  3. Have a great time guys and girls , have a safe journey and keep the misses away from the shops there spending the beer tokens lol :emoticon-0167-beer: :emoticon-0167-beer:
  4. A Plews had a good bird other year from a fancier in his fed the guy called them his night flyers must of been some birds as in the right hands they were doing the business been timed by A Plews on what was a very difficult race
  5. he does but hes more Patrick Moore http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/space/skyatnight/patrickmoore.shtml than Patrick Swayze :emoticon-0140-rofl: :emoticon-0140-rofl:
  6. Update bleeding at a minimum now ( probably too much info ) I know the 3 operations I had would make a lot of you squirm so will leave that out lol , not much pain but simple things you take for granted impossible with my other disabilities , lucky for me I have a fantastic partner she's doing a great job and the loft training she's getting might come more in handy in the future lol , thank everyone of you for the kind messages , I'm trying to get back to normal but wont be this week hopefully when I get this thing removed to test me I'll be a bit better but will still have to take it easy as will still be in the healing process
  7. Only chatted to a male nurse about them oh and a lad in next bed knew his dad and grandma lol , nurse seem interested I'm always on hand to recruit new members to the fold lol :emoticon-0140-rofl: :emoticon-0140-rofl:
  8. carrot are very good for birds I use them to take excess fat of birds , I juice add this to water with a juiced orange and the pulp of the carrot I use mixed in the corn with brewers yeast Carrots contain Beta-carotene, which the body converts into vitamin A, is especially important for eye health. It’s also of great benefit to the skin, and the immune and digestive systems. Carrots are also loaded with fibre and water, which cleanse the liver, boosted oxification and plump out
  9. nice pics thanks for sharing
  10. So basically your saying same as me there creating false form and it always bites back , can't beat fresh air and natural sunshine to do most of the work for ya
  11. or should I say by that race the bacteria and parasites took hold in the heated loft and the unheated loft won lol :emoticon-0140-rofl: :emoticon-0140-rofl:
  12. aint there any allotments spare in your area with lofts on ???
  13. the fittest no matter of which loft it's in heated or not
  14. surely they will feel the same effects 4 times a day once when exit loft for exercise in to the cold then entering a warm loft when finished from the cold two times am and pm , surely better to be no difference surely the degree dramatic change is with heating rather than not having it , other points agreed
  15. where's this constant dramatical sudden drop of temperature ????? I have a temperature gauge outside my back door and most days when it's been 10 degrees in winter daytime it's actually risen to 12 on some nights , Warmth doesn't drop dramatically to cause any problem or most species would simply die of shock , as I said birds feathers in a heated loft will actually open there feather up more to regulate there heat , if there not using as much feed to regulate there heat then surely this gives them surplus energy so in effect need less protein in there diet and if not burning it off would be at a disadvantage as would be stored as fat
  16. Surely birds in a fixed temperature loft would be more susceptible to the change of temperature outside the loft no heating or keeping the outside temperature static. So surely the best way is to have a more open loft to both sun and air for maximum health , surely the heat in a basket / wagon will be greater than any loft with heating , all temperature changes are not sudden , rock doves and feral pigeons are in the elements all year and without the need for heating , all tho most wild birds like sitting on warm chimney pots / gas flues to keep warm for what reason I do not know Birds regulate there own temperature anyway via trapping air in there feathers so surely any heating is no more than a fad of the fancier and there's no great proof of its effectiveness , and surely warm conditions would also favour more bacteria and parasites JMO saying it as it is , good birds win not heated lofts or magic potions
  17. Cheers mate will bear it in mind I'm enjoying training our lass up lol
  18. cheers lads

  21. To be honest I was very surprised I was out today , but as soon as I was told , I soon packed up and was at doors waiting to go don't need to tell me twice I hate the places . Although over the years I've had many operations and stuff and many bad experiences, the care I received was second too none great staff with great after care nothing but praise for them , much better than last time was in , I actually enjoyed my stay other than the actual reason I went in there lol :emoticon-0136-giggle:
