What a lovely old pigeon.
What strain was he, king?

He was a Marley Westrop. A grandson of Marley's 'Rome' Cock who had only ever raced North, but was turned to be 9th Open Rome flying 918 miles. The following year it was back North to the Faroes to record 16th EM section, 48th Open flying 732 miles. Many would have then put the bird to stock but Marley sent him to Lerwick 565 miles the year after, a race point Marley won from 15 times.

Not many around like that mate.

Dehydration George, do you get a lot of headaches mate....9

Ahhhwww - glad you're feeling bit better George.
I dunno about you but I was never taught the importance of drinking water as a kid and as a result don't really like water.
Nowadays, all the kids have their little bottles and are told to have a drink every 10 mins or so.
Education is a wonderful thing.
Just get as much down you as you can George and hopefully you'll start to feel better.

Nice birds there George

Crackers them George
What is the chequer in the first pics.....
