THEY HAVE'NT APPARENTLY WHEN YOU PHONE AMTRAK FROM ML3 AREA YOU ARE SENT TO THIS OTHER COMPANY SAME PRICE

NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS GETTING BIRDS COLLECTED BY AMTRAK UNTIL THIS WEEK .I PHONED THE BELLSHILL DEPOT ON MONDAY MORNING TO GET 3 YOUNG BIRDS PICKED UP FROM PIGGY AND GAVE ALL OUR DETAILS AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WOULD BE PICKED UP THAT AFTERNOON NO PROBLEM MMMMMMMMMMMMM!!! STU'S WIFE PHONED ME THIS MORNING TO SAY THAT AMTRAK STILL HAD'NT PICKED UP THE BIRDS SO I CALLED THE LOCAL DEPOT AT 11 O'CLOCK THIS MORNING AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD LOOK INTO WHAT HAD HAPPENNED ANS CALL ME BACK FINISHED WORK AT 2 O'CLOCK AND STILL NO WORD FROM THEM SO DROVE TO THEIR DEPOT IN BELLSHILL ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT THEY ONLY DEAL IN G POST CODES NOW AND DONT PICK UP ML3(LANARKSHIRE) BIRDS AND IT HAD BEEN SUBBED OUT TO ANOTHER COMPANY UP THE ROAD SO WENT TO THEIR DEPOT TO BE TOLD THAT THEY COULD'NT FIND ANY DETAILS OF THE BIRDS???? SO ANOTHER CALL TO STU'S WIFE TO LET HER KNOW WHAT HAD HAPPENNED AND TO SAY THAT I WAS GOING TO TRY AND ARRANGE FOR PICK UP TOMMORROW ;) 10 MINS LATER SHE PHONED ME BACK TO SAY THAT THE GUY FROM AMTRAK WAS THERE AT HER HOUSE COLLECTING THE BIRDS AT 6.45PM TONIGHT SO I THANKED HER FOR LETTING ME KNOW AND CALLED THE BELLSHILL MOB AND THEY DID'NT KNOW WHAT WAS GOING ON???????? MAYBE I SHOULD SAY A WEE PRAYER TO MAKE SURE THEY ARRIVE TOMMORROW I KNOW THEY WERE PICKED UP BUT WILL THEY ARRIVE HERE??? WATCH THIS SPACE ;)

I THINK IT IS BEGINNING TO LOOK AS IF ALL WE NEED IS A NEW TRANSPORTER AND ALL OUR WORRIES WILL BE OVER BUT I'M AFRAID WE HAVE A LOT MORE PROBLEMS THAN JUST GETTING A NEW TRANSPORTER TO SORT OUT!!!

GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE FOR NEXT WEEKS RACE ;D ;D

I DONT THINK IT WILL BE EASY BUT I DO THINK WE REALLY HAVE TO TRY AND GET A NEW TRANSPORTER AND NEW BASKETS.WHATS THE POINT IN THE FED THROWING AWAY GOOD MONEY EVERY YEAR ON NEW WICKER BASKETS THAT WE PROBABLY WONT BE ABLE TO USE ANYWAY IN A COUPLE OF YEARS TIME???SURELY THIS MONEY WOULD BE BETTER SPENT USING IT TOWARDS ANOTHER TRANSPORTER WHETHER IT BE NEW OR NEARLY NEW???

I WAS RESPONDING TO HOMER49'S POST ABOUT HIS VERY GOOD FRIEND WHO DOES'NT HAVE A PC!!!

I THINK WE WERE 1 OF THE EARLIEST IN SCOTLAND TO FINISH RACING : : :

SEE ROSE WOMEN CAN LIKE OTHER SPORTS IF ONLY YOUZ WATCH IT ;) :P ps JUST MADE SURE THE WIFE WAS SLEEPING BEFORE I POSTED THIS :B :B :P :P

ANYWAY THATS THE OLD FIRM FINISHED WITH FOR A WHILE A BIT LIKE RACING UP HERE SO LETS GET BACK TO MORE IMPORTANT MATTERS ie THE RYDER CUP IT'S LOOKING GOOD FOR EUROPE NOW BUT YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN THE SINGLES TOMMORROW : : ;D ;D ;D ;D ;DTHEN AGAIN I'D BE SHOCKED IF WE BLEW IT NOW :o :o :o

GAY MEALY I THINK INVINCIBLE SPIRIT SAID OLD BIRDS ;) ;) ;)

TONY AT LAST SOMEBODY ELSE WHO AGREES WITH ME THAT THIS IS THE BEST THING SINCE PIGEON RACING WAS INVENTED ;) ;)

NO I DONT THINK SO CHATRACE THE BIG DOO LOFTS ARE ABOUT 12 TO 15FT HIGH AND ARE USUALLY TIN SHEETED TO THE TOP SO THEY ARE FIRE PROOF AND EASY TO CATCH SOMEBODY ELSE'S PIGEON ;) ;D ;D ;D

IN SCOTLAND THEY ARE CALLED POUTER LOFTS OR BIG DOOS LOFTS AND YES THEY DOO TRY AND CATCH OTHER PEOPLES DOOS ;)
