Did he live on the Wirral?

North Wirral @ Chepstow 121 miles

I have sent you a pm John

where do you live Mark?

Chris Not trying to be funny or difficult here but I would like to know why the sputnik is not classed as being in the loft. John Also john McGee in his video catches his young birds on a board on the outside of his loft Is he cheating?

Chris could you expand on your post a little. why if a bird drops into a sputnik and crosses the pad how is it not classed as being in the loft. I thought the birds could not escape the loft once in a sputnik. john

sound advice wings

Try and contact Gezza

Gezza lives near Prestatyn

Just to update the incident has had lots of coverage in the local and national press yet still led to nothing. Dont think I mentioned a jack russell pup was taken in the incident also which has not been recovered, shudder to think what has happened to it. Pigeons are wonderful creatures and adapt really quickly. Given this happened only last weekend, the other pigeons that escaped the clutches of these perverse individuals, raced this weekend and where first to the allotments for one of the guys and trapped like bullets.

No Gez 750,000 Good luck at the races today great day out Chester Dont get too drunk John

Thanks superstar

Wont be able to reply for a while going to the carribean see you soon 8) 8) ;D ;D

We are at Hereford and have not gone due to badw eather Anyone around that area shed some light for me Thanks

Yeah Gez He needed room for his helicopter. And he is bringing with him all his own staff for the duration. what must it be like to have money

Hoping to get there to see it this year, love watching it more than playing it. It is £50 for a day ticket but if you come out of the course you cannot go back in If I wanted to rent my house out for two weeks for this I could have gotten £1500 a week. Some of the houses overlooking the course are going for £10,000 per week. john

No race Gez? We have our first young bird race this week

Do any of the fanciers on here enjoy a round of golf. We have the British Open on the Wirral next weekend and it is generating a good buzz around the place. All the celebs descending on the Wirral John

an update The local radio stations have been running a story on this the last couple of days along with the police to try and find the culprits. On sunday night an empty shed was burnt to the ground at 11-45 at night. All this and it is not even the school holidays yet. John

Who in the right mind will take the job on. mistakes do happen and birds get let go by some and not by others. You guys can change the advisor but who will volunteer when the knives are too easily out John

Thanks Guys The two police guys where very sincere and as one of the blokes Dad kept pigeons and he himself was an allotment holder you felt he would try and help. as someone said on allotments the pigeons are not yours when you go home for the night they are at the mercy of the social idiots Many thanks Guys John

Yesterday morning on arriving at the allotments I was to find that my allotment had been broken into to. There was some damage to the sheds and siiting shed windows smashed and my pop holes ripped off but the birds where ok. Then the bloke next to me comes up and it seems they had gone on a spree. He went into his young bird section and 6 young birds had their heads smashed in with a hammer or something like it. It did not stop there, the bloke next to him came up to find total carnage, scenes I have never witnessed before. they had ripped off his doors and got into his young birds and killed 30 young birds.... but not only did these b****** kill the young birds they tortured the poor things. They cut legs off and left the birds to bleed to death, they cut wings off two birds and they were still alive. They also nailed pigeons alive to the floor. who in the right mind would do this to defenceless animals. how can anyone get a kick out of this. They must have gone home covered in the blood. The police have forensic evidence but will only get them if they are "Known". I hope they are caught... it is these type of people who progress onto larger things John
