Guest paulrstokes Posted May 9, 2007 Report Posted May 9, 2007 Did not happen to me but went to watcha fancier clock in once. He had a superb set up, two story brick built Garage. Pigeons on top, chickens below. We were up at the loft, when a bird came, he took the rubber off only to drop it. One bounce an it was straight through the trap door, a greedy hen is trying to pick it up and to watch this guy chasing the Hen round for the Rubber was hilarious. Whern he finally got the hen the rubber had been swallowed, what made it worse was upon going back up the ladder to the loft 3 more birds were back which took 3rd, 5th, and 5th. I have never belly laughed like it.
Guest Posted May 9, 2007 Report Posted May 9, 2007 I often ask my boyfriend to do jobs for me in the loft like putting up new perches and stuff and I am always paranoid about him being careless and letting one escape so i used to lock the door behind him,he never noticed as i was always back within a minute or two but one day i got side tracked by something else,then just completely forgot he was in there,went to the shop.Got back about 2 hours later to screams of laughter just as one of our friends was taking the door off the loft to get him out...boyfriend does not particuarly like the birds at the best of times and after having spent over 2 hours locked in the loft with them was not amused especially as he then had to spend another hour putting the door back on we laugh about it now....just ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Guest REDFOXKRAUTHS Posted May 9, 2007 Report Posted May 9, 2007 It was a cold wet winters day and my Dad and my brother were doing the pigeons( they had a double decker) and he was carrying a bucket of water and he sliped and fell flat on his ass on the floor below and the buccket landed on his head and the water went all over him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 ;D
Guest Posted May 9, 2007 Report Posted May 9, 2007 Another true story........years ago, two brothers who used to fly quite near to me had asked a top flier for some advice. The fancier told them to ensure they gave their youngsters plenty of baths. A few weeks afterwards, the top fancier came to visit them, and stood aghast at what he saw. There, in the bath, were half a dozen yellow squabs bobbing about!! When being asked the inevitable "What the f*ck are you doing?" question. The quite serious reponse was "Well you told us to give them plenty baths......!! I promise, this is absolutely true!
Guest Vic Posted May 9, 2007 Report Posted May 9, 2007 A partnership from the Liverpool area, were plagued by rats, and found two rat holes in the ground at the rear of their pigeon loft. They decided to exterminate them,by pouring high level octane fuel .down the holes using some cheap plumbing materials. The guy who lived next door was was a keen gardener, who was renown for winning many garden competitions. Anyhow, when ignition did occur, there were some muffled rumblings, folowed by pieces of "hallowed turf" with the odd plastic garden gnome landing here and there. They had only destroyed one of the best garden lawns on Merseyside! Not word for word, but this xcame from Old Swan (ex Liverpool scribe, Jimmy Cosgrove) ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D Vic.
Guest Vic Posted May 9, 2007 Report Posted May 9, 2007 AND ANOTHER! many years ago, whilst marking at Preston Rd. railway station, facing Walton Jail, some members would fancy a nice curry after leaving the Prince Alfred pub. On this occasion , I went along with Tony Reddin to sample the oriental delights.The newly openned restaurant was in "Rice Lane" of all places. Arriving , we ordered our meal, putting our clocks under the draped table cloths that were touching the floor. After "fulfillment" we left, hailing a taxi to take us home. On arriving home, we realised that we had left our clocks behind, instructing the cab driver to return post haste to the restaurant. We arrived just in time to stop two sweaty nervous Chinese immersing our clocks in a large container of water in the kitchen. ;D ;D ;D ;DVic.
