To get a true distance you would need to PR1CK on a map (as you would a loft) the central point of the boundary, get a loft number/ long/lat for that point (from the RPRA) then request a distance from that point to your loft. lol had to write PR1CK like this as it came out as expletive removed

Wind kept me awake all night.............................. no more brussel sprouts for me.

Some pigeons pushing through their last flight will have watery droppings for a time.

I found going back through my records that hardly any early bred youngsters made super old birds.

357 days x 4 sections to clean out = 1428 times my scraper will be used. I dont think it'll take it captain!

To stop smoking. Ah well! I'll try again next year.

Berwick: like any of the race points that sit on the east coast, its a sod to get out of there if there's any east in the wind.

If you take it with ice make sure its fresh....................... and its not that frozen $hit

I've found over the years that you stumble across a good pair of breeders (think Old Hand called it the clicking factor). What you would call a pair of mediocre pigeons for some reason knock out super racers! The best place to find these pairs are in your race team. I also value the very first pair of eggs a hen lays.

VACCINATION CODE OF PRACTICE (1) Racing pigeons entered in races or shows must be vaccinated annually against paramyxovirus with a DEFRA-approved vaccine. (2) A vaccination certificate containing the details of the vaccination must be used. (3) Vaccination of pigeons must be witnessed by two independent association/union members, or a veterinary surgeon who will be required to sign the vaccination certificate on the front and likewise after the last pigeon listed on the reverse of the form. (4) The vaccination certificate should have recorded on it the make of vaccine used and the batch number of the vaccine. (5) The original copy of the certificate should be retained by the club and a certified true copy lodged with any other club (if a member is in more than one club). These certificates should be retained for two years. (6) Members entering racing pigeons in races or shows will be required to certify on their race/show entry form that the pigeons have been vaccinated against paramyxovirus with a DEFRA-approved vaccine. (7) Club secretaries will require to certify to their convoying organisations that all pigeons entered have been vaccinated against paramyxovirus with a DEFRA-approved vaccine. (8) The driver of the transporter should be furnished with a certificate certifying that all pigeons carried have been vaccinated against paramyxovirus with a DEFRA-approved vaccine

My sodding lights are useless

if its how they decompress or its the after effects of a dodgy Vindaloo

Taters in the mould ere too.

Amoxicillin has its place in the pigeon game. It is the favoured drug to combat Streptococci infections (which by the way is on the increase).

Scurlogue Champ. You could call him a dodgement or freak but of all the good dogs I see run nothing compared to this fella. Done the clock 20 times from 63 outings Ei Ei Ei Ei Ei . Watch trap six in this vid, he run most if not all of he's races like this

Steve Smith is running a coach trip tomorrow from your neck of the woods Mick, perhaps there's someone you know booked up for it. If you want Steve's number I'll PM it over to you.

Many congratulations

Generations of winners, location of the winning lofts and last but not least how many pigeons they sent and how many they won against.

Got myself one of these http://www.poundstre...clonic-vac.html just the job

I'm a conventional spud man myself. As a thought can you look into the eye of a spud to tell if its any good or not

pinch-punch first day of the month & no RETURNS................. looks like we've had a smash!

Good for stock, w/hood cocks & y/birds. Not good for w/hood hens as they'll make hollows in it and nest.

If thats Harry Houdini he's number escapes me.
