Ah, thanks Andy, I stand corrected anyway, it was 1895 birds. So, you are saying that 156 members verified the first bird only. So from 165 members who sent most clocked one bird. I guess that constitutes a GOOD race. Never looked at the national result like that before. Thanks for enlightening me ...

They only verify their first arrivals Dave. All the NC, NE & NW section senders timed. I think the winner in Crewe has the first 3 open.

After a 2 day holdover the BICC birds were finally liberated at 7.25am in a fresh SSW wind. There were some very fast times and as you would expect it was the longest flying members that benefited. But some very good performances from many. IMG_3232.jpeg IMG_3235.jpeg IMG_3236.jpeg Well done to all ...

Light cloud cover this morning with the odd break. 9c.

Good morning all.

Done - sorry had friends round for a meal and they've not long gone

No problem, just wanted to remind you.

Neither of the missing ones back today. How did you get on Charlton?

Mike get your guess in for Trev’s race tomorrow.

Well done all.

There were very big gaps between pigeons for all. Mr Stoodley had the first 4 in Crewkerne. His first pigeon was 20 minutes in front of his second. Shows something drastically went wrong.
