Eastbourne site is booked, Thanks for every ones patience on what has been a couple of difficult days for both committees, Its not what we wanted but the last thing we need is a bad race on the 1st channel race, the birds are still there for the other 4 races

Friday 27th May 2016

Due to the ongoing weather forecast being poor for the race from Arras the emergency committee have voted 5 to 0 to have a substitute national from Eastbourne on Sunday ,basketing will be on Saturday , centre settings pick ups 6 hours earlier than normal

The reason behind the decision are based on the weather , we have considered the Racepoint and choice Eastbourne as it is the longest inland point

Brian is going to try and book the site this morning and if there are any problems I will post a message

Arras Friday 27th May 2016

Birds not going today for Sunday vote was 3 to 0

In view of ongoing poor weather forecast for northern France I have arranged for emergency committee to look at options ,one of which is to have an inland race on Sunday

Hope to have this sorted by 8.30 today
