sapper756 Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 As basketing day approaches and fanciers are selecting their entries to tis weekends race, How many do you plan to send? Where are they racing from? How far is it?
Mattydoos79 Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 I plan to send 18 to Arniston which is 180miles to me I think but weather looking a bit dodgy
REDCHEQHEN Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 We basketed today for Saturday for our first combine race of the season - Eastbourne, it will possibly be a NEHU race, but they have never gone to plan over the past few years! So could possibly be well over 30,000 birds (there were approx 35,000 birds at Chelmsford last week in the UNC - but 3 cuts) 275 miles to me - and I'm surprised (and slightly embarrassed) to find that we were the club's biggest sender For the record - the club has sent 312 (14 members) and that is the biggest send to a first combine race our club has had - in many years, about 1/3rd more than is usual
Edinburgh west Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 I have 12 in total 9 cocks 3 hens going. The cocks have been split from there hen a few days now and I can see a difference in them already so hopefully a better race for me than the last couple of races but I fancy a hen on chipping eggs. We are at ripon 140 miles. Atb for the weekend.
andy Burgess Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 sending the same "lucky 13" as last week , and the week before , and the week before .probably tempted fate there ? to Ripon , unsure "how far" will check .
Kenny Morrison Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 Sending 19 to consett think its about 160mls to aberdeen
THE FIFER Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 will be sending 6 to RIPON 155ml 470yds to me
greenlands Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 Thinking 15 at the mo,that could change. Tewkesbury 196 mile.
stan the man Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 I plan to send 18 to Arniston which is 180miles to me I think but weather looking a bit dodgyI think you’ve got your mileage wrong Mathew. Think Elgin flys 125 . 😃
Mattydoos79 Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 I think you’ve got your mileage wrong Mathew. Think Elgin flys 125 . 😃 I’m not Elgin I’m fraserburgh and 125miles really?
stan the man Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 Possibly 20 cocks and 20 hens. Arniston with north of Scotland fed.
Blue Chequer Pied Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 I’m not Elgin I’m fraserburgh and 125miles really? You would fit right in if you were in Elgin but 180 miles you would need to be flying to the moon.....then again you could be flying 180 miles after all 👽
Kenny Morrison Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 I plan to send 18 to Arniston which is 180miles to me I think but weather looking a bit dodgyThink its about 134mls mathew good luck on race day
alex young Posted May 11, 2018 Report Posted May 11, 2018 Same as last week 8 cocks and 8 hens, racing from Yeovil (170mls) with a mass lib in the race to celebrate the 65 year reign of The Queen.
