bewted Posted August 20, 2008 Report Posted August 20, 2008 i think it was bewted who had the idea of an informal nationwide stray centre, not to sure if it got of the ground,but i still think the idea has legs if [again with if]enough guys go for it, yes,i had the idea,but,out of the whole pigeonbasics members,only 12 came forward !!!
ChrisMaidment08 Posted August 20, 2008 Author Report Posted August 20, 2008 excactly it saved a few quid all round bewt perhaps you could rally troops again
gangster Posted August 20, 2008 Report Posted August 20, 2008 yes top idea..ive just dropped birds at peter j s it will work with a bit of effort..........
Guest peter.j Posted August 20, 2008 Report Posted August 20, 2008 and a big thanks to you and chris m08 mick .......pete
grizzle_hen Posted August 21, 2008 Report Posted August 21, 2008 I think this is a really good idea and especially as there are members from all over the country and its always hard to get people on board on the forum - but the ideal place and I know its a while away, but Blackpool is the best place, considering that we saw pretty much most of the pb members there and meeting people face to face makes it easier to get people involved. Keep going with the idea and see how many people you can get on board here, start it off small, then present it to people at Blackpool - because then you say with 4 people the stray collection has worked/been successful and then you'll get more people on board
Guest strapper Posted August 21, 2008 Report Posted August 21, 2008 it would be an advantage of knowledge of lorry drivers moving around the country who could drop off/meet fanciers at certain points of his destination. maybe a little tip for doing it? as these drivers travel no ends of the uk it could be well worth a try.
pjc Posted August 21, 2008 Report Posted August 21, 2008 I started a thread under strays for members to post any movements up/down/accross country etc to move birds around but don't think anybody else ever posted any travel plans! Phil
grizzle_hen Posted August 21, 2008 Report Posted August 21, 2008 get in touch with bewted, he looks after the stray centre board, maybe you two could work together in getting something up and running
grizzle_hen Posted August 21, 2008 Report Posted August 21, 2008 Read my original reply to this thread (no-one seemed to have read it or considered it) I think this is a really good idea and especially as there are members from all over the country and its always hard to get people on board on the forum - but the ideal place and I know its a while away, but Blackpool is the best place, considering that we saw pretty much most of the pb members there and meeting people face to face makes it easier to get people involved.
