Did you see them before you bought them? hope you didn't pay much for them;if so send them back to where you got them and get your money back.Its very risky buying birds of that age and if they don't look the part you are better without them.At this time of year they should all look like champions,even although we all know most are just average.Don't like to see lads being ripped off.Good luck!

You're correct mate,I had one of the local suppliers on the phone to me the other day wondering if I was needing any heating oil; thats what they are doing nowadays;desperate to sell it,40p per litre and going up every day,she said.Last year at this time it was 32p.Same old story,the peasants pay.

Cannie catch them nooadays

in your dreams

the ones that return on their own are the ones that you want.The amount of doos that go into lofts seems to be negligible,which to me is a good thing;where they go is a mystery,but it's not into other folks lofts.In fact this year i only had one yb stray to go into the stray basket

cats are inquisitive ,especially in new surroundings,save yourself a lot of bother,jug of hot water or cold a couple of times gives them the message.There are at least half a dozen cats take shortcuts through my garden and they never bother the doos now

Maybe the RSPB could help us out;they seem to be able to track their raptors.

I'm not arguing with anybody,just telling you what I read and you didn't read it properly;it says each f---ing windmill is responsible for 300 deaths

Just read a column in the herald to-day regarding wind .farms and the affect that the rotating blades have on air pressure.It seems that the change in pressure can damage the lungs of birds and bats which fly near the blades,not that they are hit by the blades,because the numbers found in the vicinity show no visible signs of injury.The report goes on to say that each turbine is responsible for the deaths of 300 birds and bats in Spain and Germany,however no figures are in the public domain in Scotland.Food for thought.

Was the membership not limited to 50 at one time ? I don't know about now.Did they not race on a wednesday at one time?
