Squeaker (4/8)

  1. Ok mate. Thanks for your help. For the sake of a few seconds might be safer to stick with the thimbles. Cheers
  2. Hi, I have a silver case mechanical STB and a red quarz STB. Am I right in thinking that both these clocks can now be used with out thimbles?
  3. Hi, None the fanciers you know will consider you a pest. They will be only to happy to give you all the help and advice you need. The number of fanciers in the sport is in decline so nearly all fanciers will do what they can to encourage and help newcomers to the sport. With out newcomers in a few years they will have no one to race against.
  4. My little girl will be pleased At least now when she gets her free rings we can use them as I point blankly refused to use the unaltered rings.
  5. I don't keep prisoner stock as a rule but now and then I see a must have. I get into the habit of catching them up before exercise, but one absent minded slip and the must have is gone :'(
  6. Definitely not been raced as the guy only did dove release. Gave my birds open loft since 7 this morning but no sign. Think I need a stock loft!
  7. Sent the guy an email earlier. said he's been looking but not seen him. But your right, he may just head back when he gets hungry.
  8. Thats a dead end. The guy only lives about 7.5 miles away but there is no loft there now.
  9. Hi all. Bought this bird last year and been extremely careful to catch him before opening up the loft. Yesterday let my guard down and forgot! Result one white cock on the landing board for a few seconds and then off. Last seen roof hopping a few streets away just as it got dark. Had my birds out all day hoping to pull it in but have not set eyes on it once. If any one manages to get him in give me a shout. Cheers guys.
  10. Thanks Gail. Your a star. And thanks to all you other guys input. Cheers.
  11. I've not actually seen the ring only in photo's but surely it cant be good to have a ring with what amounts to 2 hooks on. What were the rpra thinking?
  12. Hopefully the RPRA will have thousands left over so that realise members aint happy.
  13. I guess that might mean many RPRA members have sourced standard rings from other unions if they ran out so early.
