  2. All the birds are now sold, thanks for all phone calls and PM's. Will have some 2nd round youngsters for sale later on. Wishing everyone all the best for the season ahead.
  3. Following the break in at my loft late last year, I now have too many Cock birds. Some have flown 500 miles and the rest are bred from 500 miles winners. Anybody looking for distance blood then this is your chance. I am looking to pair up next weekend so I have decided to let them go for £20 each, please don’t be put off by the price. They are in cracking order and you will not be disappointed. If you require anymore information give me a ring. Martin Adair (R. Adair & Sons) Flimby, Cumbria. 01900-817158

    Spare hens

    I am looking for a couple of hen racers to use as feeders for my fancy birds.
  21. Fancy Pigeon Shows in the next couple of weeks. Airdrie & Coatbridge 4th November Southport 11th November Lancashire 18th November Darlington 25th November Anybody requiring any details please ask.
  22. Looking at the heads they have a bit of Genuine Homer in them.
  23. Just to let everyone know the birds arrived this morning, they look OK.The driver said he didn't know anything about them, he only drives the van on Saturdays. If it was Tesco’s you would take your business elsewhere, unfortunately we don't have a choice in this part of the country.
  24. I rang the lady that Rose suggested and within 10 minutes, she had rang me back to say that she had located the birds. They were being looked after in a fanciers loft near to the main depot. She said that the driver had forgot to fix on the address label, so they didn’t know where to send them. I find that explanation very hard to believe, from a larger parcel carrier. Lady said that I would get the birds back tomorrow. WATCH THIS SPACE.
  25. I arranged for Amtrak to pick up 2 birds on Tuesday 4th July from Stonehouse in Scotland, and delivery to Maryport in Cumbria. The lady phoned at 2pm to say that Amtrak had just being to collect the birds. I waited in all the following day but when the birds hadn’t arrived by 3pm I rang my local branch, they told me that they were very busy because they had to drivers off on holiday. The gentleman said he would ring me back and let me know where the birds were at. After a further 2 hours they still hadn’t rang me, so I rang them. The man in charge of the depot said the birds were lost somewhere in the system, but they would probably turn up tomorrow. (Remember the 2 hottest days so far this year). Rang my local branch again first thing Thursday, again I was told the birds are still lost and we know that they were picked up by the driver but after that they didn’t know where they were at. I then rang Amtrak’s head office, who immediately put me back through to my local branch, the gentleman in charge then said to me: I wish that I had stop on my holidays, and I am sorry but I can’t help you any further, but we will ring you if they turn up SOMEWHERE. It’s now Friday morning and still no contact, just to rub salt into the wound I have received the bill for the collection of the birds through the post this morning.
