How did the racing go for members this weekend
Looks to have been a good race here on Saturday and Sunday seems to have been a fast one on the south

I don't mind sharing Phil's with you Neil

He was 5th & 6th this week, beaten only by a young Polish lad called Daniel almost 5 miles short of him (Dan was 1,2,3,4)

To be honest it was as good as we dared hope as they were still being cankered on Thursday night which isn't ideal - but it was for the greater good.

Returns decent with 21/22 and as a team they were pretty decent too - so plenty to look forward to

If Phil was gonna get beat I guess he'd choose Daniel 'cos Phil's been a great support to Dan, not only with advice but also providing him with a lot of his foundation stock too 8-) 8-) 8-)

Nice one
So they had a good race well done to the pair of them

I was beginning to think no one on the site raced this weekend

I know the Blandford pigeons racing into the West certainly motored on from the 10:45 lib

Doing almost 1800 ypm - so some fast racing was experienced

Worm was well into the 1700's too if I recall
