Last weeks first yb race from Thornton turned out to be a disaster according to a lot owe guys a was speaking to at the club room last night, and also many phone calls. First yb race from any liberation point isnt good for whatever reason, but these guys took a real hiding with very heavy losses, if the Federation are there this week, maybe the pigeon guys that are round about the Thornton/Fife area would be more than happy to visit there to hand ybs in they have collected. I would be happy to pick them up within a distance in Fife, and take them along to Thornton on Satuarday morning for the transporter to take back up the road. Its just a thought, can any one from the Aberdeen federation confirm if they are going back there this week, or are they moving further on with there race programme. If the decision is to move to another race point further down, just my opinion, i think you will be looking at heavy losses once again. So for the wealfare of the birds, the guys that make the decision, hope they think very carefull on what they decide. Dougie.
