Hope racing the west with young birds goes well, if returns are are good we may well see Lanarkshire join you in 2011

hope you can keep us up to date with the amount of young birds in each race garry,

and you will be praying, it is as the norm

that there are loads of west in the wind

[yeboah]

Wouldn't even send the wife to sedburgh we half our convoy every time we went there even worse last year i swear if i live to be 100 will never send another doo to sedburgh ,controllers report two years ago stated (young birds )were targeted on liberation by peregrine falcons convoyer stated he had never seen them go so high convoy split in two ,one batch never made it ,they never get a chance to clear from sedburgh ,fantastic race point if we did not have a falcon problem but as it is lambs to the slaughter

danny my birds do best with wind on their nose not on their butts. if we get a lot of blow homes it does not do yb,s much good well not mine anyway.

if you would not send the wife to sedburgh i won,t be sending more than 2 or 3 yb,s, will also pass on to club delegate to pass on at next meting the view i have got regarding this race point.

THANKS

[yeboah]

Your welcome only pointing out the truth and trying to save yb's we found our worst races were sedburgh and leyland with yb's once we got clear of that area down to lymm had much much better racing and returns ,our management committee had proposed this year we race appleby or shap which is at the top of the hill then jump them straight to lymm but this lost the vote to another proposal to race the a1 route with both old and young good luck with your season
