Only got to know George over the last few years going on trips to Blackpool and often he would just turn up at my door with a late bred as a gift just to help me out or he would invite me up to his loft and show me his fantastic birds or his methods. A gentleman of the highest order. Scottish pigeon racing has lost a legend REST IN PEACE BIG GEORGE. Frank and Clare Welsh

have you ever turned a bird south when it has been racing north or north then changed to south midway in the season?

He will be looking down on you Alec

Never been either too many nights out coming up

yes need to get a good score this week falling behind badly

where did you get your cardboard for splitting the nest? Craigneuk's finest cracking birds !!

Steven it is the same in my club out of a membership of 20 lofts only 4 sent to the gold cup and i think the year before it was 3 seems they are happy with club/fed racing to me it is the derby/grand national of pigeon racing but each to there own i guess

He said they were due a delivery today will nip up to Blantyre on Saturday morning

That's the cocks had. Bath the hens had there bath yesterday was up at Tom laws for feeding he never had the kind I was after so bought some clay blocks and a bag of conditioner and also picked up a sales list for the Peter Patrick sale in a couple of weeks Having a coffee then off to work

I like it a lot that bird. An unrung bird from billy allison off a good mealy cock he lost at messac this year

yes Jamie wife and kid's

i gave you a bird out of my section winner and my reims timer george did it manage past the racing or fall by the wayside?

Best place I have ever been to and only for a day was the us virgin islands. Stopped there on a cruise Taxi driver dropped us at a beach it was like the bounty advert the only difference was the wife was running up and down the beach instead of the supermodel. Which spoiled it slightly

Forgot to add got a bird off Davie Allison direct out his fed topper from Ypres Also George and Gareth Rankin have bred me birds for my stock loft Jock Alston has also given me out his stock loft hopefully in the next few years these birds blended together will get me scoring more often in the snfc races When you meet honest doo men they will give you there best My auld man never sold a doo in his life and I will be the same
