[Guest TAMMY_1]

HAD AMTRAK PICK UP ONE OF MY BIRDS TO GO TO WALES YESTERDAY , WAS PICKED UP AT NOON YESTERDAY AND WAS DELIVERED AT JUST AFTER ONE THIS AFTERNOON , SO NOT TOO BAD

[DOVEScot]

DOVEScot Why?

Or just a nosey do gooder eh lol.

 

pigeonpete it is purely a local problem. Now lets be realistic here for once and honest... and I am as nissed as a pewt, and Fight like F*** and **** Like a Donkey Hew Haw hee Haw lol.

 

But let's liken it like a Hawk problem.

You have pairs nesting - Like me - within a 100 and 200 yards each side of your loft. Now many are the days when they can be out every day from morning till dusk... Which I prefer with an open hole. Do I - which I should just send Race Days and use the Feed to put the birds in the frame, and incidentally fly well, and only time out is when racing till end of March. Yes this is the most sensible and realistic way to go about it, indeed every loft should in fact do just that! No feeding the Hawk's youngster, though we know it is right we don't do it, we wish and pray EVERY body else would, but we want to steal a march! Selfish? Yes may Well be, or do we put forward a reason like saying 'I would, but everyone else WON'T!  Why, because it suits our own personal wants and needs and desires. Sure we ALL know that Training, even Loft flying should be curtailed till the end of May! Does or will anyone - outside of me - do it? Nah, and think and fast are the reasons offered, but few genuine! But it would have a diverse and very genuine affect on the Hawk brigade. Now I know it, and so do most of ALL pigeon fanciers, but is it done! Not on your Nelly, and never will be.... so why if let birds out does one, -knowing better - moan when Hawks have the Birds? Any one can - and should - be able to get their birds loft fit and the odd training exercise done by End of March say and then leave and out only on race days! Fact full stop! Why! Because they certainly aren't fly stiff hazardous 500 miles on a hard day! Yes fact! So when 'Percy' has a meal why do we moan? 4 years down the line by doing what is relevant and sensible, we would still race and have a detrimental affect on Mr Percy. But we don't! Instead we moan, to all and sundry to deaf ears! Not even to ears that could have a bearing!

We Walla in self pity and Apathy, expecting some else, sometime, somewhere to wave a magic wand and put all things 'Hunka Dorry' yet we know it won't happen, yet still some miss - be guided notion lingers with hope it May! Well mucker let me tell you IT WON'T! Likewise with couriers, sometime somewhere we have to accept Crap down the Shute. Yes we hope not, and kid ourselves differently, even spout crap Rights, but we know ...Yes it is going to happen, that stinking great pile is around the corner, but we send... So Knowing it can happen... why spout when it’s your Shute! Better still to polite ask, and offer a gentle pointer... and hope the Twit that cocked up will be with your birds for ever more... because he has learnt the hard way a lesson of realism... and won't cock up again ... hopefully

 

Why you ask

Because you seem to spout quite a bit on behalf of amtrak just interested, what you base your knoweldge on

Oh a Nosey Git, and likes to keep throwing wood n a fire eh! Well your on a computer mucker... just go on a search Channel and type in appropiate questions eh!

Amtrak is a Franchise, and as such is base on a Franchise set - up. But all and any buisness to suceed has to have Profit making amd workable stragety. Simple that, each item and action has to be costed and accounted to relevance of Profit! Likewise not every action that looks good to us laymen is an option, Why, becuse it may well have diverse and negative effects, and may even be more than detremental in the long term effect.

When I worked at Weetabix, I devised a byproduct for the waste. The company eventully came back to me and said'Yes it would make a lot of money... too much, Infact our waste would be sold for upto 7 times the price of weetabix. So it is a no go for us, and not least put forward was the fact that the quality would quickly become of no importance if the waste was more lucrative. Now if you ...they said But I hadn't the balls etc. and shortly after the market climate for what I was going to use the waste product on changed again... but would still have ben lucrative.... but a lot of time, etc. and above all money to set up... then the risk of a bigger concern... but I didn't and Weetabix was some 2/3 years back for a reported £640,000,000 pounds. And the founder member was a great pigeon man, and did absolute great for our Fed and many clubs. One Gold Cup alone is 24 inches high of Solid Gold (Reportedly) Many clubs have the Trophies thanks to him. A great friendly rival of the other great and astute - especially as a Stockman) Masserella. One who bought in pigeons ate world recold prices also, and who in the mid 50's imported and exported birds to China etc.
