Great at Hexham. Great t Moffat great at home end what more can we do ? Ps all in roughly the line of flight , so do u lib or not ? , conveyer tells me that although he hit a few light showers on way home there was nothing to stop pigeons in his opinion and he's been doing this for years , ask big Gavin about the Ayrshire lorry,s way home. Maybe a different story who knows ? 10/16 at oursNaw bad Vincent not great either ,but getting there mate . Wullie away out yet ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
