glad you joined us alex, your input has really beefited the site since you have been here.................dont know if you know but some of us members came togeather from an ebay pigeon group we had and we decided to start this site up which has proved a lot better than the ebay one, the ebay site is still there but no one ever goes onto it nowadays, i take a look every now and then just to see whats happening tho.


also some of our members i know from other sites ive been a members of over the years and sites which have closed down, so we came here too.

can you tell me how you found us alex....?

Remember you saying about the group before David, think its good you came to this one, doubt i'd have found out about the eBay group.

Found this site after I went on another one I didnt like (you know which one ) I signed up there a few days before this one, but never posted atall, and never went back, it didnt seem very nice, then looking on google for something, I found out about this one and signed up and the rest is history

yes i know wht your saying alex, the big sites are not very friendly unless you are in a clique......ive found most sites are like that tho and if your an outsider your always going to be an outsider, ive been a member of the site your talking about and over the 2/3 years ive been a member i think i have made one friend on it.......most of our members who i already knew befor we opened this site were from smaller friendlier sites who in some cases folded for one reason or another........

Yes you are right, not many sites where you are friends and speak to all the members that post. Thats the good thing about this one

yes thats true, if you go on the big sites and post on it you might get a few replies but no one gets to know you like they do here...........i know sometimes don and ian are like a couple of old women but even tho they will deny it they do have more of a bond than some members on the big sites.

Yep you are right, plus its only here where a thread will change topic about 60 times thats what makes it what it is though.

Think they like eachother more lately, they havent argued atall

dont speak too soon alex..........

yes you can guarantee, a topic will start off and within a couple of replies the topic has changed to something else, then after another 5 or 6 posts it changes to something else again.........they wouldnt allow it on the big sites would they

and then also, at the end of most topics ian and don are at each other.......

its all good fun though.

Don usually gets the last word in yes its all good fun, and no one takes it seriously which is good

Think people get ideas though when somethings said, it could be completely different to what was started, but they wouldnt have thought of it.

Yes the site is the best and i would'nt have it any other way

Even if Ian loves me

As long as everyone has banter and fun just shows how good the site is

ive grown to like topics changing all the time, it would be boring if it stayed the same of if "admin" wanted replies to stay on topic............

you are right david

relaxed, friendly, happy site david, also with some good members, keep it up lads.

Mick the site is brilliant mate but i think we all already know that mate but it just shows that there is sportmanship within the sport
