kirky members used to be the same as me in bo,ness 567mls reims

nope the nat men will be away to bourges no ypres ;D

 

They are two different races a week apart. I'll maybe try a yearling or two to Ypres, I'd never dream of doing that for Bourges ~ its a challenge and a half that one ~ and one is all I can see for it right now..

and glasgow to bourges is 669 mile airport   a differance of 100 mile  just 17 hours on the wing at 40 mph

eastborne  will be ok  as the lanarkshire will be there with a few pilgrams but thre main nat men will be away to the gold cup  so it will just be  as if we have when our self the same will happen at ypres  as the nat will want to go to bourges  the lanark shire wins again  but the national looses as the birdage from lanarkshire will be  200 at the most to it   400 for eastborne  max  could use  couriers  ;D

 

dont know why you have so much to say about snfc when you are not a member. you obviously know very little about long distance racing. eastbourne wont affect the reims entry because almost every fed in scotland went to the south coast that weekend before the snfc put eastbourne in the programme. distance fliers have their gold cup birds prepared before eastbourne. there is a hard core of dedicated distance men who go to the longest race and there is no way they will send there birds to ypres instead. going by the last two years ypres seems to be a favoured race for yearlings after eastbourne. there was at least one yearling on the result from newbury, eastbourne, ypres and falaise last year. fantastic performance

cod lips no i dont usualy compete any way

 

 

i just wondered if u were putting entry 2 the inlands because 4 the last week u've done nothing but belittle the inland nationals despite fanciers from all over scotland sending excellent birdages to them and endorsing them in the true spirit of our sport and yet i see u use lesser distances with lesser birdages in ur advert, in recent years anyway 2 sell ur birds 1 other thing walter if cairnbulg is 500 miles from hastings (nearer 480 mile?) bourges might be 1500 mile by ur measuring

I think the birdage going to the Inland Nationals shows that it is catering for a need in Scotland. Seems an excellent introduction to National racing, and gets the SNFC more members who then might also try the channel. Ticking all the boxes, in my opinion, and shouldn't be knocked..
