[leighton1984]

Yeah,

 

         i asked for that one, when i was young once a month my mum would treat us to a Battenburgh cake on a sunday

         why a sunday i dont know, didnt like them that much anyway.

 

         The Battenburghs are fetching silly money latley up to a grand each off the top birds recently on Pipa,

 

         I have paired mine to my top breeders so we shall see eventually but like everything it takes time and patience,

 

         or may skip a generation before they show. but if they do not fly 700 and 800 miles for me they will not stay

         thats for sure.
