BASKETING HAS BEEN DELAYED DUE TO POOR FORECAST, NEXT MESSAGE 8PM ON FRIDAY.

 

weather for the whole weekend looks poor especially on the coast so unless there is a change of forecast i dont anticipate getting a race this weekend but i am looking to have a race either monday or tuesday if necessary, i dont want to send birds to the race point for their first time if i dont think there is a real chance of a race taking place.

Also dont want to have them sitting there for 2 or 3 nights in the crates in the hope that we get a break in the weather.

good idea that delaying race George hope we get them on Monday or tues

WEATHER FORECAST IS IMPROVING FOR SUNDAY SO STILL A CHANCE OF A RACE THEN SO NEXT MESSAGE NOON ON SATURDAY.

 

monday still looks the better day with far less cloud cover but sundays forecast has gotten better by the hour so dont rule it out just yet

do the training tosses.
