  1. Entire clearance of OBs YBs & Stock. Sex of YBs cannot be guaranteed. Flying into the North section of SNFC, my results since 2000:- 2000 5th Sect Lille 487 miles. 2001 7th Sect Hastings 437miles . 2002 7th Sect 27th Open Clermont 560 miles. 2003 335th Open Newbury 386. 2005 13th Sect Newbury, 13th Sect Falaise 567 miles. 2007 2nd Sect 91st Open Alencon 597 miles only sent one pigeon. 2008 11th Sect 59th Open Alencon, 41st & 43rd Open Ypres 471miles . 2009 12th Sect Eastbourne 442miles, 3rd Sect 123 Open Ypres. 2010 27th Sect Bovingdon 368, 7th Sect 126th Open Eastbourne 442. 2011 1st Sect 19th Open Messac 632 miles only sent 2, 8th Sect Ypres 471. This with a typical team of 10 – 12 pairs of old birds and 12 – 15 youngsters and normally only going to 3 or 4 nationals a year. These pigeons are descended from pigeons that have flown consistently from 400, 500 and 600 miles. I have only bought in 4 pigeons (Jan Aardens) since 1997, and have been delighted with the way they have crossed into my old family. The loft is being turned into a shed, but I will keep a section for birds until June/July 2013 if anyone wants to break the pigeons into their own lofts.
  2. Saturday morning about 09:30 percy wondering why my birds wern't out yet. Circled for at least 10 mins.
