Tommy Napper of Hetton, hes never missed a season in abt 50 years and hes still as kean as a new starter and he has some cracking birds. He uses a walking stick to get to his loft but still manages to get there every day to do the usual chores  :). Cant beat hearing stories from someone whos had them that long, for me thats what pigeons are all about  ;).

mainly sprint middle , they won the mnfc [i think it was]400 miles a good few years back with a pigeon called " clive 76" this bird was a phenominal racer, and responsable for many winners , down the line , many of his sons and daughters won as well, all in the fed , at that time 5000 birds approx i myself won 13 out of a possible 17 races in a club sending 5to,600 birds per week and also won the fed supreme ave, most of these birds were related to that pigeon

Bill Bonwell, DJ Bybee, Larry Hedge, Dana Newton, Ciecel Curtis, Ed Lincicome, these are the guys I fly against every week and they would sooner take the first five positions as look at you !!!

Some of em I guess

 

When people do "a wrong" against me I never forgive & I never forget. Some people have a problem with that.  I don't.  Life's too short. I surround myself with those that I care for & those I trust.

 

I'm a lot of things but I aint no hypocrite

Do they/did they used to fly the dark wildies Jimmy.

 

sorry to be so late with answer tony c ;D but they did fly the dark wildies , but their brother les who flies in darlington [who won the louella car] races brilliant as well ,and off course theve cutivated a strain over the years , swopping and pairing winners to winners , im sure les from darlington was 1st 2cnd in their biggest race [cant remember excactly what race ] a few years ago , but one of them was called dark velvet,,, the winner of the car was" bonnie blue"which was 1st club 1st fed 2cnd west durham amal, and 2cnd open vaux international from eastborne with 27,716 birds competing , i was the proud owner of a yb from this bird ,which topped the fed the very first race it was in approx 5 to 6000 birds, this was many years ago , but they are still racing as well  today, :)
