This is before any youngsters have been auctioned off over the two sales one in mid March and another 2 weeks later.

Only one person never paid by the 1st of December deadline, this person had two places provisionally booked. So the two places to make it fair were split and given to the first two people on waiting list so they had one entry each.

Thanks for all the support hopefuly going to be the start of somthing special.

Well here we go. Only way your in is once your paid up. Won't be chasing any money or promising places to people before they are paid to then have to chase up for months on end, haven't the time. Going to run with 70 allocations to start with, that alone will be over £1000 to fly for before a single bird has even been sold. We are hopeful also of some good sponsoring for the race and hopefully a big brewery sponsor so this could be fantastic.

This morning my wife Norma and I attended St Catherine’s Church in Crook for the Rememberance Sunday Service and Cenotaph Parade afterwards

On behalf of the West Durham Amalgamation I took with me a wreath. The service started with all the wreaths being laid at the alter and a packed church heard a very moving service ,from the church we walked the short distance to the cenotaph which had a crowd of several hundred people there, all the names of the people laying wreaths were read out and I placed the wreath on the cenotaph.
