With that Dedication you deserve to get one Walter all the best hope you also get your silver award

We obviously have two completely different systems I have never flagged a bird in 45 years and only time they were in a training basket this year was one 15 mile toss before racing commenced

Many Roads lead to Rome

Took a weeks holiday for this race coz a missed ma hen coming last year but am no sending. Was 6 weeks into the program (3 no times) before discovering the missing tail feathers and feather scarring on their wings was a bloody cat at the loft and no Percy in the sky.

Doos still feart tae fly down to the garden for a peck about so am just gonna have tae bite the bullet, write this year aff and wait til next year.

It had taken my old 2004 Cattrysse Ck (father of my loft) a blue yrlg hen and a yrlg Ck I bred especially to pair tae my Reims hen, half Bro to her..... that's when I tippled the problem wasn't in the sky.

Doos are still feart as hell when they're oot despite the problem getting sorted a fortnight ago......whits yer best guess as tae how long it'll take them tae get their confidence back ??

Me and Grahamie have been back and forward about what money goes where.....now neither of us are in pigeon racing for money but we like to show our fellow fanciers that we can recognise what's in form. We have 5 candidates, 2 hens and 3 cocks, but have no idea what is best so we are putting them all to 50p and see what happens
