  1. Just wondering, mothering - law moans a lot, what can I do to cheer her up. :-/ Has twicthy fingers and Knits a lot!- even though no one needs new socks. :o When she cat naps she dribbles from the side of her mouth! Is this serious or catching :-/ She has tantrums often, and this seems to be more prone when her old man goes up the pub. This seems to cause a gnashing teeth and she paces the floor a lot! :( I wonder sometime if these are related symptoms :-/ Her clothes never smell good, and she has an 'Oldish' Smell about her. Enough to make you weep. :'( :'( I wonder what pills and stuff to pour down her throat, and what to jab her with! Indeed is it ok to give probotic and antibotic in the same glass of water, and does it have to be a clean glass :-/ :o Really concerned, as I married her daughter! :o Will the daughter turn out the same.... can't afford private treatment for them of course, and don't know if the NHS can help here. Should I cull :-/, or get shot of :-/, or divoice now? What of my daughter :-/ will she turn out a throw back to grand mother, :-/ :-/ Pleas help as I am a novice here, and any help whatsoever will be tried. No I have never mentioned, or talked to either my misses or her mother about these happening.... I don't know if it normal or not for starters, and last time I spoke to the mother in - law she made a claking sound with her false teeth.... quite of putting and orrying really. I all asked her was 'Could I have a sample of your droppings to take to the vets' :B :-/ :o Her reacation was uncalled for to say the least! ??) ??)
  2. Yep Wiley and Tony W. Both right as far as I'm concerned. Also remember when you get up in the morning, early about 11 30 (lol ) and there are hardly any wild birds flying around.... Not a good day for flying. Further, when you see Seagulls Milling, just gliding around in circles, and even attaining great hieghts, my birds do even go out, let alone tossed - yes 99% of time ok to let out old bird, but I still never chance it. Some say it is because the electricity in the air sents the nits, bacteria, whatever high up and is starting to kill them. Lighten will often not be long coming often. But it is needed rain etc. then as the Bacteria falls to the ground to feed the plant / grass / flower life.

    BOP eating BOP.... well soon will have too.... won't be oat else left .... except a few of us breeding pigeons for them.
  4. Did Pm you.... may have got a little cross wired though Tillo.
  5. Dull, miserable and none stop rain here. Misses moaning (So she's happy), so everything is normal and hunky dorry I guess ;D ;D
  6. Bigda wrote quote '............that's where it all went wrong when feds where founded they should have had total control in all races and been able to go all the way them self with out national clubs as the then feds would have made the races amalgamations for distance racing with sections and regions as is the case just now with the nationals .' I agree entirely. I have advocated , am setting the seed for this very same thing. Say £90 each FED member, and then club fees / fund - raiser etc. are upto individual clubs and members. I am of course being met with hostilety at present. But if one joins a Golf Club for instance they pay£150 or whatever every year before they even hit a ball. A case of 'Little children help mother' I believe. Ok then I get the silly gripe, yes but if a member is in 2 / clubs he gets free birdage in all three clubs. :-/ :-/ Of course, and that is no different in sending 5 to three club, or 15 to one.... But MOST that aren't in more than one club feel that they are missing out! :-/ :-/ :o We must, as far as I am concerned, look after the moher ship first, I.e. the Fed. without that racing would be very hard, except for the so - called nationals! S
  7. Glad I didn't send, and not sending again this week.
  8. We pay £128 all in, that's fees and free birdage. Fine, no prob there. But then to fly the races I'm interested in costs that same as the NRCC or National etc. Might as well just send direct and save the £128. In deed the £128 would in it's self pay for a lot of the races without having to fork out twice. so 10 less at £128 = £1280 divided by the 19 members left :-/ Whereas they could have and should have been fair and every one paid the £130 -£135 each :o Called greed and cutting the nose of to spite the face.
  9. Plus the Club fees etc. and Raffle prizes we donate, and the three money raisers I do a year to raise funds for their' winnings... which again is mostly divided into the sprint and middle distance races. Yep sorry I got sharp... gave them another chance we did... but I am glad I must be stupid.... OR rather acting upon the ligh being shone eh!
  10. As usual Bigda you are deliberately missing the point. Point being that ALL RACES, regardless of distance should be covered, not then say Ah, but as only a few send the Distance will vote that you pay the lot of them races your self.... So it is in reality, WE want you to substiside our races that we are interested in as you ARE A MEMEBR of club, but we vote not to pay another £5 per season to support the races you are interested in! Yes as a club member EWVERYONE should pay the same regardless how many and what distance they want to fly! Another reason why now 7 have left and just fly the NRCC and NFC or MNFC. so now that is £910 they don't get and have to fork out the extra, and another 4 - 5 of us next season will add another £650 that they will have to find... Yep selfish and short sighted that... And yes we will then just pay for the races we enter without the extra subsisties to NOT fly their Sprint and Middle distance races. Yep a clever lot to be sure!

