Believe it, or not !!!.

Strange people pigeon flyers at times. This tale is hot of the press, from the little fat bloke today . A good mate of his & a friend of mine, decided in his wisdom to take his birds for a toss from around 35 miles to tune them in ??? for the race on Saturday here etc yesterday. Did the normal thing by basketing his big team "30 odd" & jumped in his ute with 3 baskets on the back type of thing. Arrived at the toss point thinking to himself his birds were going to have a nice little header for the enjoyment factor. Unfortunately the 3 baskets he had were empty & not a pigeon to toss sadly & the report is he was spitting chips "Big time" for his major cock up . The story ends when he arrived home & there they were waiting for him in his garage, being some what confused & at the end of the day, they finished up having a big toss of around 20 metres at the best . So !!!, as I said etc believe it or not.

i take it he never secured the flaps on the basket

You read it wrong O/S he actually left them all in his garage etc & the baskets he thought had the birds in them was from his previous toss as such. Type of bloke who has his finger in far too many pies sadly & is for ever on his mobile talking waffle & believe it or not he is the number cruncher/money man for his fed as such .

One at times     feels sorry for certain people O/S . Hot off the press the number cruncher has done it again unfortunately. Took his clubs birds to the main centre "A good thing", to go on the transporter for the race today last night here & left all the paper work at his club for the race etc. Officials were not happy with his effort sadly. Sad but we all get past it & I suspect it's time he gave it some thought "Big time" .
