Hi John, I think this season will see a number of fanciers taking a serious look at the sport and making the decision whether to continue or call it a day, because as you have suggested ETS rings may increase, with fuel rising constantly, no doubt this will have a knock on effect to the cost of being part of this sport. Quite a lot of Clubs, Feds and Nationals are loosing membership, and this also results in costs going up for those that remain, I am fortunate to say I am a working man, but it is the OAP,s and unemployed that I fear for.

Hi Wull as Fifer stated I also have them, we obtained them the first time Raymond had a stall at Blackpool, and have strengthened our stock each year since then, I had 2 hens, a 3year old and a 2 year old at Clermont last year 524 miles, got the 3year old next morning and the 2 year old later that night. Cracking looking birds, I have a pair of youngsters in the HTH auctionhttp://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/emoticon-0137-clapping.gif

Now that hopefully most of us going to Blackpool will have their BHW Blackpool Special issue, what sale/auction have you picked out to attend? and why? while at Blackpool are you looking for a particular strain of pigeon, to take home?
