Jack Adams told us this 30 years ago that they followed the M6 into Scotland

What we need is the likes of John Rumney,Bob McKie and Anderson & son fron the UNC area to explain how they do it. Speaking a few times with John Rumney it would shock the majority of fanciers how he gets his birds ready for these BICC races. His birds will be at Falaise at the end of April 17! Approx 420 mls ,most of us are at only 100mls. We also need to have a look at the procedures Of the likes of John Ellis and the top guys in the North Section of the SNFC. These guys are timing in regular at approx 700mls.

Brian Denney and Dave Implett 748mls on the day from Tarbes a number of years ago.

Derek, That's why some of us are putting GB rings on our young birds to have a try in few years time. Richard & Jamie Combe are already flying with the BICC.know of a few folk thinking down the same lines

Ian, can you send me a questionnaire please. 1st time I've had it in 6 years Sent by PM Thanks John

Leeds birds are doing a mile a minute from Buckingham today

831 approx from Musselburgh

Hi, I moved 10 miles east. Lost a lot settling,was not able to leave a loft/hut at old place and the cats killed them for fun. Started breaking them on their second nest in April 15'. Raced them all to coast and my old cock scored from Alencon 102nd Open SNFC.This year these same broken birds have taken,32nd Reims,22nd and 37th Open Ancencis with the SNFC.

Can beat that,found yearling sitting on aviary at 04.16. Definitely was not there at 23.00 hrs last night. 3rd national ticket this year with it

Colin, GB13S81053 D/pied Cock. Flew Maidstone 2014,12 hrs on wing,back to Ypres and scored Open prize and then back to Clermont to be 56th Open. Did not race him last year as did not settle him to May 2015 to new loft location, 10 east of old loft.All the best to everyone competing. John b
