Pompey Mick Posted July 28, 2006 Report Posted July 28, 2006 I would like to take the opportunity to congratulate three fellow members of my Club ( The Milton Homing Society, Portsmouth) on their performances from the NFC and BBC races from Bordeaux last weekend. Firstly, Mr & Mrs. Mick & Sue Betteridge, for their performace in the British Barcelona Club winning 1st , 2nd & 10th Section, 4th , 10th & 30th Open racing to a very small loft set-up in a tiny back garden. Then I must congratulate 'Bomber' Mellis for winning 1st Sec, 8th Open in the NFC followed by Kevin & John Zerafa in 2nd spot in the Section,15th Open. Bombers & Kevins lofts are featured in the Members Photos Section under 'small City lofts' thread.
Guest Silverwings Posted July 29, 2006 Report Posted July 29, 2006 Its great to have perfomances like that from members within your club , you know that when you have good results by your own birds, against them they are even more rewarding .......ray
Pompey Mick Posted July 29, 2006 Author Report Posted July 29, 2006 Looks like Kevin & John Zerafa are keeping up the good work with a probable 1st Sec B from Saintes with the NFC. That makes two 1st Sec. and two 2nd Sec with the NFC and BBC so far this year.

Pompey Mick Posted July 30, 2006 Author Report Posted July 30, 2006 This is a photograph of a real small set up, Paul, This is the lofts of Mick & Sue Betteridge and it shows the whole 'garden' apart from a small 6'x4' shed just visible on th right. To this loft they clocked 1st ,2nd & 11th Sec. 4th,10th & 30th Open BBC Bordeaux last week It shows what you can achieve with limited resources.
