I would say the only race that was totally dominated by the east is the young bird national, however if you look last year the 2nd pigeon in region d and the 1st pigeon in the west section were timed 45 mins apart flying 4 miles from one end of Falkirk to the other.
You keep barking on about how hard it is in the west but if you look at channel races last year the west done pretty well. 8 open Ypres, 24 open, alencon, 8 open niort and 38 open clermont. I don't see what's wrong with those results.
Tam in my opinion is one o the best allrounders in Scotland if not the best. As for nationals when he sends he almost always times in and never to far away. If he was racing in England he'd be hot topic.
Yeh quite good order the only thing wrong wi it is you would need to replace a bit o Perspex on the roof. I would try n put a picture up but it beyond me how to do it
