Race

[Pigeon Thos]

tom I have not an issue with the pigeon being sent this week the forcast I have is ok I did not ask for meeting to be called the president called the meeting so dinna start accuseing myself for this meeting being called olso I am qite aware of the rules you dont have to preach them to me

If you are at the meeting you can make this clear to the delegates and I am not suggesting you have an agenda.

[blaz]

its to stop the men who are training from having an advantage m8

 

ha ha a bird that flys well round the loft could win it .it is only 60 miles.

Ye Rab thats deffo tru. I am hearing some horror stories of training doon here? Whether they are 100% accurate I dont know but no smoke without fire?

when i was over in ireland last week a lot were training hard in the baltic nor easterlies , some were dropping 29 fae 50 at 15 miles

dal ithink the guys that are getting the problems have had there birds locked up all winter let them out a few weeks and think they are fit enough to stick in a basket ive had 16 tosses with 18 late breds from 12 to 24 mile and lost one they were in a sect there self and out all winter

if ye left yer 18 late breeds oot at mine here walter you wid be lucky to have 2 left . mine used tae be oot open hole since i started in the 70s but was loosing 30 to 40 doos over the winter way sparr goss and percy so there locked up after last yb race now . They have been out now and then over last 4 weeks but been locked up last 10 days as a was away on hol

 

but if i get one toss i will send the lot this sat as they will be fine :emoticon-0167-beer:

ment tae say as long as its not nor east m8

tom I will be at the meeting as racecontroller and as far as I am concerned the race is on my own pigeons have not had a toss yet as they have been rearing young but will be sending if race is on as it is only 60mls with a lt s.west wind just a toss for the birds hope this makes this clear it has nothing to do with myself

[blaz]

their a few posts about training or racing in east or north east winds. do well for any fancier to take it on board . i fly open bowl and when my birds decide it is to cold to even come out and fly round loft then time for a bit of thought for 1st race. if the race goes ahead this Saturday which i think it wil .i will only send a few

exactly Rab ..up here they trained well. Sperrins gave us good cover, i have had only 2 tosses on me own and the birds made hard work of it. The fed van has had good training.

 

But beyond the sperrins its still baltic and birds will find it tough.

 

seasons have shifted ...its not natural to train in these winds..used to be march held the east now its april.
