PIGEON_MAN

No I got rid of it but can remember exactly what it was like.

If I knew what to do to draw one on here and then put it onto a thread I would,bought one myself years ago after seeing them at Blackpool.

Had a copy of the video,borrowed it to a guy in Scotland,last I saw of it,perhaps this will jog his memory.

The rings over here do store the owners loft number,this is put in when the rings are allocated to the pigeon.

Only a few English birds compared to the rest of the International birds that they are with so Belgiuns etc wont be to concerned what the weather is like over here.

You need to get transfers for your birds off each of the people that bred them for you unless any have your rings on,these then have to be registered in your name at the RPRA,you can download transfer forms off their website,as for a wing stamp sometimes your club will have one you can use or you can buy your own or better still you can get coiled rings with your phone number on to put on the birds.

Think it depends on your club etc on how it works,there was a thread on the hours of darkness some weeks ago but I.m not sure on what the final outcome was,it might be that your best bet would be to take the clock out at 10 and then put in back in at 4,because if a bird came say at 10.25 you could clock it at 4 the next morning and gain 25 minutes.

Must admit it would be better if anything to do with bop was on the same thread.

RPRA should now be putting our side now saying that 2009 is the worst we have ever known for BOP attacks,but obviously not condoning the actions on the poor Peregrines etc.

WHERE are you Danny.

Used to be a member about 30 years ago belonged then to section "G" my distance was about 560 to Great Malvern,I used to take the birds across to Grantham for basketing,won the section 3 years on the trot from Perth.

Have I missed something or is all this totally differanf from what Roland is doing.

No not rubbered just trying to find out some info.on it.

Anyone tell me if these lofts are still flying and who owns them.

Can anyone tell me the secs.name and number of the club where this ones from,Cheers.

Been an objection to our clubs result so cant tell you yet , :X LOL.

Would of thought you could have put the reason why up as well.

NATIONAL FC RING.

And just because its got a Belgium ring on and its a Van this or that somebody in the U.K. would buy it.

Ring originally registered in Ireland,sec then was Mr.R.Bethel 02894 466102.club was the Chimney Corner HPS.

Sec of the clubs number is 07901 570493 a Mr.M.Titley.

Does it really matter whats on the pedigree,I would be be concerned wether the bird for sale had actually bred anything any good.

Well If that was me I would of picked a day when there was no race,wife had to wait until October before we got marriad when the racing had finished,Bye the way Congratulations to you both.

If it was me there would be no need for excuses as the wife knows that there would be NO chance of even asking me to go if I was racing,Sisters boy got married in Italy all the family went Brothers Sisters Wife Kids no guesses as to who was at home because the birds were racing that weekend.
