got to agree with you tam ,think mist/fog has got a large part to play down the east and dont know why everyone harps on about bop there at your front door they dont just appear when it comes racing time the scottish borders are full of them and thats a fact

[geordie1234]

Just got a yearling hen from newark so thats me up to 11/20 flown right out. Build her back up nicely for maidstone or ypres

[andy Burgess]

just had 1 from saturday ,only 5 card winners to come now

[b.massey]

Got my wee hen that won race 1 this morning! Still only 5/10

[midnight_son]

38/41 Peterborough. Nothing since 11am Sunday morning. Two yearling cocks and one channel hen down. Bad enough but looked a lot worse on the cards at 5pm on Saturday.

Looks like your race was the double of Lanarkshire's.

i aggree with both you guys back down the west with a flexy rule that in the event of a strong south east wind forcast the race controler can switch to a race point in the east there would have been a lot less birds lost last year if we had this rule in place dont tie the controllers hands with stupid rules the birds come first

Sammy leicester in no doon the east its bang in the middle of england only 24 miles east of worcester and a dont think they get much fog there.

 

yous think you got a bad yin on sat , there lods of feds get that and worse every week of the year , look at ayrshire down to a few hundred doos , 38/41 would be classed as a super race by lots of other feds ,

 

the big birdage pulls a lot out a hole but when it dwindles a few percie strikes and its all over :animatedpigeons:

Seems a good programme for Lanarkshire members

A management committee should decide if a strong east wind blows quickly move the birds over to the east route. You have to give your birds every bit of help they can get. The birds will end up in Ireland just like this season if you don't

  Good your listening  wattie.

frank i dicussed this with your dad in the earnock vaults pub 40 years ago after losing 2 hens that were 18th and 22nd section falaise in a south east wind from lancaster 129 miles its nothing new m8 but the race controller was never given the power then it was you cant do that you need to book the lib site all thats needed is one site about the 130 mile area so no matter what the birds are getting a good work out

I liked franks dad wattle , a very good pigeon man , I used to go in and see him every Monday when I worked in Blantyre years ago , a cuppa and a natter out the back , aye and no big lofts and hunners o doos , a wee L shaped red and white stripped loft about 20 ft in total . He had cracking blues and blue pieds , Irish birds , the big b,ger would nt say where they came from .

you have to bear in mind all liberation sites have to be booked and paid for well in advance,so what do you do book and pay for some down the west and same again down the east and as somebody else pointed out Leicester is more central,do you not think it would be detrimental to the birds going down the west one week then down the east the next or vice versa
