Davie would you say your federation racing and returns have improved since you got your new transporter

Or set a wind up Benzing clock. Couldnae resist that

Came well to start with but a few missing at clocks. I have two with tail feathers or secondaries missing. Par for the course I'm afraid

I think you will find Ancenis is in the west of France while Ypres is in Belgium. Totally different line of flight

Well done to Mike McPherson, Bill Dorward and Charlie Cameron. First three in section C and 2nd, 7th and 8th Open

Well you would need capacity for your largest entry which this year would be around 4500. So either 2 at 2250 or 3 at 1500. I have no idea what that would cost though.

What size of transporter(s) should they buy and how many

Congratulations to the winner! Also well done to Dave Baldie 1st Section C 2nd open and a special well done to club mate Ian Scott 2nd Section C 3rd open. Pity they missed my four off the result. Should be 37th open

Just what I was thinking. Nobody said a cheep about the weather on Saturday. We were all expecting a good steady race. If the snfc had held over on Saturday they would have been slagged off to hell and back on here.

Race marking delayed by 24 hours. Will be reviewed tomorrow as Sunday not looking too good either

Because the sun was shining at Leicester and it was overcast at Buckingham

Well done Gavin & Jimmy.

Good to see the keyboard race controllers are still around. I'm as frustrated as the rest at not getting a race but I don't think they will have held without good reason. And as for moving the birds today. No way!
