Leroy

i can be there in 10 minutes

if i get you the number for the place i know on wigan road, would you know whether it's the right place by speaking to them? how soon do you need it?

it could be the one on the wigan road out of leyland, there's an old farm that has a pet shop and shed shop, next to the pet cemetary before you hit the railway bridge on the way to euxton - any chance???

is this the same bird as delboy is advertising???

I'll be a couple of miles from there tomorrow evening if no-one else can get there Lee

the hybrids are called Kellas cats derived from the estate that the first ones were captured on. I'm part way through reading a book on them, by a woman that caught some, kept them and bred off them.

thanks for the link

i totally believe this, been studying sightings for years, there are loads of books on the subject and a couple of websites. Glad you have sen one...if only i had too... any chance of posting a link???

i remember the film from years ago, it wa good, but i seem to remember it being quite sad!

cheers ;D

it looks to be about 200 miles

East Lancashire to Falkirk

Spoken to the owner again today and he wants the bird feeding up and liberating, what do you reckon? It's a YB, quite thin, and presumably still has some distance to go, what do you all think her chances will be?

Bird collected! Nice to meet you Kirst, let me know if you want a couple of white doves for that dovecot Lee

spoken to the owner on telephone, not sure yet how interested he is, but have agreed to collect the bird from the non-fancier and decide from there. space creator, i will send you a PM - look in the top right corner of your screen it should say (1 new) Lee

i can get to beacon fell if needed to collect the bird, anyone know what the owner wants to do with it?

Steve, I live in Burnley and travel alot to Preston, if it's anywhere along the M65 I wont be too far off if it saves you a journey!! Lee

Can i just say that as a new starter and hoping to race for my 1st season next year, this is an excellent thread and very helpful. It has changed my mind as to how i am going to start! Thankyou everyone who has posted Lee

Hello peeps, full name is Lee Hammond, and having never raced my birds I have no problems in telling you that I live in Burnley, somewhere.......

Thanks for taking the time to catch this bird and reunite it with it's owner. If the owner isn't on here, there might be someone who is that lives near you and can collect it. keep checking back. Lee

thankyou, much appreciated

thanks mate, do you have any contact details you could PM me please?

Welcome, and enjoy the site. The guys and gals on here know their stuff, so sit back and watch the threads, it's a font of knowledge! Lee

hi guys, the time has come for me to join a club as I will hopefully race my first season next year, but, which club do I join? I'm looking at racing longer distances, but starting off with young birds for the first season. Do I join a local club to start with, then look at the NFC later, or just join the NFC? Does the NFC have YB races? If I don't join a local club how do I get my birds into a race, like, marking station etc? sorry to ask what are probably obvious questions but can't seem to find the right info anywhere else! thanks in advance Lee

whereabouts are you please mate?
