With the first Nat the following Thursday I think I will be leaving them at home this week-end. But, I may send a Yearling with A/V Yearling Open Race as it has been set up for it.

I saw the Weather Forecast on the BBC to-night Walter and to be perfectly honest They have not reported a correct forecast in memory covering the whole U.K. So I might take it with a pinch of salt Plus in Tiger looking after the birds they could not be in safer hands..

It should have been the NEHU open from Burbure (near Lillers) on Saturday but the forecast is rain and thunderstorms - with electrically charged atmosphere? for Saturday

 

It looks like the Up North Combine may well be liberating tomorrow (Friday) instead as we basketted this morning/afternoon and will be onsite early tomorrow

[tyson]

[jimbo54]

Saturday very risky, don't think Lanarkshire controllers can take take a chance in case they get a repeat of last week, Sunday looks best bet

[greenbar]

Defo sunday.

The BICC are at POITIERS this week end. the weather don't look to good, with the Rain coming in from the south west to the UK, I wonder if they will liberate the pigeon very early on Saturday & miss the bad weather??. We also have an inland race from YELVERTON the same day, If they hold over until Sunday I will be away on Sunday & will not be there to verificat my pigeon within 30 mins of timing in my 1st pigeon home. "Money down the pan". I will not be sending to Yelverton with the Fed. (That's Pigeon Racing) Happy Days. Ha!
