And the rest of the resultLiege 2 & 3.pdf

Liege 1.pdf See if this works. Sorry about the print quality

As far as I understood the race control team resigned. No one deemed them unfit. Raymond White spoke sincerely today and no one doubts they took what they thought were the correct decisions at the time but despite last season being poor for most national organisations you can’t deny mistakes were made.

Despite the winning velocity being under 1100 I remember this was a very good race. We timed 4/4 between 4.55 and 6.45 the second morning. The last one missed the result. I remember that season well, we sent 17 birds to 6 channel races and finished with 16 and only one of them not in race time. Imagine doing that now!

Well said Dougie. There were several federations not represented yesterday so there is plenty opportunity for members to get involved in the management of the SHU if they wish. Woof woof!

Same here but make it 170 miles. Encouraging to see 3 members at the AGM other than delegates. Approximately 1 more than usual.

Well done Gavin & all concerned

Sorry to hear that Kenny Gourlay from Carnoustie passed away at the weekend. He was a great character who will be sadly missed by all who knew him. Sincere condolences to his family.

Well done Gavin. Heard it went well
