Kenny, many thanks for letting me pick up my two lots ( 13 & 27) today i am more than delighted with them and as discussed i know that these would have not been for sale apart fron your unfortunate circumstances. Also if i had the room i would have bid for lot 24 & 29 they are absolute class Regards Darnaway

As a member of the forum who has been bidding on Mr Bald,s auction i certainly think it is not a shambles merely some confusion as to whether the 10 min rule is in place or not.

is there any particular area on this site that shows who has got the successful bids ?

I am sure Mr Bald will look at this and make the final decision

If the auction finished at 10 then going by the times of the bids it would look like that the last bid before 2200 hrs was mine at 2159 ? Regards Darnaway

If there is no Information given to members then surely it stands to reason that the Race controller is awaiting better weather conditions to hopefully liberate the youngsters and this delay at the race point would probably only happen for the shorter races where there is some scope to see if conditions improve. The job of race controller is difficult enough and as we know there is not a lot of people waiting to take the job but we still get the " experts" who make comments about whether birds should be liberated or not. Easy solution to that is for them to go along to the next Fed AGM and put there name forward to see if they can do a better job.

Great photo,s of The otterburn liberation site showing ideal conditions for liberating the bird, once again well done to the convoyer for delaying the liberation until he was happy with the weather.

Roland, can you expain your system in more detail if possible

Glasgow Fed at Otterburn , no word at present anyone near by could you advise what the weather is like.
