"Good Morning Sir I,m from ATOS"

Well done lad !! dont worry about cleaning them out just stick some old newspapers or cardboard in the bottom.

Great performances Steven well done, best wishes for 2013.

I am sure that this poor young woman would have been censured by the hospital staff and the royals after the incident, so the poor trusting young woman would have had it from all parties concerned. I find it hard to comprehend why a woman would be taken in to hospital for morning sickness, so I can see why the aussies thought it was a joke,hindsight is a wonderful thing,RIP young lady.

Thanks Steven, I can honestly say that you are one of the most genuine and helpful fanciers I have met,atb Tom

Thanks for the kind words Rob, its been a pleasure meeting you all, its just a pity it couldnt have been a longer stay, and I am pleased you enjoyed the surprise visit. Atb Tom.

To run pools etc your club has to have a gaming licence which is provided by your local council authority they will clarify your questions regarding compulsory gambling and the legalities of it.

It is illegal to force anyone to gamble, monies must not be taken from fees or any other monies paid by the fancier and used for prize monies without the agreement of the fancier, if anyone wants to opt out of flying for prize money it is their decision not the clubs.

A big pigeon may win on a day and distance that suits it, a small pigeon may win on a day and distance that suits it,big and small may win from 40 miles to 600 miles, only the basket will prove any theory.If your looking for a guaranteed way to breed them I wish you luck.

If the crops are bad there should be more grain available for animal feed, as most of it would not be fit for human consumption, I know locally that the maize crop was late being harvested so the grain is poorer quality not picked at the optimum time.

I have tried moxidectin and found it was not as thorough as Eqvalan horse wormer which I have used for the best part of twenty years, the down side of Eqvalan for me is that it will damage the flights (frets) if given when moulting, so timing is important.JMO!! Each to their own.

Have a look on the NEHU website, the usuals are boddys, kev winter,bhw, murray and mills,clares,unikon,Knox,s several pigeon sellers, st claires hospice, Charity auction,and one or two others,also good food and drink.

What benefits will independence bring to the next generation, that must be the priority.

google Ebico, I have been with them for years, best of the lot, and I am not an agent !

SU 12 L 2661 found by non fancier on road at Langwathby,Penrith. ETS and purple clip ring.

I used him this year and I ended up contacting RPRA as he made promise after promise when my clock would arrive, thats when he could be bothered to answer the phone, seems a nice enough fellow but I think he takes too much on.

I took 40 birds down for the anglo scottish as they were unable to hitch a ride,I released them after the solway birds left the transporter.

I was at the Stafford lib site when birds went up,they never even took a turn,straight out and headed north it was good to watch, there was only one pigeon that did not want to leave the basket a cheq cock that seemed to be on its last 2 flights and a gap in the centre of its tail, I then drove down to Gretna the weather was excellent all the way,sunshine and broken blue skies with high cloud and good visibilty, and not one drop of rain hit the windscreen, it started looking darker from Gretna onwards. Well done to the convoyer and the race controller and all who sent.

Does anyone know if all birds offered will be in the pens on day of sale,Thanks

Gretna to Carlisle low cloud overcast light winds none of the fells are visible in any direction.

You should consider what it will be like when your stock pairs are rearing two youngsters each, ie if you have 12 pairs that means your total could be as high as 48 birds in a 7x7 section, I wouldnt think it would be a very happy place.jmo.

Carlisle to Gretna,high cloud, sunny spells,good visibility all around the fells,light northerly wind, was raining very lightly earlier but has cleared up nicely now.

Its rained in Carlisle since 5-00 am and is still raining now, the visibility has been and still is poor.

A loft does not have to face any way in particular as you can have windows, doors, or ventilation on any side of the loft you choose to suit you and your birds.

I saw the report on BBC news last night and went to bed angry,its hard to believe they are so blind.
