a try with the tips you have supplied. thanks again John Baillie Loanhead

John, Still waiting on the return of phone calls / emails about the faulty stb ink ribbons!!!! John Baillie

Frank, I must agree with all you have said, but these days as in a previous post states we are in the minority group I would imagine of members of the SNFC which would prefer distances of 500-600 mls for all our racing as in the 70's to early 90's to the central belt. Was it not the late Reverend Sam Ovens when president who wanted to have SNFC take over all races over 250 mls -600 mls and have a race every 2nd week. John B

Ian, That is not correct. I proposed the race program, because the only difference between the 2 proposed programmes was Billericay/Buckingham. I suggested to change my programme to Buckingham instead off Billericay. This was shot down in flames immediately I had said it by the members present at the meeting. John B

Surprised the management committee did not change the proposed date of Ypres to meet with their DEFEATED MANAGEMENT PROPOSAL at the AGM for the race programme. Yes I think commonsence should have been to go to a race point close to Billericay. John B

Hope this is not true!! Only 280 mls into the Lothians for an inland Old Bird National. Richard Combe knocked this back immediately when it was mentioned at the AGM. Should be Maidstone,same line of flight as Billericay! John B
