Hello.  I need some serious advice from (UK) pigeon people please.

What can I buy my brother-in-law for his 50th birthday?  He lives, breaths and... no, he doesn't quite eat racing pigeons but you know what I mean. I have bought a book but it's not enough.  Are there any accessories available that might be useful?  Preferably something that can be sent in the post.  What about those rings?  I want to be original but I'm stumped.

Any ideas most welcome - thanks.

Thank you Greengrass.  I have looked at those 2 sites and they're great.  Lots of interesting gifts. I'm sure I can find something to amuse him.

Not sure about buying a pigeon though.  I expect he'll be getting one or two from people more knowledgeable than me.  I think I might stick to the hip flask or watch - very 'cute'.  Mmm... Can I say that about a pigeon??

If your having a knees up; have a look at the 'Show Rosettes' on those websites and pick a suitable (or comically unsuitable..lol) one for him to wear; went down a treat at a doo I went to.

Hi Sally. The e bay suggestion is a good one. You can get everything from wall plates, pigeon equipment, mugs to even ceramic numbered door signs with a pigeon on it. (I know cos I got one....wife thinks it's naff so it must be worth getting. LOL) E Bay would be worth a look.
