Probably about as good as my Greek, non exsistant LOL The SHU take the NL rings on there strays page I've emailed them as well. Knew someone had posted on here about some missing pigeons with NL rings.

Found South Queensferry.

Thanks for that, spoke to Secy and he is dealing with it. Now got the other three reported to sort out.

SU08B1895 with a non fancier in Shropshire.

Found by non fancier GB06N55739 wearing ets ring. Will report it to RPRA tomorrow, but if anyone recognises it let me know. Thanks Joan

Thanks for the replies. Lady in Wales bought one as a birthday present for the OH but he said it wasn't allowed in his club.

Are clubs allowed to tell members they can't use ETS?

Hi, Glad to hear you got the ets sorted out. Useful number to keep handy. Good luck for Saturday. Regards Joan

Hi, We have had an enquiry looking for information on a trophy that was stolen during a burglary in Southend Essex. Details I have are from the investigating police office. The trophy for the 'Homing pigeon special prize' awarded to T Coughlan by Lady Astor. The relative of the owner who was in posession of the trophy believed the date of the award was around 1922 to 1928. They are looking for an exact date. Any help would be appreciated. Regards Joan

Hi, sent you a PM with contact number, hope it is of help. Joan

Hello Lee As I'm in Scotland and the pigeon is with a nonfancier in Watford I don't think there is any chance of anyone meeting you half way unfortuneatly. If you can confirm any other details about the pigeon, ie other ring colour etc, I will pass your name and number onto the vets who are holding the bird for you. Don't know if there are any charges for treatment (they didn't say if it was injured or not) but I'm sure if the pigeon is yours that won't be a problem. ps had someone claim a pigeon in the past that wasn't there's, thats why the questions.

White pigeon RHG07S37 being held at a vets in Watford been there since 22nd Dec 08.

Just had a text with the correct number NPA06-B2817 Have emailed the NPA with the correct number so here's hoping. Being kept by a non fancier.

Glad he made it back under his own steam. Goes to show they don't all go down to wires, hawks and weather.

We had the same thing happen with a bird coming home after 2 years in perfect condition mid way through the breeding season. Other fancier actually reported it lost and phoned us to have it back. ??)

I have emailed the NPA but just thought I would put on here as well in case anyone recognised there own ring number. Pigeon is in Ayrshire.

Ayrshire at Tow Law.

Got 5 out of 9 from Otterburn, most club members still waiting for over half there birds. Suppose a bonus was we got one of the twenty dropped at Kelso back.

Ayrshire liberated 11am at Otterburn

Congratulations Mum and Dad. Welcome to the world Wilson xx

Hi Bart, I would prefer it if the birds could fly a straight line home along the west coast, but for some that wouldn't be a challenge. Any way its the pigeon men that decide the routes not there wifes. Now dogs is something else at least on that subject I can say something sensible. Graham our birds fly in Kilwinning Homing Society. Like most clubs there used to be lots of members but not any more think there are about a dozen now, if that. All I can say is I am glad this years training is about finished, lets me save up space for the bakers buns next year. LOL

Might stop a the bakers before going to Carnwath then me and my friend can have something while the birds settle. Hi rembrant, he goes South with the pigeons, though the young birds have been as far south training as they have racing so far.
