Sure the price has just gone up a few quid after tarbes would,nt mind some in my loft.

Nice setup rasbull neat and tidy mate.

Wish i did his performance from tarbes this year was awesome as a new starter and aspiring distance flyer just to time one from tarbes in the next 3 or 4 years would do me let alone 5 in the top 30 incredible.Whats the price for his yb must be expensive anyone know.

Heres my new loft only had it since january

Mate had the same problem droppings were good etc sent away for a test and came back with a slight respiratory problem treated for seven days and are flying a lot better not saying thats your problem but you might want to get them tested.

Top post strapper don,t get me started on the immigrants debate would be tapping all day but all your points are valid we send our brave troops to defend our country with sub standard equipment which puts their lives at risk then question compensation payments i think they should get more its a total disgrace gordon brown and his cronies should be ashamed of themselves.Recent case down our way really riled me kid gets both legs blown off by the taliban wants to build a purpose built bungalow in his grandads back garden but snooty locals and council blocked it with minor planning issue for gods sake give the kid his bungaloo he deserves it,got to stop tapping i can feel my blood boiling.

Lashing it down in north cornwall only had seven tosses to 12 miles weather keeps holding me up,they are coming well and only dropped one but my dilema is its my first race on saturday 57 miles from honiton with patchy forecast,do i send them all or send half and the rest next week yeovil 80 miles or give them more training next week and put them all in to yeovil with maybe better weather next week bearing in mind its my first race and i am itching to send some saturday any advice would be good.

i am in the same position van going to train mine up with my latebreds.

Intersted to know what the total cost for a unicon system would be.

Brought a tear to my eye seeing sir bobby introduced to the crowd at his charity match,a great manager and a true gentleman.

Super peformance from a yearling well done julie and dave.

Even from extreme distance bigda like tarbes or barcelona must be a full bin good job my birds don,t live in your loft none left.

Steve get them sent mate if your happy with them,mine have had five tosses to 12 miles,couple more then next week and in to honiton 57 miles to the cliffs on the north cornwall coast fed up of worrying about them let us know how they get on.

Well done alan i know 17 is one of your favourites

Many thanks to dave thornton six yb collected in shropshire 7.15 last night delivered to cornwall mid morning in super condition a first class service i would recommend dave to anybody.

Well done alan a great gesture for a great cause.I bought a son off alans pigeon 17 and he,s a cracking pigeon so anyone buying lot 1 will not be dissapointed.

Guess knowone wants to sell me one then any ideas where the cheapest place would be to buy one.

Same here on the north cornwall coast,was hoping to be ready for the first yb race on saturday but they have not been up the road enough might not be such a bad thing though the first race is usually chaos with heavy losses.

Bit of a long shot but was wondering whether anyone had a copy of alf bakers winning naturally or dave allens widowhood year they would sell to a new starter.You guys have probably read em over and over and there gathering dust somewhere i hear they are a good read thanks frazer.

Your only jealous taffy ;)

Guy close to us keeps van elsacker pigeons don headon from barnstaple,don,t know if these are the same pigeons though.

stray just in nehu08cd1605

Its incredible how tough the racing pigeon is and how quick they bounce back.Had one of my yb come in smashed bad by percy or the wires,every time he moved a clear fluid would leak out which i took it was the infection doused the wound with antiseptic powder thinking i would find him dead each morning i went to the loft but after three days he is roaring around the loft chasing a young hen.Do you think i can train him up with the others or is it better to leave him and train him with the latebreds.

I fly out of morwenstow about a mile from the cliffs on the north cornwall coast lost four yb to the peregrine so took advice from a guy who lives a mile from me to put them on open hole been on it for 3 weeks and not lost any more is this some kind of answer do they get a bit more streetwise or am i just kidding myself and the next attacks just round the corner.

ha ha sorry for swearing
