  1. when istoped racing in 2003 the was 6 clubs in a 5 mile rance with a member ship of 15 members to 30 now the is some that have just 3 to 5 members the must be something that can be done

  3. true other hobies you get nowt given that my veiw and ive had lots of hobies
  4. will do
  5. thanks i hope he dont think i am a messer but i will more than likeley want late breeds for the stock loft it will be in the summer it should be six weeks or so b4 i move if things go to plan i want to get some of colin cattryse loyd and cross them together i know he is a good flyer i stayed in the same hotel years back in blackpool then buy 3 pair of roland jannsons
  6. do you have is number
  7. chears does he have birds for sale
  8. a fishkeeping mate of mine is on about is uncle who is a good flyer he is called Ken Darbyshire he is from the wigen or st hellens does anyone know him on here
  9. i like the look of thone birds but a lad who lives near me who i met in blckpool sid no one is wining with the birds hes just a mony man now i thought he was trying to put me off them
  10. yeh i won 1st fed 3 lances combine with around 5000 birds in 1993 with a lean beor x stcklebout soz about the spelling i cant spell but i want to go to 2 or 3 lofts ond buy 3 pair from each loft and race the youn against each other as well try to win then if they do ok cross the to form my own strain of bird
  11. i packed up in 2003 with pigeon lung got it in feb that year did 3 weeks in the docs then got it just after the young bird racing was over and was in the docs from 2 weeks i 1st got it in 1992 when just 19 i nearly died but used a mask and had no probs with it untel 2003 so this time i am going to race from a aviery that will have a solid roof and back and maybe 2foot of the sides cant take no risks this time
  12. i know what to look for in a bird no probs with that when i was younger i had the bits and bobs the odd bird here and there had the kosicek (soz about spelling) jansons the slateys what did ok and some kirkpatricks. but then i started spending at the same place mr brian green i had the houbens of him then the van boxmeer jannsons what won from day one. tried the la fabs of a bloke from liverpool but they could not live with my birds my last young bird season had some gurneys what did well as youngters. what i am trying to say its hard buying birds at the start i think i need to find someone who wins flying nateral and look at his birds,
  13. ive won from 55miles to over 500 with the same birds so i know it can be done. i have to fly nateral old birds i like young bird racing and used to win most of the races so i dont want a strain that can win the long ones and when it comes to young birds or even inland old birds i am behind every week. for once i have the time to pick what strain i want and have the cash.
  14. nice mate
  15. i have to race natural due to having pigeon lung so birds will be in a avery i think they could race widowhod. widowhod as been been raced in the uk well over 70 years
  16. 100% agree the is a fare few always in the past raced widowhod cant know i need to find the right birds for the job
  17. i know that but ive seen a few srts for sale in the year books that have won the big races. but i have to race from a avery and go for the long races but want birds that can do the ong races and not be beat every week in the short ones
  18. ive not used them and ive breed some top winners in the past
  19. true ive seen some in the stud book and that just wondering if they can still do the job ive allways had the modern strains in the past but now i want to try distance racing
  20. soz also thinking of the old british strains as will any ideas please will they beat the modern birds
