what if you dont have any old birds flying out,

roland how far did you fly her ,

how far did you take them

still looking but not had much luck finding the right one thought they were all stacked in order but the all over the place ,,oh and taking a bag full down it burst i fell and a hundred dusty mags went all over the stairs the wife is going nuts ,,, :) im still shifting them ,,, but ill keep looking ,, looks like a bidding war on e bay ,, i found the bushart special one and a looulla leen boors stud mag , some intresting stuff getting found ,

very good if thats your first go your pics well be crackers when u get into it

like what

ok the box is 430 mm high the triangle part is 400mm at back 470mm long and 150 mm at front ,if u notice the to small holes at each side for puting in a littel cain with red band on it to move the bird from side to side , the perspex bit at front can be moved out of way once the bird has settled its about taking your time the bird will stand right if u wait , dont worry about light all that can be done with the soft were ,, if u want ill make you a copy of adobe cs 8 and send it to you but you need a good pc to run it most of the new ones are fine,, http://s830.photobucket.com/albums/zz227/hatchey_2009/ if u need any more help let me no

Can some one tell me when y bird sickness started. I left the sport in 1989 and only going back in it this year. But I don't ever remember any one having this sickness back then I remember paromaxss coming and having to jab our birds but I never had or heard of any one having. Young bird sickness.

Is any body still racing any of the old English familys of birds or have they all gone. I'm talking about the 5Oo/600 or 700 milers.

Lol that's highly illegal. Bakes but if you need pointed in the right direction I can help not that I would ever do that illegal stuff

i got 14 latebreads but wasn't going to bother racing them them as they are very late eg aug /sept bread , is it worth traing them up and giving them a couple of in land races or better just to let them sit,, this is my 1 st year back in them since 1990 ,,

,its gona take a trip to attic, got vol229 jan 1989 in first box loulla have back page spread selling kirkpatrics , worley bird,,and ,, dream come true,, y birds £ 175 each that was some money in 1989,

i got 100s of them use to collect them ill serch through them im sure i will have it ,, ill get back to you on , i have them from the 70s right threw to the 90s , im sure there loads of stuff about the Kirkpatricks in the earlier ones ,
