One is not required to talk about the kindness & generosity of certain members here on this forum, in helping out other members with birds at times etc. Most know who they are

but just let me tell you, not all fit in their basket as such I'm

sadly

. Now !!!. My old club when I first started here to my present address is going through a rough time unfortunately "100 members, now down to 20 odd" & they decided to have an auction to raise funds to help cover expenses which are running at around 4/5 thousand dollars

a year & they did a ring around of the top flyers here to see if they could help out, which most have done out of their kindness as they know in the present situation in our sport, we all need to help each other to survive in this day & age etc. But, sadly one man ???

& one man alone stood out from the crowd, by his lack of pertisapaition sadly on the day & here was years ago a club member also there, which made his grand effort from my point of view rather pathetic unfortunately. Now

some here would by now be beginning to think what's this bloke on about

I suspect

but the man under discussion here by his own words "Not mine" is a guru of our sport he believes & many may have read his books or bought his goodies which are on offer etc & I will leave this subject at that

& say

Well done Dr Spock etc, you are a real credit to our sport, not

.