    mollases

    Many still do .... a darn site better than Electro's and that's for sure.... Indeed Mollasses actually do good and help a mite.
  12. None.... and Bigda I have paid regardless whether I send of not. No problem there then.... :-/ :-/ But the others SPRING AND Middle distance Boys won't pay an extra couple of quiddies for me, and other distance men to sen. Now Bigda just who is paying the piper :-/ :-/ ... We certainly are not getting the tune we paid for, and definately are bolstering up theSprint boys, and the Middle distance men. As a club member, fully paid up member EVERY member should have, and are entitled to the say priveledges and benefits as ANY one else. Seem the sprint boys not only want their cake and eat.... we distance boys help pay for it!
  13. I fly distance only... Ok my choice. But what choice do I have when majority vote in one payment for all races regardless of birds sent :-/ :-/ None. So then they say 'But for the distance races over 400 they will not count :-/ :-/ So though not interested, like a few more in sprint and Middle I have to substiside their races? Surely - as last season I sent 10 to Thurso full stop, and no y/b's Cost in real terms £150. I must be a cheap skate too. Paid again this year.... but hopefully will race a bit more, and also y/b's which I personally have little to no time for. So my gripe is 'S fine for me to help pay for your races, but it's Tough crap and bully for us and stuff you regards your races'? :-/ :-/ :-/ Should be that of the £128 collected for the season's races it should be £134 and ALL races regardless what distance. A fair minded and realistic club of genuine members would vote (should vote) that way! :o
  14. Yes, like my dad always said, and I totally agree, you FEEL good music, and yes tears are all in order .... feel sorry for those that don't feel and shed them.

    Ever wonder?

    Ever wondered .......... Why the sun lightens our hair, but darkens our skin? Why women can't put on mascara with their mouth closed? Why you don't ever see the headline: "Psychic Wins Lottery"? Why "abbreviated" is such a long word? Why Doctors call what they do "practice"? Why you have to click on "Start" to stop Windows XP? Why lemon juice is made with artificial flavour, and dishwashing liquid is made with real lemons? Why the man who invests all your money is called a "Broker"? Why there isn't mouse flavoured cat food? Who tastes dog food when it has a "new & improved" flavour? Why Noah didn't swat those two mosquitoes? Why they sterilise the needle for lethal injections? Why they don't make the whole plane out of the material used for the indestructible black box? Why sheep don't shrink when it rains? Why they are called apartments when they are all stuck together? If con is the opposite of pro, is Congress the opposite of progress? Why they call the airport "the terminal" if flying is so safe? and in case you need further proof that the human race is doomed because of stupidity, here are some actual label instructions on consumer goods…… On a Myer hairdryer: "Do not use while sleeping." On a bag of Crisps: You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details inside. On a bar of Palmolive soap: "Directions: Use like regular soap." On some frozen dinners: "Serving suggestion: Defrost." On Nanna's Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom): "Do not turn upside down." On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding: "Product will be hot after heating On packaging for a K-Mart iron: "Do not iron clothes on body On Boot's Children Cough Medicine: "Do not drive a car or operate machinery after taking this medication On Nytol Sleep Aid: "Warning: May cause drowsiness On most brands of Christmas lights: "For indoor or outdoor use only On a Japanese food processor: "Not to be used for the other use." On Nobby's peanuts: "Warning: contains nuts." On an American Airlines packet of nuts: "Instructions: Open packet, eat nuts" On a child's superman costume: "Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly." On a Swedish chainsaw: "Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands or genitals
  16. i like it better when i comew home nissed as a pewt and ravage some poor undeserving poster lol .... well till morning when I have to pluck up courage to put the P.c. on lol ;D ;D Always intend to - have sometimes - turn of and not go on .... But what the heck, get stuck in and give them some wellie lol ;D ;D ;D
  17. And not just football fans, any and all sporting fans, and a great amount of the public. I see the ground is open free for folks to attend, or go and pay respects. Yes, mine and many others thoughts will be with them.
  18. I agree 100%.
  19. Wind with East in it .... no good for man or beast. I'll just let mine loft fly for a while longer. Shalln't even train, let alone race them. Yes the ole cock or hen to keep in averages etc. Another reason I miss the first race or two.... Too many lose too many good birds for both reasons.
  20. Well not really into this topic. Though I will say that what lenwadebob says, and not implied there was more than one that wouldn't let it rest, and sad to say, Timbarra wasn't the first of many disruptive crao, as BW was often the instigator. Fairs fair.... but that is not to say - and I certainly don't know - that that is the casse for Timbarra going again! But often two clash, personalities, or whatever reason, the sad thing is that often it is nit picking and pointless 'POINT scoring and one upmanship. In end, niether party gain oat, and most posters get bogged down reading worthless and senile tripe! Now that is the sad fact! P.s should BW go as well.... no, I see no benefit, only a detrimental happening to the site. have enough of them of late. That you must all agree with! :-/
  21. Shouldn't give a fickled rats *expletive removed* matey. Droppings change with feed, weather, unrest, etc. etc. and are different texture and colour at different times of day and night. Too much is read into droppings I believe. Me! I'd be more interested in whether the eyes sparkled and shone, were alert or they was wearing eye liner. Watch them on the roof tops matey, they they shout out at you if anything is the matter with them! If one is huddled up, fluffed up like etc. tells you more that THAT one has a problem.... possible Toxin or going light etc. THEN in the morning chech THAT birds dropping... as you know where it perches and who's dropping are what!

    hens

    Yep, dale rod to perch on, and a rabbit or gueanea pig left running around the floor. Won't hurt them none, they just nip over to say hello if they go on the floor and of course up they fly. Just a drop leave shelve when feeding and water. If closed up individually of course they only mate / tread then when out which is seldom to say the least if after flying keen to get in. So though some don't care, others do.
  23. Must be loverly to be so popular .. unless like me it's mostly 'Hate mail' lol ;) ;D ;D ;D
  24. http://www.ppcsupplies.co.uk/ Has some interesting assets I feel.
