showman

Mornin' all.

Dull overcast but dry with us.

I take it you've tried red band ?

Wet and cold. Just had a snow shower.

I was the one in the white coat !!

Great bunch of lads Andy...the craic was mighty !!

A few guys came up from Dublin to the INFC show in Lisburn yesterday. A great day was had by all, and we later enjoyed our time in Lagan Valley RPS with our host 'Rab' Gore...cheers mate for a great evening. On their way home this morning they stopped in with Timmy & Kiera at their Donaghcloney home. I would think Derek was especially pleased they did, and managed to secure a pair of this successful and highly sought after team of pigeons. L to R : Mick O'Driscoll, John 'Sheppy' Shepherd, 'Rab'Gore, Derek Ennis & the man himself Timmy Mawhinney. Hope you had a safe journey home lads.

Same here, Timmy Mawhinney and I are going down to judge the showracers. Looking forward to it.

Cracking selection again Jimmy. 12-786 is the stand-out pigeon for me.....love the shape of the head on him, and only a yearling. Nice !!

5 sources !!

Was just looking through the advertisers in the 1954 Squills, and it suddenly struck me how many household names within the fancy were about at that time. For your perusal and memories !!

Got this done for my Grand-daughter a week ago. Wow !!!........she's nearly 4, and it absolutely freaked her out.....Santa talking to her!!!.....brilliant. Highly recommended to anyone with small kids/grandchildren......go for it, and watch their little faces !!!! :santa-dance:

Larne show yesterday, with over 450 birds entered............ Best in Show !!

Interesting post billy99. Would it be true to say that chad3646 does not race or even keep pigeons ??

Can't see an obvious problem......the one thing I would try and get info. on is the recommended /favoured gap between the opposing boxes. Best of luck.

Happy Birthday folks. Alex Wight 45 ? Yeah, and the rest !! Have a great day mate

Great stuff !! I hope he has a great breeding season and gets a few youngsters flying out.

Mornin' everyone....hope you have a great day.

Frosty start, clear , due to remain dry.

Happy Birthday folks....have a great day. :emoticon-0140-rofl:
