At this time of the year, with winter kicking in. We tend to our loft tasks, make sure the heath of the birds are paramount. After all the loft tasks are done, time for a cuppa tea or coffee and a good read.
Mike as a topic on going, and as had good feedback, So I have been looking at different readings about old strains. I come across this selection of reading, I hope some members get the chance to have a read.

Actually, here we are a month past the longest day, the babies are flying an hour and i'm starting to find the odd feather in the corners. :?
Yep, it's half past summer.

The old staff van reet video is on you tube
I found his feeding interesting and simple which Dave Allen and Bert hession explain in more detail towards the end
I based mine a lot on that making it hard to over feed for someone with my limited knowledge
Ideal for short races
