  2. Whilst I haven't that much experience - I wouldn't have thought it a good idea to send on a one day old youngster - they wouldn't have developed as big a bond as with - say a 5 day old youngster I have in the past won a channel race with a cock sent feeding a 7 day youngster

  5. From the 30th April 2003 retailers are no longer able to sell creosote to the general public, and from 30th June 2003 the general public will no longer be able to use wood preservatives that contain creosote/coal tar creosote. Where retailers still have stocks of amateur use creosote products after 30 April, they should contact their supplier in the first instance, or their local waste regulatory authority. If members of the public have creosote after the 30 June 2003 they should contact their local council for advice on disposal.

  18. POTASH - is not potassium permanganate The Boulby Potash Mine The Boulby potash mine, situated on the North Yorkshire coast, is the UK's only commercial potash mine and the most important non-hydrocarbon mineral operation in Britain. The mine started production in 1973 and is currently managed by Cleveland Potash Ltd and employs over 800 workers. Mining operations cover some 13.5 km, reaching approximately 5 km offshore and The Crown Estate is responsible for the deposits of potash occurring beneath the seabed. We issue a lease for its extraction and each year we receive revenue based on the amount of potash extracted from the offshore section of the mine. Potash is a generic term for a variety of potassium bearing minerals but it is Sylvinite that is primarily mined in the UK. Sylvinite is a mixture of potassium chloride and salt in varying proportions and at Boulby it runs in seams averaging 7m in thickness at depths of up to 1,500m. About 90% of UK potash is used in the production of fertiliser while the remaining 10% is used in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. However around 60% of all UK production is exported to the continent each year. taken from: http://www.thecrownestate.co.uk/minerals_potash

  22. the clubs only get a mention if somebody writes in and tells the mags about them same as the results - they are only published when club results are sent in there are duplications as sometimes one or the other doesn't print them - also some people buy one magazine and not the other The Racing Pigeon presents the articles in a better format than the BHW and prints more colour photographs - but the Racing Pigeon is restricted to 64 pages the BHW on the other hand has too many advertisements
  23. this was the company :B :B :B
  24. Took these photos at the spring exchange in Holland - they were being sold by some one who breeds croppers
