lanarkshire fed members

[Guest Gareth Rankin]

Hi Alf

Lanarkshire has 10,000 birds at some races, so to cope with this we would need 2 rigid bodies that each hold 4,000 birds each cost 100,000 euros approx each. And then ideally a trailer that hooks on to the back of one of the vechicles that holds 2,000 birds which will cost 40,000 euros that could be used for 3 or 4 races which would be needed.

Other options 2 x 5,000 bird trailers that cost approx 100,000 each but then you still need to hire the transport each week.

All the above is prices from new, but although it is not cheap i beleive this is a road that we will have to take.

never had 10,000 in the last two years

[Guest TAMMY_1]

TAMMY THATS MY BROTHER IN LAW YOUR TALKING ABOUT DONT WASTE YOUR SHOVEL

Yes Tammy but is it not better to be safe than sorry, after all we have not been a kick in the *expletive removed* of it.

 

[Guest TAMMY_1]

I DOUBT IF WE WILL SEE A TRANSPORTER WITH 10,000 IN THE FORSEEABLE FUTURE WITH THE WAY PIGEONS ARE GETTING LOST AND THE MEMBERSHIP IS DROPPING EVERY YEAR

[frank-123]

could you not buy one that maybe say holds 6000 birds then maybe hire another that would hold 4000 for the first four or five yb races

 

or maybe south lanarkshire fed or midland fed  would join us to cut the cost but still have seperate liberations

 

what maybe or no chance?

[Guest TAMMY_1]

the most we sent this year was just under 8,500

IT IS GOOD IF U HAVE TWO TRAILORS ONE BIG ONE SMALL .

Hi Bart

You have to remember that we have generally 8 - 10 races were we have more than 6,000 birds, as far as i know you can not hire these geraldy transporters.

Agree with you on the other feds transporting along with us even more when it comes to the 200 mile stage. I would even go so far as to say that within the coming years that we will be all flying under the one banner LF.

P.S Tammy i know that this year we only had 6 races with more than 6,000 birds. ;D

Well bart can you see your birds in one of those beauties next year. is that what the meeting is all about, new transport and race control. what price does one of those new trailers run too and could the fed cover the costs with sales of young birds, breeder buyer, late breds, gold ring schemes open races or forming a combine to help costs.

[pender]

One that holds 6.000 with 4.000 trailer should do us, and yes garth it will happen us together even the ones that dont want it will have to bite there tongue and go along with it if they want to continue racing there birds.

[frank-123]

some great ideas there greengrass but maybe not next season bit of hard work from the members it could happen

ayrshire,ballochmyle,south lanarkshire, glasgow,renfrewshire,midland and  lanarkshire all going down the road together makes sense to me

put the right people in place it might happen  

just make sure lanarkshire members 5th of october for the open meeting

then 25th november for the agm

 

[frank-123]

eh pender

AT HIS AGE HE SHOULD BE TUCKED UP IN BED WITH A WEE CUP OF HOT CHOCOLATE ;D ;D ;D ;D

[Guest TAMMY_1]

THE FED HAS A LOT OF MONEY AND A LOT OF THE FLIERS WANT TO SEE SOME OF THE THOUSANDS OF POUNDS SPENT ON SOMETHING THAT THEY CAN BENEFIT FROM BECAUSE AFTER PAYING IN FOR 30 OR 40 YEARS THEY WANT NEW TRANSPORT THAT THEY CAN AT LEAST SEE THE BENEFIT OF FROM THEIR MONEY. THERE HAVE BEEN A LOT OF RUMOURS FLYING AROUND THAT MEMBERS FROM THE WEST SECTION WANT TO BREAK AWAY AND THIS IS ABSOLUTE NONSENSE THEY ARE STAYING PUT BECAUSE IT IS PARTLY THEIR  FED AND THEIR MONEY.

AND IF YOU READ THIS HOMER49 TELL THEM THE WEST SECTION IS GOING NOWHERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[ALF]

AGREE WITH YOU 100% TAMMY ABSOLUTELY NO BREAK AWAYS IT'S THE WELFARE OF THE PIGEONS WE ARE INTERESTED IN!!!

[Guest TAMMY_1]

CORECT ALF THE BIRDS ARE THE PRIORITY HERE AND NOTHING ELSE

[THE FIFER]

GREAT NEWS TAMMY AND U ARE RIGHT GETTING A TRANSPORTER WITH UR FUNDS IS GOOD INVESTMENT AND ITS ASSETS,
