Thanks all, I had another one back this morning.
It amazes me how there always seems to be that small batch who get away from the rest, they must split almost as soon as they leave the liberation site !!

Yes Buster, Danny really does have his birds on form at the moment, he is very dedicated and does work hard with them so really does deserve to do well.

His winner this week was bred by Alan Still as was his Fed winner from two weeks ago Andy, that's who bred the sire of the two babies you have.

Good luck all
How was the race Trev
It was much quicker than I expected Neil 😬😕
I thought 7hrs would be a good one so when I got my first bird in 6hrs 42mins I thought I had a good one, the cock bird I got first was 4th club from Hexham last year and 3rd Club from Perth, my 2nd bird turned up about 20minutes later, he was 2nd club for me from Perth last year.
I don't think their can have been much strength in the wind with the speeds that some of the birds were doing !! Returns were patchy and clearly some broke away from the rest very early in the race. I had 7/18 when I went to the club and another 3 when I got home at half 9, so have 10/18 now. I'm a bit disappointed that I didn't do better and that I'm so many birds still out, never mind, onwards and upwards 👍🤠

This is our Club result, well done again to Danny Porter, it looks like he'll be 4th Federation, we won't know the combine result for a week or two.

This is how my birds came.

Hopefully I'll get a few more home tomorrow 🤞
Well done Trev

Solent fed were 1500 I believe and big 1400
I believe the lnrc was 1580
East Yorkshire 65mph
All from Berwick

Makes me think that the nrcc might be an issue to here for me .The further they go seems the slower they got

The Solent Fed are who went with to Hexham, along with the Dorset Fed so looks like they will beat us then !!
Do you mean you'd consider joining the NRCC then Neil ?? I used to enjoy racing with them back in the 90s !!
Have your club finished Old birds for this year or have you just had enough ??
I do feel for you with these hawk attacks, I have awful trouble round home with the Sparrow hawk but at least that is seasonal and not all year !!
