The reason that is, is because last Saturday, when I picked up the majority of my birds from someone in the club, I got a look round for about 2 hours, and he has birds from 05 that are retiring, all the way up till 2010. The only ones I can remember is 2005 Pink, 2006 Yellow, 2008, Green, and 2010 Blue ofcourse Can't remember 2007, or 2009 I had alot to take in |

Well my dad has always wanted bop in the past He used to work with someone on one, flights and displays and things like that. He then had Owls years ago. Then recently he got back into birds again because he has free time now, and he's known the secretary for years at Kempston so he helped us out starting with a couple of birds, and it's progressed from there. New loft is coming over the next few days, nothing huge but we do have a 20 odd foot shed that will be right next to it doing nothing, so theres room for future expansion |

Then recently he got back into birds again because he has free time now,and we thought about pigeons, and racing them. So then it was onto talking my mum into it, she came round eventually, so my dad spoke to the secretary at Kempston because he's known him for years . he helped us out starting with a couple of birds, then the recent birds came from a member of a different club, and it's progressed from there. New loft is coming over the next few days, nothing huge but we do have a 20 odd foot shed that will be right next to it doing nothing, so theres room for future expansion

Yep we will be Not looking to doing amazing, just perform well allround. If my dad hadn't got me interested we would have never started. My brothers interested in them too, but i'm not sure if he will pursue it. |

Yep I will be sticking about here, the members are really helpful with my questions, and hopefully in time I will be able to help other new members A nice friendly bunch, and I have learnt loads already reading. Best pigeon forum in my opinion (and i'm sure the other members will say the same ) And I can get in the show in November |

| yes the site has always been friendly alex, it seems that when there are thousands of members like some of the big sites it seems to be a battle ground for trouble.......... with our site being small in members everyone knows each other and is happy to help out, look forward to you entering the shows along with our other members too and also maybe you might join in a yb exchabnge like we did for 2010 ybs if we do it again. |

It's good to get to know people here, and as you said, it is much less of a battle. I look forward too, will see how I do And yep I would be interested in the yb exchange if it is done again, sounds great. |
