Good to see Reims on list .

What is the race programme for 2020 .thanks

Not been to a snfc age for a few years because the inland national s have now taken over and distance racing is a shadow of yesteryear , the modern fancier wants it easier for the birds where the challenge has gone. The days are coming when we won't have 500 MLS for the gold cup.

You watch yourself buff there's no such thing as a wee swally with Oor Tommy , Will miss going but not fit for all the walking , hope everyone enjoys the weekend .

Happy birthday Tommy , Wullie says to take your good lady oot for dinner and he will pay next time he,s over.lol

RIP Jimmy

Hope you recover soon .

Can you get me a pint o milk and a loaf o bread please lol

How did this sale go today .

Who won this week .

Hope you all have a good race .

Vitamin D is good for all things to do with your respiratory tract , Was tested few years ago and mine was fine because I worked outside every day .

Andrew has been a. Fantastic fancier for a very long time even 2 nd open Rennes , Hope your health improves Andrew .

Hi Believe you spoke to my mate who is keen on these so thanks for your reply . Colin grieve

A mate of mine is obsessed with breeding a barless blue made famous by Matt White , does anyone know what happened to his team of pigeons . Thanks.

The obvious question is where did the first one come from lol . Been told this before .

Thanks . You seem very knowledgable on the subject so can I ask where do I start trying to breed a barless blue made famous here by Matt White of Paisley .

That changes the scenario.

Yes basically the same line and into east Scotland but only flew them for one season into Lanarkshire area and they won a couple of races and positions at club level then I moved to more distance racing . Still have a g/son Rolls Royce who bred 5 X 1st Feds and some great club & fed birds but he is blind in one eye and can hardly stand but still enjoys his hens company .

Very interesting reading.

That's too complicated for me lol The cock The hen is from a blood red cock X black hen This cock breeds a barless in every nest , although I think he is more a mealy , Interested what colour I will get .

Let him time in as he has a bird before you and if you would stop another fancier winning just so you can win then get another hobby ,jmo

Only birds I have tried from unc were vandenabelle from Ali McLeod of Billingham and they were top notch , Distance birds are totally different it takes years to build a family due to the high risk racing but some win for some and not others .

Blacktongue young Alfie 1st sect 1st reg 4th open alencon gold cup 540 mls longest flying timed on night only bird in sect on night 2017 4th sect 14th open liege gold cup 530 mls on night 2018 Lol only because he,s mine , Handled a dark cheq at Jim biss loft can't remember it's name but it has always stuck in my mind.
