BULL

ah but he does not drive      as far as im concerned he can walk this bird got home he never let me know he put clip ring on tossed it its here

Quoted from nogin

BULL

you left some out there

If I get a bird in that will not clear and is reported the first thing I ask is the bird valuable if not is it worth your time and trouble to arrange transport or, you can leave it here, myself, I like to get my own back as mistakes happen with humans and birds.

i dont want it i took it back to near its home fancier put clip ring on now back here he cant be bothered

Report it chris so he has to take action, sure he can get a bus from there to you!
Probably trains from Magor services!

im with you on that chris..theres 2 sides to the coin 1.i phoned a chap his bird was hit by a car ...a very nice chap indeed he was happy to be informed of  what happened 2 it , ive sent his ETS ring to him and crushed its life ring..........on the other hand i reported another not 20 miles from here he phoned when i was unavailable and spoke to my son telling him to tell me 2 kill it coz its banged its wing......out of order???????  also i must add  nearly everyone whose birds ive helped repatriate have been brilliant and courtious bar 1.....

Chris with you packing in this now makes you a non fancier report it and make them pay twice when the union repatriates it .......pete

pigeon racing is a sport not a hobby £100 per club tax to goverment passed on to councils to get rid of ferral birds which includes race birds simple but i could be wrong

chris nobody is saying your not being helpful,but a fancier who cant be arsed [for want of a better word] picking a stray up off you after youve been out of your way with the same bird once before in my book doesnt deserve helping..........pete

i thought that it was because pigeon racing wasn't recognised as a sport that club premises became liable for business rates because sports clubs are exempted....if i'm wrong..i'm wrong but thats what i thought.

i know what you mean mate,ive just had a gb yb drop in rang the owner,the guy was no help at all,i lost 13 yesterday hope i get them reported losing them spoilt my week end

if members stamped there birds "bin me please" the RSPB etc would go mad but thats basically what some are doing by not wanting them!

i lost 20 out of 30 ,the 2 that have been reported 1 is in durham and 1 in essex [both will be picked up one way or the other]however if all 20 got reported thats me out of it ,regardless of all the talk about claiming your birds back, no one can afford to get all the birds back,however manners cost naff all,with the cost nowdays of getting birds back the rules must change to reflect this

I agree Chrisss the rule does need changeing but the fossils at the top won't allow it!

where in durham mate

further 2 calls now he can pay to collect

8 phone calls no call backs  put bird to whu gail did not seem happy when i told her i was non fancier but im not am i i gave up she was sharpe to the point of rudeness   you reap what what you sow so now lets see how long he takes

well chris you did everything but gift wrap it for him he has had more than enough chances....pete

he he 30 quid

Has the bird been claimed now Chris?
I must admit your comment ref Gail at the WHU is certainly out of character, she has always been polite to me and beleive me, i've thrown her some curve balls at times.
