Guest Vic Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 Myself, my son, and two of my grandsons are looking forward to a days fishing, offered to us by one of our pigeon basics members. May I thank Pete for the invitation. The clocks have been set for an early rise tomorrow.We can't leave too early, due to pigeon chores, (filling the weaning pots, and may I add , medication as well.) I'll keep those interested, by my future postings. Here we go! ;D ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Vic Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 What can I say? Other than that we enjoyed our trip to Shropshire, via p/basics. and let me say that our host Pete is a pigeonman of the highest calibre, and a gentleman to boot. After a quick cuppa, (Before the anglers were setting up) Pete showed me around his lofty lofts. up a flight of metal stairs, some 15 ft or so above ground level. The floor is heavy metal grilling, and all droppings fall to earth level, which are used as feed for the fields each year or so. I have never ever seen a more adequate ventilation system in my life. Just Brilliant. He never encounters sikness within his family birds, which his forebears introduced 70 years before. What can I say? Vic. More Later.

Guest Vic Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 There are still guys in this game that dont relish publicity, and by taking snaps, is "not cricket" surely? But to see the environment, this guy has, will leave the average pigeon flyer gobsmacked. "Peace Perfect Peace" with an abundance of nature thriving around his domain. Birds such as Buzards, Snipes, Curlews, Herons and many more ,we recognised, in this so short a visit. Yes! He lives in "The Sticks" as townies utter with an air of contempt. But surely the Mersey is the "Styx" for them that don't understand. Goodnight, Vic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are birds and birds as we all know, but to overlook a steady flow of page threes,cruising without their nicks, in the sticks! ETS is a must surely? I, and my fellow anglers,enjoyed ourselves immensely, and hope that we can return in the summer ahead. You are a gent, Vic. Ill be in touch.
