Out of 8017 members 5173 have joined the site and never posted or done anything on the site and 6253 have posted less than 5 times, :-/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spitting feathers Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 Hi everyone, spitting feathers here.Iam new to this site too.My son writes under the name of big blue bar. We have kept doos since he was a nipper and he is 40 now . He started off with a rock pigeon squab which he tamed and named Squeak. I have never seen such a tame bird. It used to come and meet me when I came home from work and followed me to the shop {walking}.We then kept tumblers for a few years until we moved south and decided to start racing in 1981.We have had limited success over the years but the last two years have seen us get more top positions at cub level and federation level. This year ,we seem to have a good team of youngsters,so heres hoping they perform well for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
