Delboy Posted March 6, 2011 Report Posted March 6, 2011 If I remember right, this was painted using a knife onto an old bit of plywood. Not too professional I dont think Audrey Lawrence has much to worry about John. Mind ye, if I had the tools, I suppose i could do ok Jittery Jill, what a specimen she was m8.

alec guinness Posted March 6, 2011 Author Report Posted March 6, 2011 John tell us how it got its name? or is that to obvious? Jim she was bred by bhw scribe and pal john harwood,john had the nest mate grizzle cock "jittery jim"who won the shu trophy for best young bird in scotland and went on to score at the national as an old bird,he was a bit nervy about the loft hence the name,i just called the hen "jittery jill" as a youngster and like her brother she won well for me and dad. :) :)bloodlines were our old grizzle line,martin & king shotts and johns good janssen lines. :) :)

I also remember picking her out of your team John when she was going to the race. Pity, I couldnt have picked one for masel, mind ye, I was 2nd tae ye lol
