Worse case scenario is east winds accompanied by low unbroken cloud, if that's what's forecast leave them out.

Cant say I have, eyebrows would be raised if it did happen.

So whats the ruling then Vic?

Again domestic rules cover, I think ours is up until 10pm on last day of race.

Domestic rules cover. Its the norm that races are categorised, 1 day, 2 day, 3 day, 4 day depending on distance. Guess the bottom line is when the master timer is opened..... race over!

If I adsence I wouldn't race pigeons :)

Well done, hope its the first of many.

Not a cloud in the sky, chilly s/w wind

I see the bath as a tool, a warm bath for two things a cold bath for three others.

doo-u ;D

I remember reading an article (think by Patrick Bros. not 100% sure) where they run copper wire around their shed and earthed it, think they called it a Faraday cage, this apparently helps to stop losing young'uns of the loft.

Well done me old cocker

Are the winds getting stronger or your pigeons getting quicker :o Congats on your result

If mine exercised throughout the week for a full hour at a time, come Saturday I’ll be behind (sprint races, 1 night in the basket)

Well done Sue

I'll give you a ring at 10:08 just as your about to time in ;D ;D have a good'un

Broken cloud, low cloud moving from the north, high cloud moving n/westerly

I tried it Vic and it made no difference at all. No matter how much they're fed if they've got their hen on their mind they're not going to rake the skies. I believe cutting back how much they see their hen is the answer to how long they fly. Fill their pots up on Sunday & Monday and they'll still not want to venture far from the loft whilst their hen is still fresh in their memory. I'm not saying I advocate this, on the contrary I keep them short at the beginning of the week and use this to my advantage.

You want to go easy on them Brussels sprouts ;D ;D
