Just been talking to Peter , as you are all probably aware the gates at Maidstone Lakes don’t open until 7.00 am .

Peter has been in contact with them and they are prepared to have someone open the gates for us late Saturday night which would give Peter time to have the birds watered and rested and give him every chance for an early liberation

To enable Peter to get there at that time it will be necessary to collect the birds 2 hours earlier than I have already posted so IF THE BIRDS go Saturday the pick up times will be 2 hours earlier

Race delayed by 24 hours vote was 3 to 0 decision will be made Saturday morning for Sunday

Alan Brown

hope they fly sunday as after last weeks jump in mileage and a hard race was had by most a better weather forcast on sunday would suit me --what about you ?
