REDCHEQHEN Posted May 10, 2018 Report Share Posted May 10, 2018 Up North CombineWest Durham AmalgamationDurham Combine and New North Amalgamation - all up together, scheduled for Saturday 12th - but Weather forecast a bit iffy, so might be Sunday Would anybody like to hazard a guess at the number of birds in the race? To be honest it will be very much s guesstimate, as not everybody sends to these racesas they don't like the 'all up together'. A SW wind is forecast changing to SE and ESE So my guess is 37,500 birds (it could be 10,000 either way!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
