Racepoint - Grantham 20th May

Well, we managed, I now have 13 birds on their way to Arras
It was a good day at Sappers Corner, everybody being patient on what was a learning curve for basketing.
Anyway, it showed it could be done, We have a NEHU CHANNEL RACE.
SO to the doom and gloom knockers who tried to destroy Channel racing in the NEHU to suit your own agenda HANG YOUR HEADS IN SHAME
A big thank you to the NEHU, Richard Wade in particular and the UNC Management team for their outstanding efforts, YOU DID IT, WE ALL THANK YOU
