HOMER49 Posted February 20, 2010 Author Report Posted February 20, 2010 Frank, agree with what you are saying, we all try to do something along these lines but it is not always possible, and you still have to pay for an extra 1 or 2 baskets,whats the birdage in your club.Also when the transporters meet up i would reckon that any short baskets will be identified and filled up,(im not talking about baskets with 24 birds in them) but the club has still paid for transportation of that short basket which is now going nowhere. Hi Davie Once the baskets leave your club house they ARE NOT opened or filled up in any way This WAS practiced years ago when clubs were sending away baskets with under 10 birds in them and this was only done when there was to many baskets for both transporters Been there and did it Cheers Homer 49
Guest vander mungo Posted February 20, 2010 Report Posted February 20, 2010 iv,e watched this thread from beginig,seems some people put there own quibs about,how much it costs to send there birds, and who,s taking them.surely the wellfare of the pigeons come first. SAFETY IN NUMBERS lets face it our sport is in a decline, lets pull together
Novice Posted February 20, 2010 Report Posted February 20, 2010 iv,e watched this thread from beginig,seems some people put there own quibs about,how much it costs to send there birds, and who,s taking them.surely the wellfare of the pigeons come first. SAFETY IN NUMBERS lets face it our sport is in a decline, lets pull together Of course the welfare of the birds is paramount but surely the race cannot be fair if birds competing in the same federation are transported to and held at a race point in different transporters. The internal temperatures can vary considerably from one to another giving some birds a distinct advantage. By the way Mungo I waved to you as you passed the traffic lights going to Tesco today but you were obviously deep in thought.
Guest vander mungo Posted February 20, 2010 Report Posted February 20, 2010 right,got it now thats why i did,nt win the big 1 this year,birds were on wrong transporter, rubbish pigeon minded all the time never saw you m8
Novice Posted February 20, 2010 Report Posted February 20, 2010 right,got it now thats why i did,nt win the big 1 this year,birds were on wrong transporter, rubbish pigeon minded all the time never saw you m8 My recollection was you were not even at the race in question so would be unlikely to be aware of the facts. But this is neither the time or place to disuss this.

Davie DAVY DOES HOMER NOT MEAN THAT THE BASKETTS ARE ONLY FILLED UP IF THERE IS A FEW TO MANY FOR THE TRANSPORTER. THOT HE WAS MEANING THEY DONT FILL UP THE BASKETS IF THERE IS ROOM FOR THEM ALL.. JMO

THOT HE WAS MEANING THEY DONT FILL UP THE BASKETS IF THERE IS ROOM FOR THEM ALL.. JMO STB, dont agree Homers saying that this was done YEARS ago but does not happen now, which is rubbish, to let you understand Lanarkshire have two transporters,no way would Lanarkshire put on a second transporter if short baskets could be filled up on one transporter, and as i said i would not expect them to. Davie
Guest bigda Posted February 21, 2010 Report Posted February 21, 2010 thats why the 28 bird rule came, but i suppose the basket was meant, to take 35 birds at one time, so a 200 basket trailer has the capability of taken a extra 1,400 birds in a short hall race if needed which equates to 50 baskets. a £475 saved to the fed :o

I compete to win and I enjoy watching every last one return. Because of the increased hazards they now face I am even more conscious that they should not be handicapped before release due to second class accomodation. Yes I did take exception to a comment made by someone ignorant of the facts to which I referred. Similarly I hope you also have an outstanding season.

Frank, was talking to some of your members earlier tonight, they were telling me that you have been paying 50p per bird for the past three seasons. Anyway got some of my own figures wrong for birdage in the two lanarks clubs that i am a member of, for 2010 Blantyre 50p per bird, East Kilbride 45p per bird. Davie

Davie Davie, its what the fed is charging that we are talking about, not the individual clubs. :-/ We are not interested what extra the clubs put on top of the fed birdage.

Davie hi davie, aye and last year was the first time we covered our prize money thanks to the birdage from derek hay and another lsc member using our club for basketing this year we have lost a member to blantyre for health reasons who sent a big team most weeks and with derek and co not using our club facilities we might have to make up a good few quid in prize money

Davie Hi Davie Repeat to you LF baskets are NOT opened once they leave the club premises FACT lowest amount of baskets on the second trailer is 7 yes seven baskets on a 192 basket trailer sent to a race FACT the second trailer regularly has 20/30/40 and is sent to the race FACT LF has no transport manager the job is yours if you want it call 01698 375389 FACT you say you attended Andersons yard in Newhouse to change birds over yet nobody I spoke to has any recollection of you being there If I hung myself by my previous post this one just buried YOU call the above number and get THE FACTS as I DID Cheers Homer 49
