this is taken from another site this is only the start wont be long before rest of Europe follow No training or racing of pigeons in Belgium.I think this will now also be the case here in Ireland.I was hoping that this wouldn't happen as when you go down the road training your birds you are on your own so I cant see how this would be of any danger yourself or others.Sad dad times we are now living in.Stay safe everyone .

For all the people who went to Cheltenham, and football matches, wish you all the best of luck,as we are 2week behind Italy and what ever they do we will follow suit. And they are part island and a. Warm country

[dal2]

No allowed to train or race?? Why? Whit fookin nonsense. A ban on social media for a fortnight might be more useful

[Andrew suckle]

Jesus.... If were relying on Nicola we really are f#£&d.

IMO we just get on with it, if feds cancel delay/racing. Then it's private trailer and small scale club racing for the guys who want it. Simple.

We were talking about that this morning at the club we will go on our own transporter

We have had Foot and Mouth, Bird Flu, and still continued with restrictions common sense is important

Alan, I think the Belgians have no training or racing only until 3rd April so blown out of proportion again imo.

I don't see a problem racing. Most clubs can adapt to this crisis. This is just my idea of how I would run it but don't have a go as I am only trying to be positive about it. Please comment on how we can get through this. 1. Every member entering and leaving the club sanitizes his/her hands. All MUST also wear a mask . 2.Have the pigeons marked in slots of 5 members ie. if you have 20 members, mark the 5 oldest ones first, then half hour later, mark the next 5 oldest and eventually you are left with the youngest 5 to mark and load the transporter.( all members should stay at a safe distance from each other and as soon as pigeons are marked they should leave the premises)3. Handlers must all sanitize their hands after every basket of pigeons marked. 4. Common sense being applied and regular hand cleaning and it should be fine.5. Returning clocks could be left in the club hut without members hanging about. The clocks could be picked up the following week. Its about helping each other out and playing the game by sticking to the rules. Any other ideas?

A 56-year-old man was mugged for his loo roll - moments after he found two of the few remaining packs in a London shop.

 

The victim, Dinendra, was leaving discount store Savers when someone ran up behind him and snatched one of the rolls he was carrying.

 

Loo roll has been in high demand following panic buying across the country as people prepare for a country-wide lockdown over coronavirus.

 

The shaken shopper called the police after he was jumped outside Savers in Harringay, North London.

 

He said: “Its not the value of the toilet roll, its the principle.â€

 

Huge crowds formed at the Savers Dinendra was shopping at today, with some shoppers being snapped grabbing 18 loo rolls.

Well ur wrong again Spain has been in lock down for nearly a day now and fingers crossed 🤞 u catch it u will give us all peace

[john cumming]

Unless our situation worsens and a lock down situation is enforced i think we would be racing, but saying that france belguim spain possibly all go into lock down that would affect channel racing possibly depending on how long duration of lock down

 

Just wondered if perhaps plans to change race programes here ie shorten them, cancel ect if our status changes, also with over 70s quarintin/self isolation situation, the permutations could be endless

 

Just playing devils advocat
