The new look tabloid British Homing World is out now: https://www.britishhomingworld.com/

just got mine not open it yet

Mark Gilbert has first 7 pages

do you get yours delivered george ...?

yes David and it's folded in half really struggled opening up the pages

Have more respect for a allotment or back garden fancier than Gilbert.

Just look at his set up, bigger than a OL set up.

Bet his vet fees and medication etc; cost a fortune paid for by selling youngsters off all in the loft.

Not my type of fancier and feel his like spoil the sport.

Just my opinion.

Regards.

not keen on him either misty more because of the number of birds he sends to a race it don't look a advert more a write up 7 pages

Get mine tomorrow George.

Not interested in anything to do with him.

Would be more interested in knowing what he spends on vet fees and aids to win
which the grass root fancier cannot afford.

Also what he makes selling young ones etc;

he has a 5 page write up not 7 not many fanciers get that privilege

Don’t no why I bother with it takes about eight minutes to go through it then I give it to my mate if it wasn’t for him I’d cancel it now and then you get a good write up init

Do not like the new layout will probably cancel it, too much run of the mill stuff and photographs etc; that are only of interest to those on them.

Cancelled the RP for the same reason when they changed the layout.

No real attempts made to sort out the sports problems which should be the first aim of the BHW.

Regards.

Massive improvement I reckon, at least I can read it now, the old version used microscopic print, bigger clearer photos too, thumbs up from me.
Plus when it's opened up the sheet size is exact same size as the baskets I use, put a full copy in and just take a soiled top sheet off after each use, same as the Racing Pigeon Mag. Works for me anyway.....

Just hope some of your pigeons do not read some of the rubbish in it barnie or you may have some very upset pigeons.

Believe in dual purpose but there are limits, no doubt when you take the sheets from the baskets they may indicate what the pigeons think.

Do agree with barnie the print is much better than the book was and it will fit in the bottom of the baskets they didn’t tell you it was going up to 1.85 unless I missed it in the book

Content as far as I am concerned most important thing, no good being able to read
run of the mill stuff.

The Hall Report said it needed bringing up to date and it does.

Regars.

Yes, got mine today George, think maybe holdovers problem with the club results.

Must admit I like the dedication and commitment of the Bell family and by gum they have bred some fabulous pigeons for many years.

Long may they do so.

Other than that there is just run of the mill stuff.

Regards.
