don't think our birds would have clashed with yours mate as we wouldn't have got to garstang area before 5pm but we think they maybe have went up the backside of the fells which was strange with a light south west wind and more south up here.

My club rings include GB 12 D. , most of mine are D rings with. 6. GB 12 X. These are the fed gold rings , the reason I mention the D rings as we had a funny race on Saturday as well so these birds could be. Glasgow pigeons

We are about 10,miles from Garstang and the wind Saturday afternoon were blowing fresh west we were racing from Tewkesbury and had a shocking race we were libbed @12.45 we sent 20 and got 13,back not had a bird reported and the birds were in top condition we are baffled as to why we dropped 7 its the same racepoint again this week but the forcast aint good so we will give it a miss.
