geordie1234 Posted February 28, 2013 Report Share Posted February 28, 2013 One Track mind! Everything focused on the two inland SNFC nationals and if our team of 8 come through that hopefully one or two over the water for our first time in 20 years. Would like to do well in the SNFC Yb national again but trying something completely new with yb's this year so could fall flat on ourfaces but if that happens will revert to tried and tested means. Hoping for a good breeding season, eggs due in about 5 days. All the best to everyone for this season. Andy All the best mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geordie1234 Posted February 28, 2013 Report Share Posted February 28, 2013 Hope my plans work out but they could go up in smoke at any time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony C Posted February 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2013 Hope my plans work out but they could go up in smoke at any time Its very rare that things turn out as planned Geordie. As the season goes on plans start to become unraveled. The experience you gain by trying to get things back on track is the making of a pigeon fancier................. the longer you race pigeons the more you can look back on past problems/solutions and hopefully adjust accordingly. If this game was easy lots of us would have chucked it in by now all the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnQuinn Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 I See a post of mine got removed, but its ok for some 1 else to take a pop at me and that stays, we will see about that I removed 5 posts from this thread Billy, they were off topic and developing into a slagging match, NEITHER of which are acceptable at any time on this site. We like to think we can conduct ourselves in a fit and proper manner on PB, we also know that this is not ALWAYS the case but less is best in either scenario. Posts are not removed lightly and members have a right to post frustrations and or a different point of view from other members as often happens but the posts i removed, including your own, were nothing to do with the thread topic which is Members hopes/expectations for the coming season. Hope this clarifies things for you. atb John. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bullcock Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 We got made redundant last year and both have new jobs working 12 hour shifts, so this has forced us to give up the widowhood system, but this will be the best thing for distance flying, so for this year we are natural and going to be concentrating on the National races and hope to send to all the nationals bar the 1st inland, and hope for an early arrival and good returns, winning Section F in the gold cup would be our main goal and anything else is a bonus.Good luck for the coming year to all PB fanciers.Morris Bros.

Rooster J. Cogburn Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 Aim last year was to to end the season with more pigeons that had flown the channel than the previous season,its much the same this time round. Hope to send a strong team to Alencon.Picked out the best dozen or so birds in the loft,will see what hand we've been dealt nearer the time. Need to box a bit more clever this season.Had to do A LOT of improvising last year and sent many of the birds to races I wouldn't have wanted as my first choice.Some measures in place this season to avoid these mishaps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REDROCKET Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 Their dont appear to be many honest answers to the question asked so let me be the first to give an honest reply.. I shall endeavour to stick it up you's in every race I compete in as I intend to win them all Nationals included and if you lot cannot admit to wanting to do the same as me then you are in the wrong game. JMO. LOL.Of coarse we all want to win every race we enter but some of us know our limits and hopes in my case I'd be happy with my honest answer but we will see how things go.
