Last night I received a rather unpleasant email from a federation secretary accusing me on stopping the working man from sending his pigeons

I would like to point out that at the Amalgamation Annual General Meeting the membership voted for the Nationals to be raced from Maidstone, despatch to be Friday and that pick up times be 2 hours earlier .

Neither Brian, Peter or myself have a vote on this the 2 hours earlier was carried by 6 federations to 3
