THE FIFER

AS FROM TOMORROW SATURDAY 15TH APRIL BIRDS CAN BE LET OUT, BUT NOT TO BE SITTING ABOUT ON ROOFS ETC. SORRY ABOUT TIMES I WILL GET BACK TO U HOW LONG THEY CAN GET OUT FOR

birds can be let out for a couple of hrs a day starting from tommorow but not to let them sit about the roofs,

ITS STILL UP TO UR DELEGATES TO GET IN WITH WHAT THEY WANT AND IF THE MAJORITY TELL THEM SO THEY MUST DO IT, AND AS FAR AS SHU NOT KEEPING UP TO DATE THEY WERE WELL AHEAD OF THE RPRA REGARDING MEMBERS KEEPING THERE BIRDSIN, LOOK AT THE ANSWER CLOCKMAN GOT BACK FROM THEM WHEN HE ASKED WHY THEIR MEMBERS WERE LETTING THEIR BIRDS OUT, ANSWER " DON'T KNOW" IS THAT WHAT U CALL KEEPING UP TO DATE. ANYWAY LETS NOT GET INTO THIS, LET'S CONCENTRATE ON GETTING THINGS BACK TO NORMAL. BUT WHAT WE NEED IS TO GET OUR DELEGATES TO DO WHAT WE THE MEMBERS WANT AND NOT WHAT THEY WANT, THEY ARE MESSENGERS.

CHEERS MEALYBAR,I HAVE FOR A LONG TIME SAID THE SHU SHOULD BE ONLINE, JUST TAKE TRYING TO GET THEM ON THE PHONE IT'S NOT EASY, YES I AM 100% FOR THAT, I WILL MAKE ENQUIRIES, I WILL HAVE A CHAT WITH THE SHU FIFE DELEGATES ON MONDAY TO SEE IF THEY CAN GET ON ABOUT IT, I WAS JUST SPEAKING TO LINDA BROOKES TODAY, WILL BRING IT UP.

CHEERS JIMMY I THINK ALL GOING WELL WE SHOULD GET THE OK SOON.

CHEERS ROBERT AND ALL THE BEST THIS WEEK-END

I AGREE THEY SHOULD BE ONLINE, BUT AS U SAID THEY SPENT MONEY ON COMPUTERS, YES THEY GOT A TELLING OFF FOR DOING SO, SO MAYBE THIS IS WHY THEY ARE NOT SPENDING ANYMORE, IT DOES COST MONEY TO RUN WEB-SITES, BUT AS SAID BEFORE GET ON TO UR SHU COUNCILORS IF U WANT THEM ON-LINE, THEY ARE THE ONES WITH THE AUTHORITY NOT THE OFFICE STAFF.

IF U WANT TO KNOW IF THE SHU ARE ON LINE IT'S VERY EASY TO FIND OUT, JUST ASK UR SHU DELEGATE, THEY ARE THE COUNCIL THEY SHOULD KNOW, IF NOT THEY CAN SOON FIND OUT, PERSONALLY I DO NOT THINK THEY ARE, AND I AGREE THEY SHOULD BE, BUT ONCE AGAIN ITS UP TO THE MEMBERS TO TELL THEM WHAT THEY WANT, IF THEY ARE TOLD BY THE MEMBERS OR COUNCIL THEY DO IT.

THERE NOW U ALL HAVE IT U MUST GO BY THE SCOTTISH EXECUTIVE NOT UR UNIONS OR OFFICIALS OR ANYTHING ELSE, ITS THE LAW,

AGREE 100% HYACINTH,AND I THINK EVERYONE KNOWS THIS, I AM REALLY VERY SURPRISED AT SOME OF THE FANCIERS, AS WE WERE SUPPOSED TO BE SETTING AN EXAMPLE IF THE WORSED HAPPENED, BUT THERE U GO, IT WAS IN THE PAPERS WITH A MAP OF THE RESTRICTED AREAS AND IT WAS ON TV, ALSO HERE ON THE FORUM YET THERE ARE EVEN FANCIERS ON THE FORUM SAYING THEY DID NOT KNOW THEY WERE TO KEEP THERE BIRDS IN, SOME EVEN SAID THEY WERE TOLD TO LET THEIR BIRDS OUT, BUT TOLD BY WHO?????

THE SHU MEMBERS HAVE BEEN INFORMED REGARDING KEEPING THEIR BIRDS IN,AND RPRA MEMBERS WILL BE GETTING THE SAME FROM THEM, AND AS LONG AS THE RESTRICTIONS ARE IN FORCE ANYONE RPRA OR SHU MEMBERS LETTING THEIR BIRDS OUT ARE TAKING A BIG RISK AS IF THEY GET FOUND THEY WILL BE IN SERIOUS TROUBLE FROM THEIR UNIONS, AND WE WILL ALL BE IN TROUBLE FROM THE SCOTTISH EXECUTIVE. LET'SW BE PATIENT AS WE COULD BE GETTING RESTRICTIONS LIFTED SOON.

