So I came up something for everyone to get involved with over the winter on a post about the algarve if anyone wishes to check it out the prize Is a bird of your choice from a selection of our best breeding pairs with delivery also paid for, but so far we only have three people who have give it a go I'd ask if anyone wishes to give it a go do it over this week! if by next weekend it's only the 3 who have give it a go and no more have joined ill re evaluate it and possibly just give a bird each to the 3 who have give it a go! All the best Danny

Very nice gesture Dan. I would have thought people would be biting your hand off.
It's not for me I'm afraid, I don't race sprint birds.
Might still have a go though just for a bit of fun but I'm guessing the 3 that are already committed don't want anyone else in now after that statement

Dave I don't race at all these days event though I often think of starting again, if I was lucky enough to win and Danny allowed it I would donate mine

Be careful about what you offer, Danny.
Delivering one to me would be a big exercise.
