naw m8, the bird will take pride and place in dad's loft.

On behalf of my family I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the Basics members who took the time to donate or purchase birds in the recent 2 sales which were organised to recognise the Victoria Hospital Haematology/Oncology Day Unit, which cared for our mother Mary in her time of need, and during her fight against Leukaemia, better care we as a family could not have asked for. We hope that the generous total of £5,400 will go some way to make others who are suffering the same as mum, a little bit more comfortable, and the treatment a bit more bearable. I would also like to take this opportunity to personally thank Ian McKay for all the time and effort he has put in to this worthy cause, THANK YOU IAN!!!!!! I wish all the successful bidders the very best with their purchases, and hope they do well for you all. I intend to name the bird I purchased from Sale 2, Mary's Memory in memory of mum. THANK YOU ALL!

I think I have made my point and feelings clear on my original post. I would like to thank the members for their support and pm's. However it was never my intention to turn this into a witch hunt. So I would appreciate if a member of the admin team would now lock this thread or remove it, which ever is more appropriate. Thank You

Prediction please! WALES V ENGLAND

It does not take long for True Fanciers to come to the top, Cheers Tiger,yet another nice gesture.

What a very nice gesture WulDon,

With regards to the current Charity Sale here on Basics for the Haematology Ward that cared for my mother in her time of need, I find it very sad that some folks would think that an individual very close to the cause would bid just for the sake of it. quote Because of an unscrupulous allegation on Ghost bidding The Fifer has withdrawn his bids on Lot 17 and will now revert back to the last bidder who I have contacted This lot will now be set at £200 and will run till the end of the sale as usual I can inform the person/persons making such unfounded allegations, that I travelled to Blackpool this year with Fifer, with the intention of attending Wulldons Frans Zwols sale to purchase a pair of Zwols, unfortunately the sale conflicted with the Basics meet up at the Arena, so we were unable to attend. When ever we noticed a Zwols bird for sale on the auction we decided to bid for it! But sadly due to some one who has no facts to back their allegations, Fifer has withdrawn his bids, which sadly means first a foremost the charity is currently £100 worse off, and a man who has done loads along with others on this site has been denied the opportunity to bid for a bird he genuinely wanted. All I can add is that this as far as I am concerned is a sad state of affairs. To ALL the genuine donators and bidders, on behalf of the family THANK YOU

Morning folks

Good morning
