I see no reason why this topic shouldn't include you Don etc. There are many facet's to the way we all have an interest in the birds & none are more important than another, the way I see things. |

| I had two pigeons in a cage in a coal house in West Hartlepool when I was 8. Caught them by climbing church roofs. Did not race until I was 14. Fancier raced some for me from his loft in exchange for the cleaning etc, I did. YB's over the Channel. They did good. Then at 16 joined the Merchant Navy so quit for quite a few years. So not the longest racing on here by any means. PS. No longer climb church roofs! |
