Homing: Easier flight home this time
ELEVEN members of Todmorden Homing Society had 277 birds at Swainswick for last Saturday's race.
Liberated into a north west wind, the race should have been fairly tough but the wind turned westerly en route and gave the birds a much easier passage.
First to clock and over a minute in front of his next pigeon was Lee Brennan, taking first and seconnd places, with Brian and Sandra Fisher in third. Next week's race is from Swainswick.
Result: 1, L. Brennan, 1494.14; 2, L. Brennan, 1482.57; 3, Mr and Mrs Fisher, 1481.49; 4, L. Brennan, 1479.96; 5, Cullinane and Son, 1479.81; 6, Cullinane and Son, 1479.55; 7, Cullinane and Son, 1479.42; 8, P.
