Valiant Fifer

B C does it again well done!

same thing happening here rab, every two or three nights another one gone sometimes two sometimes three. i'm getting the odd one reported many mls from the loft. this is before i even started training. Ybs dont get the same chance as they did years ago. I'll soon have none left and dont know if i should race them now or just call it a day cause am sick and tired of it. Like some one on here said in a previous post if it was happening to raptors something would get done about it. No other people/sportsmen/women would be asked by anybody to put up with so much crap! All other animals are afforded some sort of protection but not our harmless racing pigeons. something could be done about it but wee all know that i wont because a certain corrupt body simply wont allow it. Their quite happy cause its not happening to them and their pets. Parliament could do something about it but wont, cause their week and really there's absolutely nothing in it for them so wont act why would they, have they got anything to gain ???????????

Well done Billy well deserved! :emoticon-0137-clapping: :emoticon-0137-clapping: :emoticon-0137-clapping:

Clearing up quite a bit since my last post but for how long ?

Well done to the west boys that got them last night and this morning :emoticon-0137-clapping: Still raining heavy here in fife with not a lot of visibility. Some of that small (rain) stuff just goes right through them, theyll be soaked right thrpougj a think.

Lol aye rab, they wid help! The doos tonight were certainly more like penguins. In fact the one a timed ran along the board like "Pingu"! The doo was ringing drookit wet but at the same time it was funny seeing it run fast along the board lol. Probably no forget that for a while!

Got me back a guid yin there Del lol, but then could i expect anything else!!! A hope some mare get blown hame in the morning. Cheers!

Releaved to finally time in at 22.00 tonight dunno how the doo made it street lights on very little visibility and chucking it down! Shocking night here in cowdenbeath west fife.

True m8, but will they ? That is the £64 Million Dollar Question!

At least there still working in andrew, hopefully a few more will work home. Shame for ybs these days deffo dont get the same chance as they once did 30/40 years ago. Its changed days now and we fanciers are in a bad situation not knowing what to do.

Best of luck and good returns to all who sent

Sorry to hear that m8, its happening everywhere. Hope more turn in for u asap I'm sure they will fingers crossed!

I agree m8, yb racing is not important but training in the year of their birth is with out a doubt!

Know how u feel Andy ive bn waiting at least 3wks on the Gem hpe and its also my base mix m8 but for my obs. Ive asked other people to get me it on their travels but no luck. Av heard several people have bn phoning for Gem hpe and they keep getting told a couple of days. The thing is it will only last another day or two then it'll be gone. No xhoice then but change the feeding, dont think thats ideal with only a few days left before basketing for the last channel race. :emoticon-0127-lipssealed:

Which one eric ?

Thats a pity eric but cheers for the reply. I'm hearing that coxidene is out of it just now. Must be somewhere in the central belt where it can be bought. Does anyone know if they stock it at Glenmavis ??????? Any one!

Hi guys anyone know if Craigmillar pet supplies stock Gem Feeding. In particular High Protein Econemy ??? Or anywhere else near me, i'm in Fife. Thanks in advance.

Well done young fella.

Yes well done again to all that sent and timed in from Reims. Looing back at the race now i feel a bit fortunate to have timed two in both making the result. With my 3rd bird home after teatime on second day injured i was none the less very pleased to see him. Cant complain with 3/3 from 570mls its not very often we get full returns these days especially at the distance with so many problems and obstacles. Well done convoyer & controllers i think you got it right! :emoticon-0137-clapping:

Congratulations & Celebrations John & Terry! :emoticon-0123-party:

Sounds good for yb's craig. We used to get that a lot of years ago on the fed transporter. That was back in the 80's dunno why it stopped matbe not enough support. Think al give ma ybs a few of them once a get mine trained out and some experience on thum.

Not surprised at that, but where the get charismatic beats me. :emoticon-0179-headbang: :emoticon-0179-headbang: :emoticon-0127-lipssealed: :emoticon-0179-headbang:
