Somewhere in Scotland.

BOURGES -- May 25, 2002 distance Brussels: 450 km 23,725 old birds 1. Severi Jules (Halen) 1651.67 m/m 2. Vandevelde Maurits (Scherpenheuvel) 1650.61 m/m 3. Reynders Casimir (Diest) 1643.32 m/m 4. Roosen Pros (Kermt) 1639.65 m/m 5. Benaets - Bamps (Nieuwerkerken) 1637.07 m/m The Bourges race with old birds was won by Jules Severi from Halen. A very nice victory for a "little" fancier. And the nicest thing about this victory is that it was the first time that this fancier participated in a national race. Severi's win in his first national race was certainly no give-away, either.. The winning pigeon, 5056983/00, is named "De Raket" (the rocket). It is a black bird and comes from the old strain that his father bred. Those black birds have been in this loft since the early sixties. There never came another pigeon into the lofts, so we're talking about a very close family.

I thought he won Bourges in 2002.

If hes still on the go he would be well over 70 now.

Read about him,good pigeons and he was'nt into pedigrees.Inbread family.

They are Jules Severi pigeons.

Happy birthday Jim.

i've put mirror back over lol :lol: :lol: Good thinking Mark,very handy if it happens again.

Well done Mark. Has the wife seen that hole in the wall.

No,to do that these days I think you would have to have quite a few classes to cater for racing and show pigeons. The Aberdeen show has quite a few flown classes, so not so many classes for show pigeons.

It is a shame,but the Aberdeen Fed AGM is always the 1st Sunday in December with the show the following Saturday.

Yes,the show ia on Saturday 11th December.

Mine.

You can download a transfer form from the SHU website but it still has to be filled in by hand and sent to them.

Might be.

Poodle Place.

Oildrum Lane.

Could be down to me (don,t know) ,I might have given Mac1 the wrong info at the time but I did PM him after he posted he had found the bird. Anyway you can now get a transfere form from Ian.

Licked the plate.

I have one or two grizzles,this is my favourite.

Do you turn the top to focus it.

Yes Ian,will have to get on of those.

What's this new gadget you've got then Archie.
