The company was great as was the craic ,we had agreat day and some good laughs it was just as well i got off at York or i could have ended up phoning the wife to pick me up from Scotland this morning.
Thinking back Robert picked the main pair out of the nest but the deal was that the fancier would race them and Robert would get them at the end of the season.The paiir done really well racing and the fancier was reluctant to let Robert have them but he stuck to his word and this pair turned out to be Madam and Monseur.

I think that was the deal i dont think that the fancier was a household name but i believe that Robert picked them out of the nest as young birds there was a write up in The Gazzete
about these birds back then.
The majority of Robert Telfers Black Jets were stolen from his lofts back in the 1980s.He topped the Lanakshire Fed in 5 of the 6 young bird races if my memory serves me right or it could have been all 6.
Grasshoper i did not say that you were lying i told you what i paid fromUnikon last week.My system was delivered direct from Unikon by City Link at a cost of £10 Where was yours delivered from at a cost of £100.The system is advertised on Unikons website at £495 Who did you buy yours from.
You Lanarkshire lads are lucky to have someone like Gareth puting the time and effort in to try and find suitable racepoints for the birds.With Gareth the birds come first everytime good luck with your race program.

Like you i call a spade a spade and it riles me that somebody can try to rip people off.I could have sold a hundred young birds off the parents of the WDA Bourges winner this year but i told people the truth that i did not have the parents in the loft.
Vincent i have an 11 year old Staffie *expletive removed* my grand children adore her,they are 4 ,6, and 8 years old.I wouldnt have any other breed the bonus is she hates cats.
Koopmans .Koer Minderhoud,Gerrit Lahuis,Eddy Janssens,Marijke Vink,Pieter Veenstra,Marina Van De Velde,Syndicate Lofts and a lot of other fanciers all race De Kanibaal lines of Van Dyck.
