gangster Posted June 27, 2008 Report Posted June 27, 2008 good luck 2 everyone who has entered!!!!!!!!!!
OLDYELLOW Posted June 27, 2008 Report Posted June 27, 2008 at 750 + it's beyond the luck stage , to get a bird from this distance its the skill of conditioning and good breeding selection , hope you all have a good race
Ronnie Posted June 27, 2008 Report Posted June 27, 2008 The mecca of pigeon racing in my eyes well done everyone who even had the guts to enter maybe another two year and i will be sending .
onepigeon Posted June 27, 2008 Report Posted June 27, 2008 wanted to send but left everything to late what with work and family commitments .cheq cock 6 years old flown it twice before ,really should have gone again, but never mind hopefully next year. good luck to andy tarmas, clandown
PIGEON_MAN Posted June 28, 2008 Author Report Posted June 28, 2008 has anyone timed in? Any news was being put on the web site at 1.00 oclock,think it will be very hard for the guys in our club with the strong south west.
REDCHEQHEN Posted June 28, 2008 Report Posted June 28, 2008 Two been clocked in at 8.00pm and 8.30pm tonight well done
peterpau Posted June 29, 2008 Report Posted June 29, 2008 Well done to the two flyers that have clocked. Still waiting here.

rooster colburn Posted June 29, 2008 Report Posted June 29, 2008 not seen, danny for a couple of years, but if it danny of old i bet the beer was following well last nite, i bet his dad will be looking down with a big smile.

Guest Posted June 29, 2008 Report Posted June 29, 2008 ROSE any idea how many birds went to barcelona ATB les
Pompey Mick Posted June 29, 2008 Report Posted June 29, 2008 I visited Danny Staddon this morning to do a report on his recent 1st & 2nd Hants 2B Ch. Club from Falaise, the pigeon that was 2nd is his Palamos timing, looking very well too. It is 100% Lenny Painter bloodlines.
Pompey Mick Posted June 29, 2008 Report Posted June 29, 2008 Just a modification to my earlier post, Danny was 1st & 2nd from Lessay,116mls, just shows what a versatile pigeon he has.
Pompey Mick Posted June 29, 2008 Report Posted June 29, 2008 Spoke to Bomber Mellis, he timed at 10.16, the same pigeon that was 4th Sec. last year.
jimmy white Posted June 29, 2008 Report Posted June 29, 2008 what an absolute supreme effort these pigeons made , to be timed in after flying approx 750 miles , congratulations to both, the pigeons , and the owners ,
Guest Posted June 29, 2008 Report Posted June 29, 2008 Dont know the exact nos but going by what was on the transporter and what we sent i reckon around the 300 mark just wish it was lot more think it would give us lot better chance THANKS
Guest Posted June 29, 2008 Report Posted June 29, 2008 well done to all fanciers who have got birds home and those who havent theres always next time, but hope you get them back
