George IV

Thanks John.

Just back from a weekend in Selkirk. Noticed lots of pigeons (150+) flying about down by the riverside area of the town. Is there a fancier in Selkirk with a BIG LOFT or have these birds flown the great distance from Stobs Camp liberation site a few miles away ? Does Hawick have the same problem ?

Happy Birthday Scott. Keep me a piece of birthday cake. A bit for Davie and Ian also.

Looking good Glenn. Now all you have to do is fill it with winners. All the best for the future.

Davy Thomson would like to thank everybody for their kind comments and birthday greetings. With Davy not being on the forum I copied the messages and gave them to him. He tells me that, although golf was his sport, he dabbled in pigeons with his brother Robert. It wasn't until after he got married that the first loft went up in the back garden, that was nearly 70 years ago and after one house move the lofts are still there yet. His son Ian taking all the glory now, although Davy still gives advice when needed. Forth Club was always a hard club to win but distance racing was the name of the game, flying against, amongst others, John McGillivray, brother Robert and his nephews Bert, Willie and George to name but a few, Ian's latest success was SNFC Falaise 2017 2nd E 3W 20 Open. So they are still trying hard. Its a pleasure sitting listening to Davy reminiscing about the old days, different stories every day. Although he watches the pigeons from the window now he goes to carpet bowls every week where he still picks up prizes!

Very well done Bert. Also all other timers.

Very well done Callum & Liz a great end to a fantastic season. Well done to all other timers.

Well done to everybody who timed a bird on the day. Also all who are getting birds this morning.

Surely the best performance of the weekend. 1st Fed plus another 8 birds in the first 16. Fantastic flying. Also congratulations to the Officials on getting the best race of the weekend.

Anybody notice in the British Homing World this week the Fauldhouse result from Alnwick on 28/04/18. Fauldhouse winner doing 1895 velo, second bird doing 1317 velo. Lanarkshire convoying these birds, Fed winner doing 1493 velo. Outcome result stands.
