That sounds much better, your first reply sounded as if you owed Del some money and made a hasty retreat :emoticon-0136-giggle:

I spent all of 5 mins at this show ...the venue was horrendous to say the least in my opinion ..would be much better in a hall , looks more professional ...The greenhouse location just didnt do it for me , it wasn't the right place to have a pigeon show in my opinion and it smelt of dirt , Location is good mind you and i suppose the tea room next door suits most people and the show organizers , But i feel it would be better suited in a Hall atmosphere ...Anyway ...people seemed to have enjoyed it none the less , but it wasnt for me ...And i only counted around 10 different breeds or there abouts on show ...Another sign fancy pigeons are on the decrease .

Sorry you didn't enjoy the show mate. Its a show that's gaining in popularity every year with most people feeling the lighting for judging is better than any hall. I am surprised you saw only 10 breeds - this year there were over 700 entries with 39 different varieties (your ghents would have been very welcome to take that to 40 types!).
