  1. I have heard of quite a few birds into Fife, from the Fed Open from Wakefield, 1st one I heard of is 13.23http://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif
  2. Thought I would start up a thread to ask PB members their views on joint convoying. Regularly we see big transporters all heading to the same race point with birds that are all heading the same direction home, and these transporters are almost empty. Would it not make sense for Feds to get together and discuss joint convoying and joint liberations. What are your views? What are the advantages? What are the disadvantages? Thank Youhttp://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif
  3. This still wouldnae stop lorries going to lib points almost empty Davy, http://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif thats why I believe time has come to look into joint convoying, what do you think m8?http://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif

  6. totally agree, however, surely we need to consider joint convoying, how many transporters go down the road almost empty, to the same race points, and birds heading the same way home, would make sense to liase with other Federations, and convoy as one, and liberate as one, and as for having 2 federations in 1 location, that needs to be addressed, so there are other options, rather than continually increasing fees and putting people out the sport all together. This proposal has been tabled before, and as I said, it died on it,s feet, so I don,t see it being a starter, if I remember right, it was only about 4 or 5 that voted for, and the majority against. One good thing about proposals like this, it certainly encourages people to attend meetingshttp://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif And I have regularly supported fed sales, as well as every other local club, I have not attended dances, simply not my thing. Hope the wee hen comes home fast todayhttp://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif

  9. Firstly I would like to say I did not attend any pre AGM meetinghttp://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif We all know that most Federations are struggling to make ends meet, and monies are needed, I was one of the 15 fed members who put a late bred into the recent Fed sale, and also bought one, so maybe if more of the fed members supported money raising events such as fed sales, this would help, With regards to every member paying a one off fee, this in my opinion will not happen,as was proved when it died on its feet at the AGM, the thoughts of the members were, why should some one who flies 3 or 4 birds per week, supplement those that fly in excess of 40 to 60 birds a week. Also we need to look at our membership, of which the majority are OAP, so to make such drastic increases in fees, would result in some if not most, leaving the sport they enjoy. Then what do you do?, increase the fees further to meet the shortfallhttp://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif I am fortunate, because I do work for a living and could afford to pay, but I believe in looking at the bigger picture, and consider those that could not. In saying all that, I do not know the answer, but as I have said before, if members supported Federation sales, this would be a start. This is simply my opinionhttp://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif
