HOW DID YOU GET ON YOUR SELF GARETH AND AS I ALWAYS ASK WHO WON CAMBUSLANG

A wee bit late at 13.10 but will finish 2,4,5,6 from 500 entered birds,

Too early for me to know who won Cambuslang Jamie but at the time of speaking to wee Billy the best he had heard was E Robin at 13.17

[bibendium]

what distance were you flying today ?

[JohnQuinn]

No in 'til 13.10 ma self, and i'm still waiting on 10/38, not exactly a good day for me!! Ma 1st doo will be doing 1087.85, but the winners will be doing 1150+ i reckon. Not too far from what Gareth predicted this morning, you'll need to let me know what your system is for guessing the eta's
