According to my sources!

In 1980 Eddie Won the last channel race (Avaranches or Sartilly possibly).

He took 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 9th 12th & 13th Open, not bad going considering there was a 12 Bird limit on the Race.

As for feeding he used to use 'sweepings' from a Biscuit factory, which included amongst other things peanuts and chocolate chips!

Obviously this was just a supplement - don't know which tye of feed he used.

It was Avranches in 1980. Eddie never won Nantes.
