trying to retrieve my bird

Hi Lads I need a bit of help, saturday as gareth has already stated on here we had a smash and a lot of our birds have gone to the north of england.
I just had a non fancier contact me from somewhere near manchester with a yb of mine in a warehouse, hes caught the bird and will give me his adress tomorrow as hes in work on nights. I wondered if there is a fancier close by who could get the bird for me and keep it till I get a courier sorted, would be better for a fancier to get it for me. Help would be greatly aprieciated and I would give money for diesel ect no probs...thanks.

if it had been nearer martyn i would have got it for you, manchesters quite a way from where i am im afraid..........

what about contacting this site as they have local fanciers registered with them to collect birds found by none fanciers.

hi david its bin a nightmare of a race ive got birds in doncaster and nottingham shropshire guna cost a fortune.neva nown it so bad mate

i think we have members in nottingham garath, are they found by fanciers ? can the courrier do it in one round trip to save on costs ?

David thats a good site mate never seen this site before

thanks david I will have a look, I thought we had members in manchester area, Im not quite sure yet where it is I will update tomorrow when the chap gets home from work, as hes been on nights and will contact me tomorrow so it might be just close to manchester. I might just drive up there if I cant get any joy.

I have to go near Nottingham Sunday at the very latest if you want me to collect that bird for you. I would go earlier but Notts is couple of hours from here.

Ps: I'm not sure of the logistics between notts and donny but if you want and its close enough I will collect that one too?

Just been on that website and what a great idea the site is and its just what I am looking for thanks David...I have a number of a fancier who will collect from manchester from the non fancier..magic
I might even join it now and put my name forward for this area as its the best thing for pigeons I have seen in a long time, all our members should know about it you never know when you need it.
