Delboy Posted October 14, 2018 Author Report Posted October 14, 2018 Remember folks, 1st November is the last day for entry.Same as last year, no entries whatsoever after this date.
Happyflyer Posted October 15, 2018 Report Posted October 15, 2018 Is bonnybridge the only marking place
Delboy Posted October 15, 2018 Author Report Posted October 15, 2018 Is bonnybridge the only marking place Yes, security is paramount here. A lot of money to be won and usually not a lot of pigeons entered.
aye ready Posted October 16, 2018 Report Posted October 16, 2018 Del I would presume that if you pay for 5 entries upfront but only say enter 3 then the additional entry money would be returned 🤔
Delboy Posted October 16, 2018 Author Report Posted October 16, 2018 Del I would presume that if you pay for 5 entries upfront but only say enter 3 then the additional entry money would be returned 🤔 Definitely not Martin, the money taken in guarantees the prize money and pays for thr transporter/convoyer/premises etc. Remember, 8 folk paid last year and then didnt send, this has to be the way or everybody could say they are going, pay for the birds and then not want to go because its snowing or something and want their money back. This is the reason the money has to be in early, to pay things and guarantee the prize money.

I reckon we need 30 folk entering to make it worthwhile and the same as last year. Edited October 28, 2018 by Delboy
