(9/9/09) A Ritchie win VIP Lofts lucky draw prize for 2009;Thanks Nigel of VIP Lofts for your support once again donating two squeakers to be flown in the 2010 race by A Ritchie.
(26/8/09 )day two and three birds now added to the listed. All days since the weekend have been very hot 30+ degrees days, not good for thirsty tired birds. Have had a couple reported by non pigeon people and these birds should be back at the weekend.

Please could all owners make arrangements with me to have their birds returned to them ( in the next three weeks )
before I go OS , so Arther will have less to look after in my absence.

Special note; both lucky draw pigeons donated for this years race by VIP Lofts home
, the best in 11th place
(26/8/09)Top 50 only VIP lofts wins both sections of the big race + ring race section and all pools to $20.
Congratulations to Nigel Jarvis taking out almost all the money today and would have had the calcutta if the birds weren't so fast.
It was overcast with SW wind both here and at the race point this morning, although the forecast was for light tail winds swinging to the west later ,we thought it must have passed through more quickly than expected and the tail winds may not come so I went with the 7am lib. It turned out a very warm day 30+ degrees day almost all the way and NE/NW winds
. We missed finishing the calcutta and the raffle of leftover spares, the birds were to quick, we almost made it. The birds were very thirsty in the heat when they got home flying 1320m/m for the winning birds. 27 arrived in the first group and they continued to roll up in good numbers for some time but the heat was clearly affecting the returns as the day went on. Everyone was excited to see the good number of birds make it home, if I were not going OS we would have had another race in a couple of weeks ( SORRY ) $50 pool went to W & J Minett
Some owners got 100% returns ,top effort also some of the "spares" helped a few win some money, lucky people. 221 birds homed
Pools ; $2 pool = $88; $5 pool = $360; $10 pool = $480; $20 pool =$260 and $50 pool = $250

Lib 12 noon overcast and light NW wind, they did it in good time 1200+ m/m; didn't even circle the point, out of sight in no time; Falcons hit a little and one pigeon has received a few stitches. You can't be in the money if you don't enter. Bad luck for some, good for others. results below
