Ryan Hay Posted January 28, 2017 Report Share Posted January 28, 2017 Aye Dave nae the family's fault. A only named him so folk can Google and get a picture o the boy so they know not to let him in their doocote. I made that mistake then a few year later he was back and stole my doo that won my grandad memorial trophy. That was 7 year ago. A thought the boy would of sorted himself out by this time. Am sure someone would give him doos if he asked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roland Posted January 30, 2017 Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 Glad he has been caught, and will be prosecuted yet again. Maybe a mental institution this time. Sadly - which I fear is very rare to say the least, I haven't seen much help to the lady in terms of help / replacement. I, personally. have no such birds that the lady keeps. If needed, and a collection is the way forward for her, I will donate £20. Maybe this is such a case that Pigeon Basic funds can help with? I may be wrong in this regards and if so, please forgive my ignorance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest IB Posted January 30, 2017 Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 I tend to agree with Roland that this person must be suffering from a mental health issue and is long overdue treatment for it. I think it may also be difficult to replace birds that are likely to be old favourites to the old woman. I hope they are recovered, but maybes offering a small reward for their recovery would be a better option than buying in new? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showman Posted January 30, 2017 Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 . If needed, and a collection is the way forward for her, I will donate £20.

Valiant Fifer Posted January 30, 2017 Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 Lowlife does he even care about the consequences of his actions. People like that should be put in somewhere like Alcatraz. Pity we dont have somewhere like that here. Mind u would Carstairs no do for the likes of him. He's mental enough for it anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
