aye ready

scottish north west fed now basketing saturday for a sunday race

ps that wasn't their 2nd toss ever had 10 with them on my own down the length of dreghorn army barracks

mine were away today with the forth and clyde transporter for their 2nd toss from dalkeith came over grangemouth in 2 big batches 200+ in each batch joy to watch them breaking out of the batches before the ones that didn't break head of into bonnybridge and surrounding areas got them about 20 minutes later best of luck to all racing this week and heres hoping they all stay healthy

:lol:

wondering if anyone in the fife area can supply me with the phone number of george hunter of the G&B Hunter partnership from dunfermline thanks in advance martin

what i will say alan is he has covered alot of miles in the last 2 days he has virtually no bodyweight and believe me he was sent with plenty so i think he has been well off his route but i believe he will be a better doo for it, hope you's get your good hen and with him coming in today shows that they are still working away at it

i WISH

cheers lads he's a son of the pied cock that was 41st reims this year so i am glad to see him just proves he's a stayer like his sire and made a mistake but kept at it till he got home

got this bird home at 3.30 today chuffed 2/2

me anaw dougie this was one that i had high hopes for in the future 2yr old never had a night out in it's 2 yrs

sent 2 got 1 the 1 thats missing was 176th open eastbourne but thats doo racing been there before

why would you want to pull them out if the feather is sound and intact i've seen these and normally it's dry blood staining the quill but doesn't seem to affect the bird and it would moult it out in time

great performances from a great doo and jimmy is a true gent gave me a couple of tips this year when i was on the phone to him during the season and i've been lucky enough to time in 1 or 2 birds in the national this year,great fancier martin

steven did your uncle jimmy have the mealy hen at clermont i noticed she was in the reims result

hard to say lewis these are just single birds 3 bird doos would need to work on their own after that and thats if there are any 3 bird doos with them

lillers 3 bird club are with them

not many 1 in amble 5.10 and 1 in alnwick 6.15

bird in alnwick at 6.15 9hrs approx for 370mls rough velocity 1200ypm

don't think their transfered as such because the ring card is proof of ownership but you can register them with the unions in case they get lost

steven i've got jimmy's original mardons which he advertised in the BHW a while back some of them anyway just got a latebred out of the old strawberry mealy cock at 10yrs old and its a stoater

lewis ive got a pair their 13yrs old now and their great for drawing the young birds down from a race

looks good alan up and as far as the midlands with a sw wind then downhill after that saturday looks a better bet

then why when he was selling them in the 70's did he advertise them as ko nipius and not jan aardens and he did advertise them cos my father was one of the first to buy them off him and travelled up to bobs in fraserburgh from central scotland,these birds my father bought were eventually sold onto ireland where fanciers couldn't get enough of them mr and mrs kippax were another who sold them as ko nipius

bob never had the jan aardens he was the first fancier to introduce the ko nipius to these shores
