Yes, God Bless them both, He had no intention of leaving his master

Is Catelae lofts writing in invisible ink

Change of loft I suspect

No of course not, hawks don't chase mobile pigeons that are in full flight, they live on stealth and are very good at it

Chris you can't be serious, I live in West Wales and I'm big on birds and the Gos is my worst nightmare, I can live with Mrs spar and Percy but the Gos is the worst, I lost four in nine days last year to a male, he was relentless, chased the birds around the yard and was very determined, in the 25yrs. I've lived here the Gos has been by far the biggest enemy

Goshawk and Sparrow hawk

No, but hawks don't attack in fair flight

Your right mate, it's a monster tonight

Did Wagner turn up

Another year on those wages and he'll be owning them

Yeh, strange how they want to bring everything home, like good pigeons, years of careful breeding

There are a lot of good dogs out there including crosses but I think the Collie is the most intelligent, if you watch some of the top sheep-dog trials, It's a joy to see

Having bred and trained hundreds of dogs I'm with Alf on this one

Full marks for perseverance,Once you're up and running it will all be worth it, best of luck mate

Sadly they're all out there Bob and thats the best place for them, they are born losers

Thats the way to go, when those youngsters are flying out that will be their home and a good pull for those you are trying to break

Good idea mate, this time next year you'll have a team going

NO way George, rear that round of youngsters and think about breaking birds after, If you're bored get out on the road for more running in prep. for the big fight

Anyone brave enough to watch the womens game that followed at Twickenham it was so much better to watch, hardly any penalties, do women understand the rules better,England ran out winners 89-0 but the Scottish lasses never let their heads down and played to the final whistle, even I was hoping they were going to get on the score sheet

All distances are calculated as the crow flies, I don't think there are any set distance for sprint etc. Just logic as to whats short, long or middle

And the parents look really good

Beautiful day here in West Wales as it's been most of last week, bumble bees feeding on the Daffys, just as it was getting dusk I saw a gritter go by, fully loaded

Surely there can be no argument against us trying to protect our birds in our own gardens or even lofts

May the best team win

Mines been gone an hour , should be well warm
