blackpool pigeon show

just back from blackpool show, looks like a good time was had by all, met old freinds and also new, very good meeting up with some of the lads on this site,it was a pleasure to listen to rene!s wife singing,brilliant voice and very entertaining,i slogged around the show 2 days on crutchers as it is not very disabled freindly, i now have arms like popie, still enjoyed it ,though i think that will be my last year, think i will go where it is warmer for a week ten days about same cost as 2 days b/p ,as far as the attendance on sat it was very good, about average sun, stands were missing which is not good,it also closed early, i think this could well become a 1 day show, lets see where cash is alocated this year ,probably not back into the sport i will wager ?, got me an entrance form for the midland national ,will contact northern classic in due course,in the mean time i wish every body luck for the new season ,especialy the lads who will be getting some of my birds.  

closed early that don't sound to good edgie ...not good at all but at least you enjoyed yourself ...surely the show should be disabled friendly that don't bode well either ...just aswell I never went with the mrs ...hope you can ditch the crutches soon and get out and about atb

I'm glad you enjoyed your time there Edgie    crutchers would have been an
absolute pain in the A**E    I suspect. Just curious !!!!!!! thou, did you by chance see the Mark Gilbert pigeons etc as I would have loved to have run my hands over them.
