| Had mine too. But then to think some fanciers feel that the 'Race Season' or part could go on! If banned then 'Why' can't they collect fanciers birds and do it them selves! Yes, I can understand the disappointment, but not the logic. |

| The new regulations if nothing else should indicate the serious manner the Government view the situation and pigeon racing will not be on the agenda.
Common sense indicates to have any racing would be impossible or totally impracticable.
I think fanciers should be making arrangements and changes to that effect and reduce numbers accordingly etc;
I know the disappointment fanciers will feel but you have to face the FACTS.
Regards.

| Yes, just take all the possible precautions lads.
Sad but not unpredictable times.
Had to get up not in the mood for sleep too much to think about.
All the best to one and all in these trying times.
Regards. |

| yes , normally im one of those who can put worries to the back of my mind, i think about pigeons or other things that make me happy .......the wife says i can do it because theres not a lot in my head but this has slowly been getting to me the last few days, the government are not to be trusted anyway, and things will not be exactly as they tell us, but people need to realise this isnt a joke or a conspiracy , the threat is real. on another note, i read that some people will test positive for corona virus , IF THEY HAVE HAD A FLU JAB !!!! so the figures are not quite accurate we are being given ........makes you wonder eh . |

| I see it is now thought that 50% actually have this virus. Not surprised there none personally.
If out, and have a hand or such to touch... When out last, a week over, I carried a nigh wet rag soaked Disinfectant. Put my card in the hole in the wall. Paid the bills and took out some cash. Then taking the card out via the cloth I well wiped it! Some looks did I get eh! But the card before mine going in could have been put in by a hand having the virus! |

The money issue is a bit of a tricky one I suggest Daz under our present type climate. Short time ago here they were telling us money was back in favour, virus then comes along & no body wants to touch it now type of thing. & take care as another one fell of the perch here last night I'm a 69 year old male that was on a cruise ship, just hoping to have a trip of a life time sort of thing . ***** |
