It was almost 8 years ago to the day that I kinda witnessed one of the greatest loft performances in the UK of all time
The 2017 Tullamore race on 15th April with the NIPA
A whopping 832 members sending 22,129 birds
I'd been on the phone to the lads and we were speculating about how they'd come as a team - expectations were high as the birds were well. Gary called and said "We've got 1 - just 1 - f_ck knows where the others are"
Just as I started to reply I remember him saying "Oh f_ck here they are"
The result says it all. 32 of the top 40 against 22,129 birds
I remember it like yesterday. Happy Days
