Guest BRYANBROCK Posted June 6, 2010 Report Share Posted June 6, 2010 <br /><br /><br /> they are not all taken by the hawk never said they where, its the fear when they meet them and it is a possibility that they are all eaten, as for you cant answer as to why they haven't returned, and don't get reported, maybe it would be as much as a shock as it is to the birds , to see actually how many hawks that are out there, flocks on anything always attract some sort around the dinner table, just suppose there are 50 hawks on route that cant be hard to imagine, then again there could be 500 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JADE Posted June 6, 2010 Report Share Posted June 6, 2010 If your that smart take up the position the problem is we are missing Joe Murphy.The reason we dont phone in is quite simple they dont ever update our times .Get off your Ar-se and try it. I`m not being "smart" I was only giving my opinion which i thought this site was for. The best man ever on the lib line was the late John Gray and i once congratulated him on it and he told me it was a thankless job and the criticism he got if he was late with an update was out of order. Joe Murphy was good as well. i will not be getting of my *expletive removed* to do it although if i had the time that some fanciers have i would give it a go.unfortunately i work full time sometimes on race days and i already have enough things to do with pigeon related tasks for club, fed etc so please do not insult me again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
