whats wrong with the original ?

i started in the early 60's when i was a kid,we have railway arches at the top of our street where rooks as we call them live, i noticed one particular bird one day which looked like a grey bird to me but my mate told me ,no thats called a blue, thats when i first started to notice pgeons. shortly after that i got a tea-chest in the back garden standing on 4 sticks,like stilts.had a few 'rooks' in it, my da told me to get rid of it/them but soon after built me my first pigeon shed,i had homers and tipplers in together breeding together,me not knowing any better. anyway my dads a scotsman and he and his brother kept pigeons during the war. then he met my mum and stayed here in belfast,his brother kept the pigeons well into the 70's untill he died.myself and my 2 brothers are into pigeons .must be in the blood.

do u cover belfast,northern ireland.

i hope they do have the ets slot,be handier than the plastic jobs at the minute. then it'll be just one ring rather than the two.

very good.

maybe not

there is already a thread on that subject and if my memory serves me right it was you that started it vanreets.

2 more decent 'looking' birds above.

thats more to my taste,those two above.in the looks department anyway.

thank you for that. mind you my dad was from just outside edinburgh but i never heard him call it that,and he and his brother both kept pigeons. but there you go, thank you.

ive wondered about this since joining pigeonbasics,would someone tell me what is a 'Doo' please. obviously its a pigeon but where does it come from. thanks.

sorry,got that wrong. 1 kilo=1lb 2oz = 18oz.

when i was at school 2lb 2ozs = 34ounces.

theres some stuff/pics on here from a few weeks ago.

nice one.

The English will always have a unique way of telling it the way it is...! .......................................................... One rainy spring night in an English Town a taxi driver spotted an arm waving from the shadows of an alley. Even before he rolled to a stop at the curb, a figure leaped into the cab and slammed the door. Checking his rear view mirror as he pulled away, he was startled to see a dripping wet, naked woman sitting in the back seat. "Where to?" he stammered. " Vale Road ," answered the woman. "OK," he said, taking another long glance in the mirror. The woman caught him staring at her and asked, "just what the hell you are looking at?'" "Well lady, replied the driver, I noticed that you're completely naked, and I was just wondering how you'll pay your fare." The woman spread her legs, put her feet up on the front seat, smiled at the driver and said, "Does this answer your question?" Still looking in the mirror, the cabbie asked, "Got anything smaller?" seems it goes for the English as well.

yes i hate it when the headline catches my eye and i go to the subject only to find it has been highjacked,,. also dont like ads for dogs for sale and fotos of dogs. i joined this site because its about pigeons,surely there are other sites for dogs where people can talk about them all they want.
