bibendium Posted February 10, 2012 Report Posted February 10, 2012 why? the national is still available to those who want to compete, I think we made the correct choice, the vote was quite convincing ,
rikki Posted February 10, 2012 Author Report Posted February 10, 2012 thats a pity about the nationals ricky as i think section f was becoming stronger all the time, :( as for the route change time will tell. ;) just as well the morris boys o johnstone dont fly wae ayrshire
rikki Posted February 10, 2012 Author Report Posted February 10, 2012 a decision will never be better than the reaity of the truth ,something we all do in a regular basis , with hind sight we went with national to show we could compete sometimes the majority can also be the minorty when the decision was made in ignorance to the benefit of the birds ,we learn every day, hope am wrong !!
alec guinness Posted February 10, 2012 Report Posted February 10, 2012 just as well the morris boys o johnstone dont fly wae ayrshire yes good fanciers rikki,lets hope section f is still strong for 2012. :)
bibendium Posted February 10, 2012 Report Posted February 10, 2012 I hope you are too mate, but I voted for west and I am anything but ignorant.

yeboah Posted February 10, 2012 Report Posted February 10, 2012 Good Luck Lads with your racing ,dont think it really matters which route you take personally as there is no easy route back into ayrshire ,you have some hellish terrain to cross,I think it must rate as one of the most difficult places to race pigeons into and always admire the performances at national level given the disadvantage they face before the strings are cut .
bullcock Posted February 13, 2012 Report Posted February 13, 2012 yes good fanciers rikki,lets hope section f is still strong for 2012. :) yes as you said I hope that section f keeps getting stronger, it has built up over the last few years and there is no reason why the ayrshire boys cant fly in the nationals in fact flying down the west could be an advantage only participation and time will tell. IT STILL HAS TO BE CONFIRMED BUT IT LOOKS LIKE WE SHOULD BE OPERATING THE KILBARCHAN MARKING STATION AGAIN THIS YEAR, THIS SHOULD HELP KEEP THE NUMBERS UP.
lordcornwallis Posted February 14, 2012 Report Posted February 14, 2012 the late bob Kennedy of Irvine was 1st SNFC and he raced down the west coast, the traditional and fair route into Ayrshire !

JohnQuinn Posted February 15, 2012 Report Posted February 15, 2012 I came across this when browsing, might interest some of you The RSPB and other organisations have been providing nesting ledges and boxes to help peregrines re-colonise their former ranges in the south and east of England. Continuing vigilance is needed to keep in check the illegal killing of peregrines by gamekeepers and pigeon fanciers, and the robbing of nests for eggs and chicks by egg collectors and falconers. The peregrine is included on the Amber List of UK birds of conservation concern. Work it out.
frank-123 Posted February 15, 2012 Report Posted February 15, 2012 Lanarkshire federation members voted to go alone. Has Ayrshire fed been told they can go with Lanarkshire?
delboy74 Posted February 15, 2012 Report Posted February 15, 2012 Yes frank they did but surely if another fed wants to hitch a lift would it not be beneficial for Lanarkshire to let them travel with Lanarkshire Also I think the going alone part meant not with the national
Guest Gareth Rankin Posted February 15, 2012 Report Posted February 15, 2012 Yes frank they did but surely if another fed wants to hitch a lift would it not be beneficial for Lanarkshire to let them travel with Lanarkshire Also I think the going alone part meant not with the nationalspot on, common sense should prevail
ALF Posted February 15, 2012 Report Posted February 15, 2012 I THOUGHT THE ONLY VOTE WE HAD AT OUR MEETING WAS TO GO WITH THE SNFC OR NOT?
frank-123 Posted February 15, 2012 Report Posted February 15, 2012 spot on, common sense should prevail Common sense should prevail ?? what happened to the common sense when we ditched the SNFC to go it alone as Ayrshire were not going west at that timenow hearing Lanarkshire might be getting transported by Ayrshire oh it would be common sense approach to joint convoy. Can someone explain the difference between the SNFC taking our birds and Ayrshire taking them ?
