Hope all goes well Murray

Andy that will be one to watch for sure

[Buster121]

Let's hope it does

[Buster121]

That'll be your problem right there!
Went to the doctor last night. he took one listen to my chest and prescribed antibiotics and other stuff.
I have an infection on top of the emphysema and the bronchiectisis. In other words, I am pretty sick.
Why didn't I come sooner, he asked. Because I have been too bloody sick, I said. He couldn't argue with that.
I am not feeling any better at all, but I reckon in 48 hours I will be like a new one.

Hope you are mate, take it easy for a day or two and let the antibiotics do there job

[Buster121]

Wishing you well in the new venture mate

I took the cock birds for the first toss since the winter.
12 yearlings, and 2 two year olds.
It always seems strange, on the 1st of August race horses and pigeons have a birthday. So my young birds are now yearlings.
They had been fairly well educated before the winter.
Most of them are paired up, a few of them are on eggs, and others are courting. So I was pleased to see that most of them trapped reasonably quickly on their first go.
When the excitement of that had settled down, I let them all out, and they flew and played for 2 hours before finally all dropping in.
I couldn't be more pleased.

Well done mate

I gave them another short one after work yesterday.
I got held up for a while at some road works, and when I got home most of them were in the loft. A couple of younger ones were messing about.
I let them all out and they flew very well for ages.
I am very pleased with the pigeons, but doubts are growing about the races. The race area includes some fliers who are flying 40 kilometres further and to the south east.
So I am going to be the short marker, and out to the west. The drag will go past me about 6 or 8 kilometres away. I will have to do some serious training to make them break away and come to me.
It will be interesting

Good on yer mate, that is my problem as well furthest west and give overfly to all and birds get dragged over

[Buster121]

Did they beat you home mate makes you wonder if they know exactly what there doing or playing us

[Buster121]

Great news mate and wish you well for Saturday
