I always think along these lines without getting to complicated the goal of inbreeding is to increase uniformity, the goal of line breeding is to increase the contribution of a common ancestor. Good post.

The problem with a lot of football is the faceless groups who are destroying our game for profit. It has become clear to most supporters that certain clubs are or were run by groups of individuals who have trusts located in offshore financial havens, one must ask, why ? Wary supporters'groups now ask more questions and want all investors to be disclosed, one has to wonder why these individuals are reluctant to have information about themselves revealed mostly greed. Supporters understandably want transparency. however the other side of the argument is that full disclosure could discourage investors when clubs are desperate for funds. These sometimes faceless individuals started to spend money they did not have which led to others following suit the road to ruin.

Former Bolton manager Owen Coyle on BBC Radio Scotland"It's an unbelievable night for Scottish football. Celtic have just taken care of the best team in the world. That's why we love this game."

The letter of the law is not as important as who holds the power, in any real life situation there is a gap between law and justice this dog owner is another victim who will feel let down by laws that are able to be manipulated to suit those in power.

Yes Jock has been consistent over a the years and deserves all the praise, consistency is harder to achieve than one big win and more respected in my book.

Bird now home ( a yearling ) Thanks to Michael

Bird has been here on open bowl three days injured by BOP is recovering can be collected or phone 01383513655

Many thanks to Michael for collecting my bird from the ladies at Murphy Marina. have sent the girls a bouquet of flowers via Interflora as an appreciation of all their efforts. Michael said the girls had obviously saved the birds life by retrieving it from the water when it was being attacked by other birds. They then fed it on bird seed and gave it water, how about this for super kind action from non fanciers. This bird is now being looked after by Michael.

Red Mite, are difficult to eradicate because they survive for up to six months between feeds they feed mostly on the blood of the birds also feathers and skin, after a feed they hide in cracks under roof felt etc, they will lay eggs and return to the birds during the night so you don’t always see them mites can transmit disease to your birds as well as lowering energy levels racing will be effected. Go into your loft at night mite are red after feeding prior to feeding they will appear grey. Lots of good products on the market to eradicate Always treat any second hand nest boxes perches etc that you are putting in your loft and this does not only apply to wood.
