del what did they do 50 years ago when they were no cars, think they called it flagging then

 

I know what yer saying Davie but what I remember from years ago is, they went in the transporter for training and ALL the birds came singly all day, the next toss they came slightly better, the next they all came together BUT, there wasn't the hawks, mob phones, etc, etc then and now I think we need to help the doos as much as possible. My problem with your NO TRAINING theory is this, when untrained doos go into a transporter for the first time they jeopardise the rest of the convoy because they hold them up at lib, this gives bop time to come in and attack them. Hence all the disasterous races at the start of the yb season.

Well done George on your result today It would be good to see the Cambuslang result up every week.

Tom I'd love to put it up bt once a member got it wrong and there was a hullabalo ... I was putting it up at the start of the season bt I went 3 weeks without seeing a result then didn't want to put it up as i won it that week...didn't want ppl thinking i only put it up when i do ok lol

 

I'll email you it or text you it in future if you like m8

 

Its a shame we have one of the best in our club not getting the recognition he deserves...infact some great performances from a lot of fanciers in ours
