Life in Bendigo.
David won it my a country mile. He sent me a message at 12.28 saying he just had 20 drop together! Good flying.
Greetings from the land down under. 
Blessed is he who expecteth nothing, for verily, he shall not be disappointed.

But saying that, after 6 races, Nick has won three, I have won one, Ray has won one and David has won one.
So I have competed quite well against the blokes with a big setup. Nick bred about 200.......
This week I sent two.

Yes well done mate I did see you had only sent 2 and others loads
Sadies Lofts home of decent birds just a useless loft manager, and now a confirmed loser but proud
It's the last of the early club races next Saturday.
Getting very short of pigeons, since I have put a couple away for stock, and a couple of the 'old birds' from last year are no good.
But, I have some yearling cocks that are just, blooming. The dark bloke who went last week is looking fantastic. He is 'big', as in big and light, hungry, and quiet. I cannot fault him.
The mealy has gone from being a late bred that fluked a win by breaking away at the right moment, to being a ball of muscle and all over the place looking for a scrap
And there are a couple of blue bar cocks doing their best ( and winning ) to get their girlfriends into bed.
Isn't this fun?

Looks like you have a nice team Murray. Re the guy who bred 200 youngsters ....how can you connect with them? All the top guys here in UK(national races) all send an army every race. Sending over 60 plus birds to 500 mile races, just means they lost another sixty through the season. The average fancier can't compete against these guys unless all the stars align . One positive outcome from the mass senders is that they keep the price of birdage down 
You keep enjoying your birds mate. ATB Les

We’ve got a few members in the combine who are sending over a 100 youngsters each.. I don’t think anyone can look after that number of birds without a fair bit of help.
Back just enjoying club racing for the time being.
