Just heard a wee whisper this morning that the SHU may have found an alternative transport company that deliver all over the UK. This will certainly help us Scottish fanciers if it's true. Hopefully we'll hear something very soon. Colin.

Sounds good to me Richard. Great idea!!! Colin.

Scottish Central up at 9am from Ripon. Certainly a nice blue sky this side of Edinburgh. Good luck to everyone racing this weekend. Roundo.

Scottish Central are at Ripon.

Birds were liberated at 11.30 into a South wind. Lets hope for a good steady race. Colin.

Thanks for that Alf. Cheers, Colin.

I was wondering if any of the forum members have these perches in their lofts. These are the easy clean perches that come in sections of 3, 4, 5 & 6's. I'd be very interested to hear your thoughts on them please. Or does anyone know where you can purchase similar perches? Thanks, Colin.

Scottish Central at Tow Law........update at 9.30am

The sooner the better.........it's certainly the way forward for ETS. Roundo.

Neil, Thanks for your kind comments. I'm so glad they arrived with you safe and sound and really pleased you are happy with them. It's been really nice chatting with you on the phone and a pleasure dealing with you, it certainly makes a difference when dealing with fanciers like yourself.........honest, genuine and down to earth. I hope the birds will breed some prize winners for you and your dad. Speak to you soon, Colin. PS. Thanks again to PB for the use of the site to advertise the sale of these ybs........perhaps one or two still available??

Very sad news. My thoughts are with his family at this sad time. RIP
