Roland Posted October 21, 2009 Report Posted October 21, 2009 I, like most here, feel for Pete and his loss. I will start a 'Donation' fund of with £25. If others so wished to with donations of say £5 - £10 upwards I feel Pete and the little Chappie could quickly replace a few of the stock birds. Also would lighten the loss a mite. Obviously it helps, though not eradicate the hurt and disappointments. Yes others may feel a 'Auction' and yet stick other may wish to present a pair of stock birds. I have very few birds at the moment, as most will know. I will also need my youngsters to build upon and see what I actually have in 2 years down the line . So some may just want to breed Pete and the little one some youngsters. But this and an ‘Auction’ puts around £30 on a bill for couriering. What do others wish to door suggest..
Guest Paulo Posted October 21, 2009 Report Posted October 21, 2009 I can sort Pete out with a pair of stock birds if he wants them. A Van Der Rhee cock that has bred VLofts a winner and the staf van reet hen he was paired with to bred the winner. Plus I have a few spare hens that I haven't bred from yet that I paid good money for. If he's short of YB's I can porbably sort him something out as well.
pigeonpete Posted October 21, 2009 Report Posted October 21, 2009 Roland like i said yesterday, i very much appreciate your help, and genorosity, And i love the way you have gone out of you way using your time and effort to try and help. But it really is not necessary. It was my fault really for not checking they were secure properly, I have had a fantastic offer of a build of new traps by duncan and carol, and numerous offers of ybs next year, so i will be fine roland, please dont think we are ungrateful, that is not the case, If you do send me any money i will only donate it to Ian makays one loft race :-) I will bounce back, not sure about jordan, as he was not speaking to me after his mum told him all his grizzle stock birds had gone :'( once again much appreciated roly :-) If it makes you feel better you can breed me a pair next year ( must be grizzles though )
Guest strapper Posted October 21, 2009 Report Posted October 21, 2009 pete its all sent to try us,and im sure your bounce back with better success m8,look at it as a wake up call to progress... a learning curve..thats the way i look at dissapointments. about jordan...kids only take things to heart for a short while untill a new surprise cheers them up..maybe a new pair of grizzles would surfice. best of luck m8
