2 now 7.35 another hen.

Got a chec hen at 6.54, cant say she has tried she looks pretty fresh na aint lost much weight, but hay-ho i got one.[she can come home now!]

Well, back to the drawing board is as politely as i can put it.Still F/A from 15,Iknow there are excuses regarding the incredable heat but if some can make it I should at least got one. Good job am on my own today and the better half is back in Scotland or am sure she would be packing her bags lol. time to get the vino poured nd just get pi***d nd watch the footie.

Nothing here yet, my two buddies have them 1/10 at 2.03 nd 2/15 at 2.10. they are very scarce temp 96f and slight head wind.

Birds libbed 6.30am at Moncao 370ml, no wind and temp already hitting 84f in the shade. Once again no predictions as iv"e been wrong so many times and been caught out,[but!!!i think its gona be realy hard] sent 10cocks nd 5hens.

Clocked, 1.28-33-34-35-35-37-37-etc so far 23/25 a bit slower than expected today but was hearing the first 50ml or so was head wind. it was all yearlings bar 3 so am reasonably happy, 3 to go one long nd 2 short.

Birds libbed 10.am,no wind gonna be a scorcher 173 mile to me, sent 15cocks-10hens.Good luck to eveybody today especial those racing with the SNFC.

78F here nae wind, forcast same for nxt8wk lol but al just have tae put up with it.

A while ago when i was racing in Scotland our fed decided due to severe losses to seek transportation with a east flying federation.Myself and my partner were not keen on this and voted against, but by democratic vote east was carried and that was that[or so we thought]Our club wanted our old route [west] so seeked transport with Solway who kindley agreed,so who were we going to go with club or fed.We decided to send with both, 8 cocks with the club and the rest with the fed.The result was these 8 pigeons flyin on what we considered the natural route were app 100ypm faster every week regardless the conditions and were homing on a true line where-as the birds racing the east almost evey week came in the back door.As for losses they were about the same pro-rata, there are hawk scum everywhere but the east have10 times the pigeon traffic all flying in diffrent directions, got to take care of the problema yourself guys cause no one else cares. Over here the have a shootin season and everything is taken care of. Iwish everybody good racing for the rest of the season and especial good luck in what i regard the real races the SNFC.[iwasnt to clever at them myself but loved them nonetheless]

The racing is good Dell, but i feel i need quicker doos as the birds i brought over are good birds but just not sprinters. I believe the birds i need are fast sprint/middle birds and they would be the ideal for most of the long distance as well as the furthest we go at presente is app 450ml and majority of winds are up there *expletive removed*, yesterdays winner frae 440+ml was one of our best sprint guys doing 1745mpm who usualy struggles if the race is over 8hrs. [ps. have yous entered the olr this year?]

Soria 441ml, libbed 6.15 clocked 13.25-13.35-13.50-13.57-14.07-14.08-14.14-14.29, not at the races, birds in perfect condition but still 15mns behind the winners. Returns 13/15.
