    And it not just 100% they are trying to limit it at that !! The Westminster goverment are happy to let these big conglomerates, banks, financial institution,electric companies rip us of they are all simple to get tax from ,and this fraking Cameron is pushing for it wont be like America ,the ordinary punter wont get the benifit o cheaper fuel they will use as with the oil to shore up their poor economic decisions.
  3. They are all the same they rely on pis--- you of before you get things sorted so you give up ,I just changed my electric supplier on line from Scottish Hydro to Eon cuttin my monthly bill from £145 ---to £114 very straight forward but as you say they are terrible usualy and they say they dont monopolise things ,aye right.

  12. I had a lad out past me on Sun morning to pick up birds his names Arek he is on here ,anyway he reminded me of something i hadnt seen for 20 year Waldie Barron from Banff showed me take the bird fold the head under the wing and place it on its back on the palm of your hand if a hen ,it just lays there if a cock it trys to get its self up ,try it!!
  13. Just been thinking about pairing this 2 cocks i think for the first pairing I have 2 hens i got from Bob MacDonald from Fraserburgh and see how that goes ,but i must say if your bird is anything like my 2 you wont be dissapointed .
  14. Hi jimmy got birds this morning and Arek was out for his ,they are a credit to you lovely birds and they arrived in great condition thank you i would have no doubts in dealing with you again, I would also like to thank G&R Pigeon Couriers and also Saltire Couriers a job well done and all for £40

  19. I am trying to hold of breeding to later on and just as well maybe ,white frost the day and forcast not looking good for next few weeks wind and snow ,we are bound to get snow yet .
  20. This will be my first year racing the birds properly thats with a bit o luck with my health being the way it is but i heard of 2 lads that lost 90 young birds between them ,that doesnt lift my confidence to much but we will see, will 30-40 be enough!

  22. How many youngsters do you intend breeding this year and how many rings have you got ,I have 40 rings would like 30 young left to race.

    Maize

    Is that not just because its not polished that there is powder on it ,i thought that would be cornflour wouldnt dampness be the enemy.
  25. Hi Craig i was talking to a friend who said he got 6 birds in April of last year and he said he could have raced the whole young bird prog with them so if you count back from there pairing,sitting ,rearing ,that would give you a time ,because remember the earlier you breed the more expense to keep them imo!
