[quote=710] An old mate of mine, from years gone by, GOD BLESS HIM! Won the section (Northern, I think) twice, flying into Liverpool from well over 800 miles. He was a fellow plumber, who was respected by all. His name was Mick Mullarkey. Sometimes I get the impression, that he is behind me, on the pc, when distance racing comes up. A really great guy! Another great distance guy was the alderman Tom Burton from Liverpool, who when we were kids of 15 years old, would phone him from a near by telephone kiosk out side my house, enquring about early times in some gruelling channel races. And he never once, failed to respond. Different game in them days.
[/quote VIC...mick lived opposite the mosscroft school..... took a drink in the quiet man pub....flew a super cock barcelona joe. was a gentleman like ya self never sold a bird????
Glad I,m not the only one that remembers the super guys from the past. This guy should have received some sort of honour, for the way he supported many charities. But who are pigeon flyers? with the sh** publicity we all get. Annoying to say the least!
Two in the middlewich two bird from messac 370 miles to me and the club is up with em as well .Hopefully if all go's to plan the middlewich birds will come first ,its hard to choose two birds when there all going the same place .
I was only credited with third club, last week, not even second! But won 100% pools, which pays for the birds this week. Just to keep the record straight.

Lennut, If you are a retired OZ plumber, You must have amassed more Brass than Sandhurst ever did. When I was down there, visiting my brother, I was told that the OZ plumbers were better paid than doctors. I can only train my birds locally on a "Chopper" bike. Whereas, I've heard you train your birds, on a "proper chopper". Keep above the flying doctors though! LOL.
