Ive added a let board on the front of the loft ready for an ETS or a stall and it has made it handy for the young birds getting out everyday for a good look around with a small pen for them to sit in ….pic’s below

Well Blackpool has been an gone for another year and in most lofts that mean’s only one thing breeding is under way or pairing at the very least and we wold like to take this opportunity to wish you all well ,who know this year you might breed the ever allusive champion we all strive for ! haha (I only wish…) but my thinking is this champions arnt born but made over time with dedication and hard work and yes I hear you that are shouting what about lady luck well her as well but I been rased to belive “you only get out what you put in” I can hear the voices in my head over and over again! (Im not saying I hear voices) but you get my drift… well back to Blackpool I dont know what other people thoughtbut to me the old place looks tired and the winter gardens needs a good lick of paint for a start ,but as allways the place was packed and with so many followers its sure to continue!
I had the pleasure to meet Martin pike and friends who seamed to be having a good time…pic below
