Just rememer to turn aff that coal fired blanket before you hit the hay then mate. ;D ;D ;D

Aye you would say that Chris,you just want the over time mate. ;D ;D

When use get modern energy up there you will never look back mate. ;D ;D ;D

Do you still get parafin mate have not seen it for at least 25 years.????????????????

That good to know that your sorted mate,but spare a thought for all us that are unfortunate enough to be in the extreme west,could be minus 40 here tonight. ;D ;D ;D

With demand for gas an electricity never been higher,do you think we will soon be faced with rationing regarding energy uses. :-/ :-/ :-/

Best i have had sent 4 to Reims SNRPC 560 miles and got 2nd sec 11th open and 9th sec 42nd open only 48 birds timmed that day.

An here was me thinking that was an accurate interpretation of pigeon racing in Scotland as well. ;D ;D

Have to agree mate,if i did not have the chance to compete at the highest level against the cream of fanciers from distances in excess of 450 miles then i would have to take up fishing or something.Just my opinion, but if i was only racing up too 200 miles then as far as i am concerned i might as well keep budgies.Which i would not.

They are having a laugh mate.comedians.

Here Jonesy the harder the better,then its an even better achievement.

Don't know about that mate,they don't call homer49 the pharmacist for nothing (Viagra). ;) ;D

You are showing you age Kenny,i could handle them no probs mate. ;D ;D ;D

Think the smiley face you put up tells the whole story mate. ;D ;D ;D

Good pigeon fanciers will always be good fanciers no matter were they fly.But i think that good pigeons are also a vital component of any fanciers success.As to the east, west debate you only have to take the young bird national races for example and there are pigeons right up the east cost as far as Dundee before they are in the west.Now there are equally as good pigeon fanciers in both sides of the country,so on that basis one can only come to one conclusion.

I stand corrected,Dafty. ;D ;D

Also shocked that there is 40 users online that could vote on this pole but only 6 have chosen to do so. :(

See on the news that the cleric that is trying to organize the protest in wotton Basset is on 25 Grand a year Government benefits,Shocking. Surely it is time the British people took a stand against this sort of outrageous behaviour from individuals that are intense on creating racial hatred in this country.Proud British Muslims are also outraged by these individuals behaviour,surly it is time we made a stand against human rights laws and stick up for what is right for us, citizens of Great Britain. Hope this thread will be allowed as it is about time,We the people of Great Britain were allowed a voice.

Steady on Big man you are giving away your secrets. ;D ;D :X :X :X

:-/ :-/ ;D ;D ;D

Don't often agree with you mate but on this occasion you are 100% spot on.Will be going again,but the last time i was there,i could not help notice how run down the place was and generally the poverty of a high percentage of the people i seen was sadly evident. :(

Brian Denny Scottish fanciers Ken Hine Eddie Newcombe Padfield Family Jock Ellis Not one better than the other all equally great fanciers. Peter Virtue.
