Guest gordon Posted September 14, 2006 Report Posted September 14, 2006 Jimmy won races from 90 mile up to 500+ I competed against himfor over 20 years, an outstanding pigeon fancier. a good friend .
stephen steyert Posted September 15, 2006 Report Posted September 15, 2006 i agree gordon his name was always in the combine resuls & not always just at the distance
andyb Posted September 15, 2006 Report Posted September 15, 2006 i only met Jimmy the once and it was a night i shall never forget. what a superb pigeon man and if i win the lottery before the sale i,ll buy the lot
Alf_Rothwell Posted September 16, 2006 Report Posted September 16, 2006 Andy that night was at Blackpool when a few of us got together until 6am. Jimmy really enjoyed himself then we all went to bed and had to be down for breakfast at 8am. I think the hotel was called The Village and the Jodges and officials stayed there. a fire alarm had went off with people runing from their rooms, but we knew nothing about it. Yes there will be some crackers in the sale including a 1st and 2nd Up North Combine. The UNC winner has bred at least 10 winners for Jimmy and friends. I hope it all goes well. Alf R
andyb Posted September 21, 2006 Report Posted September 21, 2006 t certainly was in blackpool and i believe we both judged that year. the pigeon crack that night was top class and from memory i believe you actually slept with jimmy! i vaguely remember my wife being evacuated and having to come in the bar for me to let her back in the room.....she is now my ex!! haven't won the lottery yet but if i do you'll see me there. hope the family gets everything they deserve from this once in a lifetime sale
