lanarkshire fed (disaster)

[Henrik]

I would have thought Bart that if Midlothian convoyer had told Bobby Carruthers who is ultra cautious that it was at all dodgy or that birds were still hanging about then Midlothian would,nt have Lib. I dont know the answer but still think it may be atmospheric.

[REDCHEQHEN]

Can I stick my nose in please - some of your birds have been reported in Whitby and Scarborough - both of these have North Road Clubs as well as South Road, North Road were at Whitley Bay on Saturday, they did not have good returns, I know some Scarborough birds have been reported in Scotland, however I do not know the time of liberation of the North Road birds.

i know bobby carruthers a very nice man who gave me birds when i started out

 

henrik

we dont know if the birds cleared or not but would the midlothian convoyer be looking for lanarkshire birds 2hrs after liberation that might be flying a mile or two from the lib site

 

[fifestay]

Do they speak and were they in communication with EACH OTHER ...have both those Feds got a written report re Lib ...maybe ask at Fed meeting

[Henrik]

Might get a bit more info after tonight as Midlothian I believe are having a meeting to discuss whether they can continue with their y/b programme.

AND REMEMBER BOBBYCARUTHERS IS VERY VERY CAREFULL WHEN IT COMES TO LIBERATING PIGEONS, MID LOTHIAN WERE OFF AT 11 OR 1130 AND AS STEVE APPLEBIES REPORT SAYS SUN SHINING AFTER 9 30 AT SCOTCH CORNER , AND STILL COPED IT ,,,,AS WITH ALL THE FEDS THAT DAY AROUND THAT AREA, APPROX 6 FEDS 6 DIFFERANT CONVOYERS, SOMETHING TELLS ME THEY WERE NOT" ALL" WRONG,, I STILL GO BY MY PREVIOUS POSTSON THIS , SOMETHING IN THE AIR ,,,,ATMOSPHERICS

I WAS A TV AERIAL RIGGER,FOR YEARS, SOME DAYS WERE GOOD FOR RECEPTION OTHERS WERE BAD, BAD DAYS WERE DUE TO ATMOSPHERICS, AND THE" TV" NOT GETTING THE PROPER" SIGNAL",DUE TO THIS, ,,JUST A THOUGHT??

i dropped 1 out of 29 from otterburn on saturday and i also won the club place wish you luck with returns in the future

[johno]

the weather on saturday was bad throughout durham. the durham amal held their liberation to around miday. so did unc. i think they use steve appleby.whesther we think that 6 feds letting go means they cannot all be wrong, the returns tell us different. it will be interesting to see the outcome of the emergency meetings tonight.i hope some of the birds turn up. but i fear the worst. the stray centre may have some returns. personally i fear the birds coming back through the stray centre as the mixing of run down birds does no good.

bobby c, beleives it is radar that is one of the reasons he does not like newbury with the nat, and what i noticed wen traveling to my sisters in northallerton wen you get just by penrith on the east side there is tank ranges and other army depots with radar masts and those big circle radar things as well. going down that side of the country. food for thought.

i had 6 m rung pigeons in my loft at the weekend they are now in the stay center

[Chris Little]

There's nowt wrong with Newbury for national racing   :

[maverick]

LOOK BACK OVER THE LAST 3 YEARS AND THE FIRST WEEK IN AUGUST ,THAT WEEK EACH YEAR WE HAVE HAD A FUNNY RACE, I DO NOT HAVE THE ANSWERS TO WHY MAYBE SOMEONE ELSE CAN HELP OUT WITH THIS.

[Guest Paulo]

Our lot west durham amal race got cancelled everybody was gutted but was a good call the weather was crap. Not looking good for this weekend either. I was gutted as me mate eddie was at work and he said I could watch them back for him. So was looking forward to it.

 

Hows the return of you guys pigeons going have you had many returned yet. Great to see all fanciers working together to get the birds back.
