NORFOLK & SUFFOLK with Trevor (White Feather) Harris
Picture of my pair of top-class Jan Aardens youngsters, the prize to the winner of my competition. My racing Another week gone by and I came 10th club from Hastings. The mileage is not long enough for me and, as I will be aiming for the nationals, the birds are not in form yet. They will be for the first national Falaise with the BICC. My birds are fit and healthy as they are always but they need that extra bit of motivation.
