Be nice to meet you Buster,I,ll have a black coat with a embroidered Pigeon on it.

Any members off to the show today.

DONT CRY DADDY.

Guess you will be CRYING IN THE CHAPEL tomorrow. Guess you will be CRYING IN THE CHAPEL tomorrow.

Are you saying this guy was involved in another race that didnt go well.

This year we charged 55p per bird inland and £2.50 over the water.

This I believe is the way our club as always dealt with the prize money,we pay x amount per bird in the club to send our pigeons,the Federation that we are in charges us x amount for transporting them,whatever is left at the end of the season is split equally between each race 40% 30% 20% 10%,the old bird money is separate from the young birds.

This was an idea our fed had at one time,I dont see youve put any charges down for the lorrys to carry them on or for the drivers and convoyers wages what about them.

Why not put them straight under the racers surely you want to breed off your stock birds.

Andy I might have missed something somewhere but in your first line you said after 10 days you were going to float the eggs under racers,what birds will be sitting them until then.

Its on the way mate,if its possible to do another copy it would be good to get mine back but dont worry if its not possible.

What are you guys thoughts on your feds owning their own transporters,mosts feds down here dont have their own simple because of repairs and running costs plus the fact that 6 months of the year its doing nothing,we get transported by people who own theirs and charge us X amount to go to the race points.Sorry its a bit off topic.

Send me your details and you can have the one I,ve got,Christmas as come early. LOL.

In the issue of the BHW dated OCT.12th there was a transporter for sale in Kilmarnock,just wondering if anyone as any info. on it as there is a rumour that our FED. bought it and was wondering what type of crates it had,and how many birds it carried etc.

The orange one is the older T3 the blue one is the newer version called the T3S.

We have had a standing booking at the Allendale in Albert Road for a number of years now so all being well we will be there again this year.

I believe TONY C a member on here lives in Dagenham I,m sure he will help you out.

Some of us are working at all times day and night.

I have been on at 3.30 am and its showing there are 250 guests looking in,it really does make ya think weather these figuers are correct sometimes.

Not that I know of, but if he as some good birds let me know I might able to scrounge a few off a long lost relative, perhaps.

Could cause more problems as he would have to pay a subscription for his late Grandfather or apply to the region to be excempt from paying.

If you could get it to Malvern today I could bring it down to Cheltenham tomorrow,message me the fanciers details I,ll see if I can get it picked up in Birmingham but I cant promise,only that I could get it to you tomorrow.

Personally I cant see any point in using a dropper as they are known in some areas,if the ybs are taught right from the start to come straight in from training or just flying around the loft there should be no need. JMO.
