That is my view as well Gooner, I don't want any cash back so make a donation to charity.
I cannot see the point in sending your babies just to satisfy this one loft race Mark, and ending up with no yearlings to race next year. The birds come first in my honest opinion.

youer all haveing a laugh this is one loft race not pamper time the birds fly on and thats it ??and as i have paid for 8 of um im top decision maker

now the way i see it superstar that boy of youers knobbled um so he gets the glorey for the old birds ?????? what i surrgest is this???????? i paid for two for charity cause of ice maidens choice plus 6 for myself ???im greedy?? lets have sense here .the birds left tossed at newnam first bird back wins the prize this be given to ice maiden for charity i think thats fair ???? if anyone has objection then say so ohhh and the first prize is 200 thats it the rest to be split to cover paypal costs for amar and mark for the job done to date

Well I personally don't mind what you do Mark, all Gooner and I are saying is we don't want our money back. I'm sure what ever Charity you decide to give it to, it will be put to good use for those who are less fortunate than us

like the bit in red ??? im broke so i can have it all alll all i tell you all Thank you

Sadly no more birds have made it back or even been reported so just 10 here now. As Chris says I am hoping to send the remaining birds to the last 3 races Sept 5th, 12th and 19th from Wincanton, Kingsdown and Exeter.

Thanks for the words of encouragement Bobo. None of these birds are directly related to each other but most are similarly bred, the exception being "92" which is a Serge Van Elsacker x Bertie camphuis. The rest are all Staf Van reets.
