Peterborough North Road were at Aycliffe last week - so should imagine this week would be further North - but can't help with site or time - sorry

[REDCHEQHEN]

I've got a Nottingham stray in - they were libbed at Whitley Bay at 7.45am (but are not a big fed)

 

and also another North Road fed were libbed at Scotch Corner - but not until late ( around 11.45)

 

If this is any help

[Guest bigda]

thanks frank  i wonder what sort of race those lads had as they sat 15 north of us at ripon

[frank-123]

talking with someone today his brother had 80 away 60 home  

sure ib will update you on the north west fed

i was more thinking the english-welsh fed racing south into our area that our birds would have been dragged away south

birds have been reported in cumbria,cheshire yorkshire wigan so they never went very far from wetherby

begining to think clashing might not be the problem more like did they leave wetherby area

 

because since last night on this site and on pigeonchat i have not had one reply saying english/welsh feds struggled or had lots of scots birds in with there's

I don't think NW liberation would have any bearing on Lanarkshire, we were North West of you in a South West wind. What puzzles me is how your birds got West of the Penines in a Westerly wind, and that also appears to have happened a good deal further south than Cumbria, judging by the West Coast locations given in Frank1-2-3's later post. Almost as if the birds headed due West from racepoint?

 

North West Fed libbed 0800 at Ripon , 157 miles to me. Birds took longer than expected, with big gaps between them, and in our club most returns were fairly poor at clock meeting [two hours after your first pigeon is timed] I'd 2/8 then.
