Not just your birds think it's going to be tough for all birds tomorrow , lots of rain low cloud and mist forecast .

Big willie gass from inchinan has his loft under the flight path for Glasgow prob around 500 yards from end of runway and I'm sure there has never been any probs ,think this would be race birds on there way and just happens to be right over Heathrow , I train mine from Hillingdon which is around 10/12 miles to me and only a mile or so from Glasgow airport ,there's guys who fly in Renfrew Johnstone linwood Paisley who have large teams of youngsters who I would bet fly over the airport on occasions . Never any probs . So IMHO I think we will find it will be race birds on there way home ,remember it's Saturday ??????

Your put in sections by what fed you fly in ,but as some say fanciers move Feds for what ever reason ,so it's at snfc committee descretion what Sections those are put in ,I know the snrpc made a rule that because of all the so called moving around to suit started ,that you stay in the same section you were in prior to 2004 ,unless you move your loft then the committee puts you in relevant section .

Real nice guy as well alan . Looks like a wee batch then a gap of an hour then a wee run of birds .

Good luck to all competing today .and hope it's a great race ,special mention to big Gareth hope you Get a cracker after all the crap you've had to endure . None away from here so might pay someone a visit later to watch .

Wee matts bird in 77th position . a wee bit off the pace ,still it's home and on result.

My wee mate Matt Luke has one in final ,well he bred it ,flying In some schools name . It's been doing quite well winning a couple o quid.

It was very far up pal couldn't make out the colour ,after looking up Hawks I thought it might have been an osprey by the shape of the wings , but who knows what it was went to get my binoculars was around 10/15 seconds and it was gone out of sight , but the gulls were still circling .

Seen one here last week Michael , much bigger than the seagulls that were herrassing it ,I was thinking like an osprey ??.??

Sorry John just noticed ,done now .

I did say some good birds ,but I am right about the others . I'm now 6/6 my main fancy home with tall on marks all over .lucky escape for her .

The only thing I will say about comeback races is they are full of she ite in the baskets , latebreds bird returned in boxes , birds that have been hawked ,birds been lost and turned up weeks later u name it and some good birds ,then we complain about bad racing eh ????.
