Waste of time and money,it`s outragous,wasting money on rubbish like that,all monies collected should go to childrens charities,not sleazy memorials that will be covered in pigeon crap,or a place for dogs to urinate against,pathetic,self righteous,give us a pat on the back drivel.

Can't help Hyacinth but, contrary to what Ben says. I think tiz good to have the memorial of war animals. Just shows that we should pay more respect to 'em.

Tell ya what though it'd be a bloody brave dog to run over Park Lane to pee on it. LOL..........

IT'S WELL THOUGHT OF HERE IN THE UK, AND A GREAT ACHIEVEMENT AND A LOT OF HARD WORK WENT INTO GETTING IT, SO LET'S KEEP IT.

Hyacinth, If its the memorial wall that it is in Park Lane/Hyde Park, I have seen this wall and it is quite a spectacle. Although it is only a wall it has horses,dogs, mules

pigeons depicted in like a war time seen - although it is all in white.

It is a fantastic memorial for what those animals did for mankind during that dreadful time and it is a fitting reminder to us all that we dont forget.

Ben, I suspect that you are a young person and cannot appreciate the fact that unless such things are brought to mind that they are easily forgotten. The purpose of a memorial is that we DONT forget. - People or animals.

So what you jokers are trying to say is,"let`s put up a tacky memorial,and that makes up for all the years of mistreatment and abuse,and i`m talking about nowadays as well,the way some of you post on these forums tells me EXACTLY your regard concering your personal behaviour towards are feathered friends,and at timesleaves much to be desired.

Ben, Now that's a statement and half! especially when you see nothing wrong with experimenting with drugs, oh and by the way sending babies to Pau?

 

All depends on how you look at things Ah! ben

Tony, I won't be as polite as you.

 

Ben a few months ago you took it on yourself to totally demean certain breeds of racing pigeons especially the ones I flew, at the time I asked you to PUT UP OR SHUT UP (Remember the Million Dollar Pigeon Race)

 

There is only one conclusion to be reached

 

BEN YOU';RE A TOTAL *expletive removed*
