Not bad, had 4 out of 5 in 10 minutes, CSCFC a different story though!

A bit erratic with returns in the club but a clear winner with John Good winning the Milton HS by 9mins doing 1192. I was 30 mins behind but got 9 out of 10.

Pompey Mick, I was at Stratford on Avon today and the visibility was only about a mile with full cloud cover for most of the day

Thanks for the info Bad Trapper, some of my members had poor returns  1/7 & 1/4 while others had good returns 10/11 and 9/10 your observations confirmed what we thought, that the birds had trouble leaving the race point, (except the winner). Given the conditions I think we should be glad of the returns we got. Luckily the birds were brought back from Melton Mowbray due to a car boot sale and this was our fourth consective race from Stratford otherwise things could have been a lot worse. We let go at 12.00, was there any sun at all?

The sun only came out for a while in the afternoon but still very hazy. Spoke to a friend of mine who lives in the town and he said there were birds flying around the town most of the day.
