  1. I would like to get you to double check as a number of Canary clubs have been forced to cancel shows and a DeFRA vet has told us NO shows allowed inc Telford Auctions that was at 1329 today friday .If it goes ahead Defra will have alot of Canary clubs taking the matter further.
  2. Check which Ivomec you have and get proper advice.

    widowhood

    I race natural but Paul Kendall and Stan Biss have scored well
  5. All ETS systems should be checked by an impartial arbitrator approved by the governing bodies .Unfortunatly it has been a free for all with no controls which has caused these problems RPRA council did not think when they approved ETS what would happen a bit of commonsense and thought could have prevented this. Luckily are club is ETS free.
  6. Thanks Alan that is good bird .Stephen

  11. F.Hinchcliffe and son fly Erics family with success out to 650miles there near Glossop Derbyshire.
  12. A quick reply to red cheq Clermont is only 430 to most thats not long distance yes this years Bourges was up this year but the NE is sprint/middle distance mad .How many Blue Boys are thier now and that statement came from a number of UNC flyers good ones . How many fly 600 plus more than once a year up there and how many fly NFC or BICC ?.
  13. Sir you would be much better staying in Iceland this country is dirty thier is alot of hidden unemployment housing is very expensive and we are taxed heavily. You cannot speak your mind without the liberals whinging and are goverment is highly intrusive into your private life, We also have alot of intrusive laws state schooling on the whole is poor you would need a Catholic school or good grammar .Language teaching is a national disgrace they start them here at 11!!!!!!!!!!!! state school disipline here is also laughable.No sir stay in Iceland i have visited your country good schools etc etc ,clean lo unemployment and low crime and good discipline everything we are losing due to political correctness and poor politicians.
  14. This was done years ago the British Berlin Club it was quite successful but as NE fanciers dropped distance racing the club folded. It whould have to a national club as the Up north combine struggle to send 2,000 to Bourges.They are sprint mad now no more Blue Boys anymore.
  15. A Mr B.Stansfield NFC committee man advertises white racers get his phone number from the NFC website committee list.
  16. Good thinking Alan.
  17. Hello what if like myself your a out and out distance flyer who does not set a clock on races under say 250mls what use would sprint birds be!.Perhaps a divide between distance and sprint ?.
  18. Hello all my birds get is the jab and a wormer if required i only treat individually and cull any signs of weakness.
  19. I train in 2s and 3s due to hawks and from any direction N,S,E or W because of my job and if i can get them singled i will . Why will most fanciers not train off line what the hell are they frightened off ?.
  20. Just a quick note from December 6th the sale of Duramitex will be illegal by order of that 1984 group the EU when will this unelected politbureau leave people to make thier OWN decisions.I would advise you to get it asap Harkers have no plans to replace it.
  21. David has a fine yellow bar hen its former owner said and i quote nobody will get her till they screw the nuts down .The silvers are also top notch yellow bars are common in Croston Barkers Meesrs Edmondson ,Baldwin and the Martland bros for had them and they flew well the Doctor also had them through Dick Baldwin. They are just not pretty pigeons belive me.

    white birds

    I live in a area with Gos,Peregrine and sparrrow hawk i race grizzles,reds,mealy and dark chequers and the odd blue .I lose more chequers and blues to hawks than anything else ive logged my losses over 5 yrs also my best birds are grizzles and reds flying 650mls plus to the age of 6 to 7 flown on open hole. Grizzles have been flown successfully by many as with reds etc its old wives tails about hawk bait by people who generally know nothing.
  24. I have read what has been said on the matter i raised it has been interesting .It should be down for membersof individual clubs to decide will it cause the break up of some clubs yes i think it will some bad feeling will occur but ets is here to stay .It is not of any use to me at present as i have to varify my BICC birds in both national and internationals and we do not set a clock under 250 mls and are club members are not interested bar 1 what does he do for now if he stays its an STB like the rest of us . If not we may lose a member and nobody wins we are going to have to work together and respect each others views but in some places that will not happen.
  25. Its interesting to see different views on this are club is going along the lines of compentant and willing and nobody is willing. If as one person said a letter is sent to Mr Bryant objecting and it got through who could force anybody to do it !. We are a small rural club with a 40mile by 20 mile radius and some 18 members . We are out of nearly every other clubs radius so what happens ! you can take a horse to water but you cannot make it drink. The club might split because of one person we will wait and see .
