| obviously not david, they want to jump on the same bandwagon holland is on. to be honest i cant see why we cant have the rings like they use in belgium.
What i would like to know is, out of the lads that use ets....how many use the lugs on the ring, i dont think theres many |

| had a look david but theres not much about.... did see though that pigeon racing is listed as a hobby, not a sport. If it was recognised as a sport it would be given more protection from predators it seems, but as its a hobby it isnt |