RP HAS BEEN THE BEST READING FOR A LONG TIME, I BUY BOTH BUT THE RP GIVES ME MORE READING.

WELL DONE T_T GREAT VELOCITY, "MUST HAVE BEEN IN A HURRY TO GET OUT OF POMPEY" LOL.

SUARE_PEG THE GOVERNMENT HAS ALWAYS SINCE THE FIFE FLU DRAMA MADE IT CLEAR THAT BIRDS IN THE ZONES MUST BE KEPT IN,

WHO TOLD U TO LET THEM OUT FIFE-KING

I THINK ANY FANCIER WHO HAS BEEN LETTING THERE BIRDS OUT SHOULD BE BANNED FROM MIXING THEM WITH OTHERS FOR THE 06 SEASON, AND IF THIS WAS GETTING OUT TO DEFRA I THINK WE WOULD ALL BE STOPPED RACING, NOT KNOWING THE LAW IS NO EXCUSE IN THIS COUNTRY, IF A FEDERATION KNOW OF ANY OF ITS MEMBERS WHO HAVE BEEN LETTING THEIR BIRDS OUT THEY SHOULD BAN THEM FROM RACING, THESE BIRDS HAVE BEEN OUT DURING A PERIOD WHEN THEY WERE ORDERED TO BE KEPT IN, BY THE GOVERNMENT. I THOUGHT DURING THIS WORRYING PERIOD US PIGEON FANCIERS WERE GOING TO SHOW AN EXAMPLE TO THE PUBLIC THAT WE WERE RESPONSIBLE PEOPLE,

WE ARE SO CLOSE TO GETTING BACK TO LETTING BIRDS OUT AND RACING, PLEASE DO NOT SPOIL THIS, IT'S UP TO CLUB OFFICIALS TO MAKE SURE MEMBERS ADHEAR TO THE RULES, IF THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON THEY SHOULD FIND OUT FROM THEIR FEDS, IF THE FEDS DO NOT KNOW WHATS GOING ON THEY SHOULD FIND OUT FROM THEIR GOVERNING BODIES, BUT LET'S FACE IT IT HAS BEEN IN TV IT HAS BEEN INTHE PAPERS IT HAS BEEN ON THE NET, AND ITS IN TODAYS PAPERS TELLING U THINGS ARE GETTING BETTER, BUT, THE RESTRICTIONS ARE STILL IN FORCE, WE ARE ALWAYS ON ABOUT THE BAD PUBLICITY WE GET WITH OUR BIRDS, FANCIERS NOT DOING WHAT THE POWERS THAT BE TELL THEM IS ONLY GOING TO MAKE THINGS WORSE, THINGS ARE LOOKING GOOD DON'T SPOIL IT.

PLENTY ADVERTISING SPACE ON THE PIGEON TRANSPORTERS GOING DOWN THE ROADS EACH WEEK,

THE MONKEYS USE PG TIPS -LOL

THEY WHO ARE LETTING THEIR BIRDS OUT AGAINST ORDERS FROM THE SCOTTISH EXECUTIVE ARE LUCKY THERE ARE NO MORE REPORTED CASES, AS IF THEY DO GET MORE, THOSE BIRDS WHICH HAVE BEEN OUT COULD BE ORDERED FOR A CULL.

don't think he does.

I AGREE THERE SHOULD BE A CULL OF WILD BIRDS AS THEY ARE GETTING OVER POPULTED, AND ARE THE SOARSE OF BRINGING IN THE VIRUS AND SPREADING IT, IF SOME FARMERS CHICKENS GET IT HE WILL BE MADE TO CULL ALL HIS BIRDS SO WHY DOES WILD BIRDS GET AWAY WITH IT. ARE THEY MORE IMPORTANT TO THE PUBLIC THAN HEALTH AND THE POULTRY INDUSTRY./ AND WHY ARE THERE SO MANY WILD BIRDS LYING ABOUT THE COUNTRY DEAD, I THOUGHT THE RSPB WAS LOOKING AFTER WILD BIRDS,

until we get word from the scottish ezxecutive, they say if no more birds with the virus, some can be lifted by the 20th april others 30 days after put in force, i have e-maild u the 2 letters one from the scottish executive to shu, and one sent to me from shu, they are sent to all feds in the restriction zone, i could not get the letters to come up any bigger, see what u can do with them, (you pros, must get some more tution from u craig) all the best pal and thanks.

those who let their birds out during the restriction can be made to isolate them for 3weeks.

LETTER FROM SCOTTISH EXECUTIVE TO SHU
