4 Car pile up.........

just got back from hospital, was involved in a 4 car pile up around tea time.........cars a right off.

did manage to retrieve the racing pigeon weekly and a packet of nyfuramycin from the car tho before the tow truck took it away.............

did you cause it david

glad your ok mate

no, not this time............. was minding my own buisiness and a car smashed into the back of the car behind me, then the car behind me hit me.........then i hit a car infront, was a big bang so the original car must have been going at some speed.......there were 3 fire engines there and they had to cut the roof off one car to get the people out, and there was 6 ambulances there and the road closed off........ my rear wheels were off the floor with the red golf behind stuck underneith.

terrible ,like alex says hope you ok

glad your ok david mate

I just have 1 toss at 25km then 1 toss a week at 15km

can't toss a lot the BOB will stuff you up I live in the bush

thanks darren, more inconvienient more than anything........was part exchanging the car in over the next month or so but this will hold things up i would emagine.

dont know how i will go on about the private plate i have on the car, suppose i will need to speak to the DVLA or i could end up loosing it if the car is written off........

yes barry, it seems we all have the same problems with the hawks/bops...........mine have had about eight 25 mile trainers and two 10 milers, the reason why im having a couple of 50 mile trainers is because im planning to jump them in to reed which is approx 130 ish miles and my birds have only had a couple of 56 mile races last year as ybs so they are very inexperrienced as yearlings............

you sure she'll let ya borrow it after that mate


ALL jokes aside though mate glad your safe an sound mate

hi barry, my cocks are on widowhood so once they have had a proper race i will stop training them and just exercise round home twice a day.................i think normally if they have raced regularly as ybs i wouldnt send them 25 miles as i dont think they need this distance........i would have taken them approx 14 mile.
