Pigeon Racing Today And Yesterday

[just ask me]

what do you miss that has gone from our sport

 

i miss some of the great characters and the many great and funny stories they told

[Rooster J. Cogburn]

From a Scottish perspective the days when national racing comprised of one club open to all members who wished to compete

 

From a personal persepective,looking at taking a couple of steps backwards to take a step forwards

The word PEREGRINE was never spoken years ago,now it is one of the main topics discussed at the club every week.SAD.I miss having most of my birds home within an hour of the first arrivals instead of waiting all day from races at 60mls.expletive remove.

[THE FIFER]

was good to take your birds down to the local railway station to mark for racing, and see them all loaded onto the train, also take them down with your basket marked where you wanted them liberated and have your empty basket returned afterwords,
