GOOD EVENING EVERYONE ,SEAN HAS BEEN FEELING A BIT UNDER THE WEATHER AS OF LATE BUT IS WELL ON THE MEND NOW AND BACK TO HIS OLD SELF . THIS SET BACK COUPLED WITH OUR DECISION TO EXTEND OUR DATE FOR ENTRANTS CULMINATED IN OUR DECISION TO PUT OUR FIRST HOTSPOT BACK ONE WEEK TO 3RD AUGUST . WE WILL STILL HAVE 6 HOTSPOTS AS WE INTEND TO HOLD ONE MIDWEEK AND OUR FINAL RACE DATE WILL TAKE PLACE ON SUNDAY 7TH SEPTEMBER AS PLANNED . BY EXTENDING THE DATE FOR ENTRANTS THIS YEAR THIS UNFORTUNATELY MEANT THAT SOME OF THE YOUNGER ONES WERE NOT RANGING LONG ENOUGH AND WE APOLOGISE FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE THIS HAS CAUSED BUT AS YOU CAN APPRECIATE WE HAVE THE INTERESTS OF ALL OUR COMPETITORS TO CONSIDER . TRAINING COMMENCED TODAY WITH A SHORT TOSS AND THE BIRDS WERE LIBERATED IN SMALL GROUPS AND CAME AND TRAPPED WELL . WE WILL PUT A TRAINING LIST AND RESULT ONLINE WHEN THE DISTANCE INCREASES . TRAINING WILL TAKE PLACE ON A DAILY BASIS WEATHER PERMITTING . REGARDS SEAN AND WILLIE .
