get well soon Andy

windy and wet in Ayrshire

It varies, some guys are really good a breaking birds. and only keep them in a day or two. others like to keep them a bit longer. I moved mine last July and tried my YB which had been flying at the old place out in 3 days half of them broke in a day or two the rest i have never seen again. the old birds were kept in till a week or so ago when I tried them and only lost 2. I know of a local fancier who let his out 1 day after moving to the other side of town and broke the majority very quickly. No easy answers m8.

A lot of sh8t, sure the rings are slightly smaller in diameter , but just how many birds do you anticipate will need the ring cut off, stop trying to frighten the guy, .The main problem will be if you leave it late to ring , other than that there will be very little problems.

too young to comment on the 50,s Lindsay but my houshold was like that in the 80.s.

Well done Aberdeen

Just as a wee footnote , on this hens 1st time at Rennes she arrived at 06.19am with 30+ English YB in tow from Silloth area. most were captured and returned to their owner who let them out at about 4 15 am.so she was well up at nightfall on a day when there were only a handfull on the night.

I know there were Commonwealth medals competed for in the past, a former clubmate of ours A&D Auld won gold for the highest velocity into Scotland on a given Saturday ,I think it would be in 1986.

why would it matter at this age

If despising her ever being is moronic then so be it.

Aye m8 its a joke not

A bill has been put to parliment to honour Thatcher, what do you think about it? As far as I am concerned she can rot in H**l.

Obviously I dont know your Feds buisness, but perhaps it is just convoying to the last 2 or 3 races, and are going with SNFC or simelar for convoying

I use Benzing , as do most of my fellow club members , although some are on Unikon , no problems. I find the Benzing easy to use, and any advice is easily sought from Jim Savage the Benzing agent.
