Walter swanston Posted March 28, 2011 Report Posted March 28, 2011 Chris the racepoints were changed on the advice of the race controller.>Seemingly there are problems at both sites ranging from overhead wires to American Radar Installations and the flightpath from Manchester Airport.It was thought inappropriate to go against the advice of the controller who has an extensive knowledge of these racepoints and yes it would have been nice to have this knowledge at the AGM when the racepoints were decided.I try to run this Federation on the best guidance I can get from experienced fanciers.Tell you what though it`s hard going aqt times
Chris Little Posted March 28, 2011 Report Posted March 28, 2011 Thanks for the info Walter, most appreciated. This instance is a reflection of when it comes to racepoint proposals in any organisation, not enough research if any carried out prior to submitting proposals.... jmo

yeboah Posted March 28, 2011 Report Posted March 28, 2011 Lockerbie Racing Pigeon Club will be race marking there birds at Hoddam on the kind invitation of there members as we are homeless at present due to major refurbishment works at auction mart with no guaranties at present on a return ,I for one would be all in favour of a future merger which i think personally would benefit both fancier and bird (more to hold there line once i got mine trained to keep up with stevens )

Walter swanston Posted March 28, 2011 Report Posted March 28, 2011 As the secretary of Lockerbie I totally associate myself with Yeboah`s remarks.Mergers and amalgamations are the future for the survival of small and struggling pigeon clubs
