LANARKSHIRE FEDERATION
Tom Corrie jnr
The Lanarkshire federation committee have developed a programme this year to include some short races on the same days as the SNFC inland nationals. This is to provide the members with some flights for those that didn't fancy the later or looking for some extra sport. The members have backed these races with excellent birdage ,they have been a great success. Long may it continue!
The convoy of 2,100 plus 8 Fauldhouse club baskets were away at 7am in a light south east wind for the sixty odd mile race back into central Scotland. The winning birds took around the 1 hr 10 minutes to record high into the 1500s and again it was a terrific race with excellent returns.
Thanks again to Tommy McDonagh for his dedication to role of race controller and convoyer. Tommy also takes the time to collect lost pigeons and return to their owners." Top Man"
