It’s amazing what a win can do for your health ,I’ve been really bad since October with my breathing and coughing and still the doctors haven’t got it sorted ,however on Sunday we were racing from Worksop 108 miles and as I’m not so well I wasn’t quite prepared for such a fast race ,I was in the loft replacing the drinkers when my good mate Malcolm rang me and said it will be fast ,I said yeah I’m nearly ready so get off the phone ,within 1 second of putting the phone down my ets beeped and my dark hen all the ones was coming through the trap she won the club and was 1st fed and best velocity out of the 4 northerly federations , what makes it even better is ALL THE ONES was an egg off Binkie and Ryhope Rocket that she laid on the day that I bought the pair at Mark Walkers I brought the eggs back and even though I had nothing sitting the same time I put the the in an egg box and turned them 3 times a day for 7 days then floated them under feeders one of the eggs hatched out and was put in my race team and this was 111 this is the only youngster we have raced from BINKIE and ROCKET and we couldn’t of asked for any better also a funny thing with 111 is every time I let the hens out they do 1 hour 15 minimum and as soon as I drop the trap she is 1 st on the clock every time without fail ,I had 5 training tosses before the 1 st race and she was 1 st on the clock 4 of them she is defo something special so I would like to take this opportunity to thank Mark Walker for giving me the opportunity to buy BINKIE and ROCKET cheers Mark
And as I said at the beginning of my post it definitely brightens your day after such a long time being bad
