Very Happy Excellent, just shows we dont have to have massive lofts to compete.....just need to be sensible pick your races and get your entries in the best condition you can.


I remember many years ago whilst picking up a stray yb in Liverpool me & dad visited a chap by the name Irving......his back garden was surrounded by 3 multi blocks of flats (i each side and i at the back), his loft faced his house and you stepped from his back door onto a 2x2 paved walkway and then into his loft

Unbelievable (we never complained about traps again),,,,,and he more than held his own

Will say the same about Dennis Duffy of Bilston, Mark his loft was 3 feet of the gound and 4 feet from his back door and by did his pigeons trap and he also won his fair share
