hope the picture comes up.

my club sent 263 birds in 11 baskets to the third race which is leicester-8 members

i posted that this problem was rife in the n/east and the problem i was told was strepticocle and a culture needed to be done to treat with right medication. sorry i carnt help any more. was also told pigeons would fly off and stop in mid air fall out of the sky as if shot or hit a wall?

whiteleas hs havent got a number for sec but nehu office is 01912625440

as said bricon prints off synk sheet but can also be used after this as a master and i presume print off given but never tried it yet but master is on the menu.

time fly,s

was racing last w/end little off the mark but mid week club got 3rd 4th heres hopeing for today -racing from newark to the n/east 130 miles,weather looks as if it will be kind to the birds.

bought a couple of birds from a good fancier in bridliton and when i collected them and had a chat he recounted one water race when the birds had been held over for days,they where eventually liberated and when it was time for the birds to return he was waiting-seeing a bird in the sky circleing he discounted it as a stray as it didnt dive in but after it had cicled high for a while he shouted of it -the bird turned and headed for him,he kept calling and the bird headed straight at him ,the bird nose dived into the lawn at his feet. he picked up the bird and examined it-one eye had been pecked out and the other was totally closed,he said he was sure it had homed on something other than sight. the fanciers name was Mr Chadwick of the loft mr and mrs chadwick. PIGEONS NEVER CEASE TO AMAZE ME.

dont worry-i put lights in the loft and they trap ok ,never had one hit the wires in the dark and the sparrow hawk doesnt bother them.

there is a post on pigeon chat -seems the UNC are haveing a race within a race -derby arona 2012 -might be worth a look.

phone green thumb and ask for a quote for lawn to be sprayed

great result -hope you top the fed.

well had a busy w/end -first race of the season 30 away 30 home just off the mark but still feeding young.[for friends] had all my young injected today and managed to collect everything to give to new midweek sec as i was acting sec last year as no one would take the job. first mid week race this coming week. graham brennan is takeing trainers at £11 a basket if any n/east lads are interested. still time to join burnhope mid week club-boundaries are the wda boundaries.

first race of the season tommorow -wakefield to n/east expected south east wind so you,s guys in scotland might see my doos as they miss my loft and end up the other side of the border.

try asking jim savage the rep in scotland

scope them and if neccessary treat with y40

i am too impatient-2 years old to score -----------no good to me . 500 and no results -thinking are the birds good enough or is the management letting them down? remember with young birds -health fitness training and motivation. SOMETHING HAS TO CHANGE IF YOU HAVE NO RESULTS.

nice jesture like the part that says free 6 bags of corn to go with the birds -lol

tell us where you intended to erect your loft who owns the land if allotment -is there an allotment association where in the country do you live give us something to work with pay your union fees and then you can get help from that sorce as well awaiting your reply map of your location with measurements to boundaries.
