hello.i am coming back into the sport after 20 years away,i am in the process of securing a shed for my birds(which i do not have yet).i kept pigeons as a lad with my father who has since left the sport.as soon as i became interested in a different kind of bird,my interest left.but now five kids futher on, a wife and dog i have dedcided that this is the only thing missing from my life.as a lad i made my mark on the pigeon world at club level quite a few times.i really enjoyed myself.i live in south wales just outside newport in a small town called rogerstone.any tips, advice on all subjects would be greatly appreciated.my first job,a shed to build or buy.what are the pro,s and cons.paul
