I think your right Alf. I am sure they will all go at £20. Well worth a punt.

Sounds good Dougie. Maybe a few more could post what they think would be a good price to sell the bonus balls for. Al.

Certainly is, what is he Tommy?

Think that might be my problem Tommy, a few pairs are a bit slow to lay. Not quite as cold as its been but it blowing a gale and bucketing down now, will be for the next few days too

I have 17 pairs down. Got 20 eggs from 10 pairs betweem 9 and 11 days or there abouts. Theres no sign of the rest looking like laying. Any ideas. Is it worth splitting them and repairing? Al.

All the very best Debs, hope things work out for you in 2009. Al.

Has anyone heard anything on the news this morning about Larson traps being allowed to be used to relocate sparrowhawks? Al.

You going to tell us the ring number now

Counting the days till my first eggs hatch

All look crackers

Congratulations Phil and family. All the very best. Al.

Just to say that I have also recieved £20 from Mitch and Merlin. Many thanks again lads.

Cheque arrived today Des Many thanks again for your continued support and everyone else involved. All the very best for 2009. Al.

Josh if its for the rollers I use deurative instead of just straight wheat and the birds do well on it. I think the bucktons has wheat, barley, red and white dari, naked oats and saflower seed. Al.

Well done again Dougie, brilliant!!!!!!!!! Quite fancy Egypt myself.

Many thanks indeed Racer Al.

I am just sorting out some more payments to send to Phoebes trust. From Dougie (Cemetry) and the crew on the Stena Spey rig £750 Phillips sale £70 Albears eye competition £65. That will bring the total raised by Pigeonbasics.com to a fantastic £6782.25 Many thanks indeed to everyone again for their donations, time, effort and pennies. Al.

Well done Cuzzo, also a big well done and thank you to Alan and Alun.

Local shed builders Dougie, It could be better finished but its well enough built. Still got a few wee jobs to finish but nearly there. Al.

Here it is Sapper Al.

Welcome Chris. Al.

Its about 60 mile to the Erskine bridge frm me as the pigeon flies, probably a difficult 60 mile at that. If the roads are quiet its under 1.5 hours by car. I got my YBs coming back from Glasgow last year, started with about 40 and finished with 25 or so. To be honest I know I made a few mistakes along the way so would hope to increase the odds next year. The ones I still have had a few difficult fies (albeit just 60 mile) so I am keen to see how they do this year.

My in laws are in Duntocher which will hopefully make getting the birds down the road a wee bit easier on the odd occasion.

Interesting stuff Hotrod. What age is Karens girl?
