i live fife miles west of dunfermline i see the west of scotland birds going through, the reason they are up at arbroath is they aarguing about rangers and celtic.

walter when you go to club,fed.,or snfcmeeting you dont tell people they are needing their head pickled i ts downright bad manners. you have your views and i mine , we are never going to agree so letts beg to differ .

nowt ere m8 hope you get it sorted out

hi walter you got your opinion and i got minewhy should the tail be wagging the dog , to say that stopping the inland nationals is gonna increase the birdage in french races isnot the case , i for 1 wont be going to french races and majority of my club didnt go to any last year your statements are a bit speculative i think, seems like you think if snfc was to stop inland nationals we woul be forced to send ours to get a decent programme , a bit selfish i think

walter was in the sixties when 8000 birds went to rennes we aint got the same amount of pigeon fanciers now [unfortunatly]. your only looking after yourself advocating only wanting the nationals from 500 miles if you take out the members who keep sprinters there aint gonna be mutch left, they are your bread and butter , and not all of uss are wanting to waste a weekend waiting on plodders

the sensible thing to do would be to scrap ypres as it only got 400 birds last year compare that to 4000 in the inland nationals the long distance flyers have had it their way for to long we cant race our y..b.sin june because they want to race theirplodders at that time of the year

cant understand how the up north combine can have 8 nationals when the rest of england dont compete , its my understanding a national is open to whole country .

hi old pied ,your idea of good management mightnot be the same as mine ,if the birds are not winning, the management aint right, there are more good birds than there are good fanciers

hi lightning fast to see what your proposing would be great , it would cut costs we would meet fanciers fron other feds. here in fife we got two feds .going to the same racepoints evey week . the ironic thing is the the fife federation could carry the kingdom feds. birds as well.they all fell out a few years ago about e.t.s . kingdom formed and we we all go our own way. nowt queerer than pigeon fanciers ,

not the case in this area greenlands i wathed a female peregrine see off two buzzards they were getting interested in a pigeon that was killed by it .

buzzards are starving due to the bad weather thats why they seem unusually tame

i agree with you walter,you cant say say won a race if you came second

not all snfc members go to 500 miles you saying no inland o.b inland nationals

bacteria and viruses took three and a half million years to get to where they are now. to say that there are new viruses is nonsense , they are mutations

hi bill wlcome wlcome to the house of fun

hi bill wlcome wlcome to the house of fun

hi aber valley all the bacteria an viruses were on the planet before us , the birds in the fifties and sixties were fighting them with a healthy imune system since the use of all these antibiotics mentioned they have cont stantly mutated and made a lot of the earlyantibiotcs useless the t.b. and the flu jab are not antibiots they are small doses of dead vacine to stimulate our imune systems.

looks like i,m putting my birds in the basketevery week with birds with no imune system

hi chatters my birds never at any time dropped like flies , still dont, and i never seen young bird sickness yet .

yer like a bunch of chemists in ere bin the lot and lets get back to wot it was in the fiftys before all this rubbish was on the market

they got more money than sense, a pigeon is only worththe same price as the onions on the same plate as it.

i feel very sorry for the poor man, this country is on a downward spirral

a spade is a better investment

barley is better than wheat . wheat makes the birds skitter, according to gordon chalmers you should not use more than 5 per centmaples in your birds diet as they are harmfull, your birds shoud be peckinf at your shoe laces just now . fat birds wont lay on ten days
