get both but had problems getting them into the local newsagent so now get the RP online and it is sent via email every thursday morning all your copies are stored for you and no magazines cluttering up the house. get the bhw sent to the house now and it also arrives every thursday morning. have a look at the rp online it is really well presented and very professionally done.
Perfer the R.P. personally. Just started having them again... strangely enough simply because every so often a topic on here mentioned one or the other, or both. To be frank, I feel that the R.P. is more pigeon conscious and the BHW. more Advertiment and 'Name' endorsing. Yes of course 'Writers' have friends etc. but many, too many seem to think it is just a vessel to promote others, and themselves. Thankfully there are time to time some good articles written... most reposted 'Past' articles granted, but still of an interest I feel.
What's best for the birds... forget fanciers ego's!
Chris,who told you pigeon fanciers were normal I always thought they were a breed apart. BHW for me used to get 5 but like all things finances dictate and hate the politics.

Finances defo dictate i use to get the Pictorial but now take it second hand a couple of weeks later
Never had rhe RP but i find the BHW is full of people writing about themselves and promoting there own pigeons instead of doing write up's and results.Also i notice a lot of results dont seem to get published until a certain fancier is in the cards or that just me being cynical? I do like the adverts in the back and allways go there first though lol.
