George is a man of himself, I sat and had many chats with George, and what fun we had, Talking about his life as a kid growing up, he was a good lad growing up in a tough area. He shared with me that will always stay with me, about his early life. George is a member that always said how it was, I remember turning up at his home and he had a sack of bird mix. He took all the corn out of the bag, and I asked him, "What are you doing?" He said my birds don't like it. But they do love cress. He was a great guy to be with. So funny. This was the side i loved spending time with him, Every bird in the loft he was so proud of, and i would have to handle everyone. And give him my thoughts. He is a guy that everyone would love to meet.

Sadies Lofts home of decent birds just a useless loft manager, and now a confirmed loser but proud :D :D

Yes I remember him well off the old chat. Was always a prominent poster and always up for a bit of banter.
Fingers crossed that they might be able to stabilise him and get him settled for his families sake.

I still have the pedigree, from the best bird George bought. It was a cracker Buster. You may remember it Buster, a red cock.

I was only looking at the pedigree last night Andy, the guy that sold the red cock to George. Lives 3 mile from me.
