excuses

[Fife_pigeon_wife]

whats the best excuse youve heard for a bird not trapping?

[Tony C]

Pigeons wouldn't trap because of a pair of Mallard ducks building a nest on top of the loft.

[weecunny]

the wife next door was cutting the hedge with a strimmer lol

[jimmy white]

helicopter,,flying a foot above the loft ;D ;D ;D

[jimmy white]

a hawk,," bigger than a golden eagle" , frightened the bird

 

[that chap was also a fishing man ;D ;D ;D]

[blaz]

race to short for him he needs further would not stop flying.

[jimmy white]

a cow,,sticking its head through the three wired fence ,,for better grass,in the fanciers garden ,,from the field at the back of his garden,,,,,, every time the cows head moved , the wire on the fence went squeek squeek ;D ;D ;D  frightened the bird ;D ;D ;D ;D,,,,all true ;D

Did anyone hear the story about the fancier whose pigeon was sat on the house roof and he couldnt time it in, he tried everything, ladder out , climbing over the roof. eventually he shot it with an air rifle... the eejit then timed it in to take first place and when the club officials came to verify... cos it was a big race ... all he could produce was the body of his dead pigeon. Imagine that, what a plonker.

one guy came into our club when i was secretary and told us his next door neighbour was playing tennis in her back garden , then later when someone asked how he got on he told them she was cutting her hedge wi a strimmer, then it changed agin to someone else to her kids were playing football.

My next door neighbour was in the garden bathing topless, my best cock saw her and decided to show to her instead of going to the loft :-/ ;D ;D

Because he was laying on the ground dead after being shot off the barn roof by the fancier! A very true story.

couldnt get my birds to trap,, cause there was a snake in the loft ;D ;D ;D,,,,true

[Blue Chequer Pied]

A long time ago I was in a club where there was a sweepstake every week as to what a certain members excuse would be that week (there was always one he never had a good trap lost at least 5 mins every week). I got rather good at winning the sweep as I would visit midweek and say such things as ' Did you see the size of that black cat that just ran from behind your loft' we would then discuss this mystery cat. come friday night my 50p would go on ' a huge no massive black cat came from under the loft and scared the bird just as it was going to land'. Saturday would come clock checking and someone would ask how he got on 'well this huge............ laughing all the way to the bank with my 5 x 50p winnings  ;D
