BEST PLACE FOR THE BIRDS IS IN THE LOFT.  IF THE WEATHER IS FORECAST TO BE BAD AS IT IS AGAIN THIS WEEK. I WOULD RATHER HAVE THE BIRDS AT HOME THAN STUCK IN A BASKET

You can only go on what the weather folks tell you Tam, and weather seems to be a female, changes its mind every other minute of the day.  ;D

 

Can't agree with marking in face of a bad forecast. Surely the best place for the birds is in their loft rather than in the transporter. Holdovers cost money, and there have been a few threads recently about problems with birds at home rising off the nest when the others are absent - even on a normal Thursday marking.

 

And 6 days in the basket then brought home, and holdovers to Mon, Tue recently is a repeat of the weekend a couple of years back where despite the weather forecast, orgs still marked. Only difference then was it was done with YBs.

 

AGREE 100% WITH UR FIRST PART BRUNO ;D ;D, BUT HOW MANY TIMES HAS THERE BEEN A BAD FORECAST AND THEN IT HAS TURNED OUT TO BE OKAY AND THEN THE BIRDS COULD HAVE HAD A RACE, THERE HAVE BEEN A FEW EXAMPLES IN LANARKSHIRE WHEN BIRDS WERE BASKETED AND THE TRANSPORTER NEVER LEFT LANARKSHIRE BECAUSE THE FORECAST WAS BAD, AND THEN THE SATURDAY WAS A GREAT DAY AND WE NEVER HAD A RACE , NOTHING WILL CONVINCE ME OTHER WISE THAT THE BIRDS HAVE TO BE BASKETED ON A FRIDAY AND SENT TO THE RACEPOINT AND IF THE WEATHER IS UNSUITABLE THEN U BRING THEM BACK A BIT TO A SUITABLE RACEPOINT, EVERYBODY HAS DIFFERENT OPINIONS ON THIS , MINE IS QUITE CLEAR, THE BIRDS ARE SENT

Think we are talking about different things Tam. Basketing on Friday and keeping  the transporter at home is nonsense, in my opinion.
