willy van nuil gretna 6.29.

bright breezy and sunny at the campsies.

last time we flew clermont with the snfc it was a great race with stacks of doos on the shift,here's hoping.good luck to all fanciers. :) :)

wee johnny had a picture taken by jim hannah at last years midland fed presentation of the blue cock and he is a cracker, 39th open alencon. 126th open alencon. 120th open alencon. 99th open reims. top doo good luck john. :) :) :)

well chris have raced in the scottish national flying club for 35 years and think your opening statement is totally untrue,great flyers in all areas,geography will always dictate but it never deters the real national fanciers,i think you are showing little respect to your fellow national clubmates. <_<

not sure if that was the reason chris. :mellow:

approx 120 birds at boness.

SCRATCHING MY HEAD BOB,WAS LOOKING AT THE TARBES NATIONAL RESULT AND IT WAS VERY HEAVY GOING.NOT SURE WHAT OR IF THERE IS AN ANSWER. :) :)

not sure if there is a reason for the terrible returns,history tends to repeat itself and every 5 or 6 years we tend to get a filleting at the longest race whatever the racepoint,although looking at the 3 or 4 years we went to TOURS on our own the returns were excellent considering the distance. :)

well done derek you must be chuffed,well done to billy graham from my adopted club uddingston,also well done to all fanciers who got birds home in what turned out a terrible race. :)

well done jim meikle,as davie says great record at the distance. :)

well done del,but you will be barred for next year. :D :D

many roads and all that alan. ;)

good luck to all in the morning,looks like it might be nice. :)

good alf they are there.

think it might just be wee novo 10. ;)

drizzle at the campsies. although getting brighter.

good luck to all fanciers racing from bourges,lets hope its a good one.

del tell chris he missed leige. :D

would make sense del but there are a few that cant.

good luck alf,would be nice to get a good finish to the old birds. :rolleyes:

positive thinking john which has paid off already ;)

important to get the mix right frank,think tradition will dictate that there will always be a 600 mile race,and yes there should be imo!!!!

no got the auld stagers gareth due to some bad luck with the training,back all guns blazing for clermont hopefully. :) :)

food for thought frank,think the main thinking on this thread is that most feel we have 1 or 2 races too many.
