Thanks Tony.

Hi Dave. There are 68 birds home tonight. Don’t put your birds or yourself down. If you think yours aren’t good enough there are 400 other ones in the race from the uk that weren’t good enough. You still have all day tomorrow and probably until around Monday lunchtime to be on the result sheet.

Good luck with it all Andy. I retired last year but don't seem to get any more time for the birds.


I’m hoping to get somewhere with a large garden and even a small paddock if possible. I’m not planning on sitting back and doing nothing. Just wanting to have time to do what I want rather than ...
