Scotland To England

[sapper756]

There was talk at our basketing tonight, about how difficult it is to get a courier to take bird from Scotland to Englandhttp://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif

 

anyone used a courier lately for this route?

[Guest G.Drysdale + son]

I phoned a guy down south to bring 1 up for me he wanted £60.00

Tried for 2 weeks last year to arrange 1 down to Carlisle, eventually took it down ma self and the gut gave me a score for the fuel. Even when they turn up you can bet its no a pigeon man and he won't have o box to put it in!! No time for any of them now. :angry:

I can see this being a big problem when the young bird season starts, and we start getting birds reported and can,t get them collected, especially if it is a non fancier reporting themhttp://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/huh.gif

now it looks like I am going to be unemployed, I was thinking of doing a courier service but wouldnt know what would be a fair charge, obviously I would need to cover costs and get a wage , any Ideas??

We ought to create a relay team of fanciers who will pass on a bird to someone, say 20 miles in the direction the bird needs to go, and receive birds to be passed on up/down the line, now i know it would need a lot of Good Will from any fanciers who make up the team but i'm sure we could manage it if we tried. Free is the word here!

what i have been led to believe some of the english couriers want to work with a scottish one, ie sort of relay, get in touch with some m8, could be the answer, get a drop of point for you to drop birds to go south and pick up birds comming north,
