Aye it was great Archie I have done loads of adventure holidays in the past but Carol and the kids had never done anything like it and they really got a buzz especially going down the rapids in a kayak which they had never been in a kayak in their lives, I had the policies up to date before I let them go
-
It was great 5 nights in Las vegas and 2 1/2 weeks touring Arizona in a hire car staying with friends in Phoenix, first time for Carol and the kids so they really had a great time kayaking down the rivers, quading and four wheel driving in the desert, exploring caves and a lot more I was showing them the best route to take through the rapids and I was the only one that tipped their kayak, lost my kayak, paddle, sandals, sun glasses hat and drink. I had to swim down till I got out and my mate had recovered my kayak and paddle

Aye members should be aware of this scam and pass it on to all their friends, I got caught and I thought I was street wise and computer wise and I fell for it
-
Thanks Cem we are doing great just back from holiday so we are still recovering LOL
-
I have not had any problems, I don't keep any passwords etc om my computer and shut down as soon as they tried to access my details It was an odd 6 digit number which I tried to phone back but only a continuous tone

I had a telephone call from someone that said they were from Microsoft saying they were calling regards all my error reports, they talked me through a few tasks then I hit a point where it would not work so they asked my permission for a technical expert to take over my computer and fix it. They were on the phone explaining and I could see what they were doing All was going well till they accessed my personal details like bank and credit card so I switched it off immediately and asked him what he was up to, he said it was a mistake my argument was hes was a supposedly a technical expert so I told him to fook off and I reset my computer in case they had installed any programme that would access my details Maybe it was a mistake by them but I ain't taking no chances and maybe some experts on the site may shed some light but I have now lost all my contacts so can all those that keep in touch through email please send me one Thanks Dovescot

Aye it's like a "cemetry" LOL Just popped in to see how things are going, maybe we need to liven it up a bit :-)

Aye Roland but you know how most pigeon men are they won't organise anything for themselves or pay for it. The RPRA and other governing bodies should be taking this on board but they are too sh!t scared of upsetting anyone other than their members and it is the same in most sports. It may surprise you that I have threw up a lot of good simple ideas in anything I am involved with only to be shot down as the higher archy wish they had thought of that so it lands on its *expletive removed*. The problem we have on the site is that we are quite well scattered so funding something is harder, For instance we would have to fund owl keeping either around main liberation points or hot spots to keep the cost down or federations/governing bodies would have to take someone in the transport along with the birds or pay their expenses and that would take some doing. For instance someone in Scotland could do the Scottish Liberation's which may be from English federations, travel around Scottish hot spots, you could adapt this for Scotland, England, Wales and Ireland, maybe a national owl liberation scheme having a network of falconers all over the UK and Ireland promoted at Blackpool, sanctioned by the RPRA, WHU, IHU, NPA and SHU and sponsored by them as well or expand it to Roland's Goose fat and Sammy's anti mating jackets I wouls put £10 in the tin

Hi Manny, I don't have time to keep them I just flew them on hunting days that you can book at most birds of prey centres, good luck if you go ahead it is really great fun and you can find a bird you like, personally I like Harris hawks for hunting days To begin with, owls do not make very good pets. Beautiful, majestic and as awe-inspiring as they may be, in captivity they can be noisy, smelly and dirty and will need a lot of your time, care & attention. They require a regular, specialist diet, and in our opinion to be kept properly they need a large, purpose-built aviary which can be expensive to build and maintain. Owls are imprinted so you want one that thinks you are the parent responsible for feeding them and teaching them how to hunt

Your right George my son's number is redirecet to me at the moment http://www.doves-above.com/ Thanks

I will send you a PM if Sapper ain't beat me to it LOL

I think it is 5.4m x 4.8m including aviary but I will measure it tomorrow
-
Yes Wiley it was built to last with all the best of wood and the boxes are included, I have sold my big flatbed trailer if not London would have been easy LOL The building of the loft I am cutting back to one loft and only keeping racers, all the fancy and the fantails have now gone Also I was refused planning permission for the extension to my w/s as I have to much out buildings
-
Make me a good offer for this one

I used to fly a few hawks and the best thing to do is go along to your local falconry centre and get some tuition Basically you get a hand reared encrypted bird that views you as the parent and you become it's feeder. If you feed a raptor excessively it will not fly as they have only one thing in mind to survive as its body weight comes down it instinct is to feed and multiply. It will attack anything that comes near it or it's nest, I was at Kinross market that has a raptor display and a staffie which was off the lead ran up to the stand and the Harris hawk which was tethered attacked it If you train them to feed only out your hand they will but I flew Harris Hawks that were trained to hunt fur, you will see raptors advertised as hand, fur or fur and feather or encrypted I said a long time ago that we should fly them at liberation sites before our birds are released and in hot spot areas where hawks are attacking our birds
