happy birthday doreen

I was wondering if any of the guys in the scottish borders noticed any R.A.F JETS in the area at the weekend as a few years ago i seen at first hand what affect these can have on a batch of birds i was training birds from stow had around 400 birds just let birds go and 2 jets went by these were old birds and well trained and raced everyone who trained that day had very patchy returns birds normaly took around 1 hour were taking 4-5 hours and a lot missing

Before i took ill i trained 3 times a week i took my ybs and ian summers birds i trained early in morning from denholm 50 miles by road to my loft birds getting away around 6 and home by 7.30 we both had around 50 youngbirds and had very few losses the last year i raced first youngbird race i sent 46 after the last youngbird race i had 37 left. will be back racing next year after 4 years not racing and will be doing the same again would have raced youngbirds this year but hawk problem at loft left me with few birds good luck to all get up early and train before the hawks get up

She says you better get a crate of it then auld yin lol

these are only the tip of the iceberg as far as the benifits of honey type benifits of honey and you will get a surprise at the amount of things that comes up and the uses of honey.

2 years ago i got a blue grizzle yearling in a fife bird contacted owner and as i was going to visit sister in fife i took bird and handed it to the guy when i got home that night the bird was sitting on trap looking to get in.another one i got a blue pied hen reported as a youngbird in Alnwick as the guy was a new start in pigeons i let him keep her 2 years later this hen turned up back at my loft

Nothing to worry about stevie birds playing around good toss as they have had time on wing and seen plenty of the surrounding area

are they all coming together stevie

A face only a mother could love lol

Well done Tam McLeod and all others who have timed

do you think the south birds can do 1300 ypm today

Thats no what you normaly say lol

Well it sure aint you the horse is no big enough lol

The poor guy will be talking to himself they are all nutters on here

IT is these silly RULES that hurt the SPORT more and MORE IS IT NOT THE BEST INTREST OF THE BIRDS YOU ARE LOOKING FOR Instead of all the in house squabbles

Well done auld yin

I done this a few years ago 5 mins between them when i got home wife told me they nearly all came together never done that again

I dont think any of the clubs in the 3rd division will mind thet will be rubbing there hands unless the rangers fans do ,do walking away

If this had been any other race there would have been an outcry with such poor returns these are 8 brave birds that overcame this endurance test

It cost far to much money now for the normal guy in the street to go to a match atthe prices now i took my grandson and his pal both 8 years old to see hearts cost around £90 by the time i had paid us in got them a juice, pie, program no wonder the grounds are half empty now cut the players wages were most are over paid actors and the cost of getting in may drop

The only way these snaller couriers can survive is by higher prices or by doing a relay system amoung a few of them IMO
