Releasing Captive Bred Birds Into The Wild.
gnasher16 replied to fireman's topic in Cage and Aviary Birds
Just shows as much as we think we know.......nature always knows best.....................i often wonder what happens to these racing pigeons that dont return home whether they survive off their wits or just succumb.....i wouldnt imagine they last long. -
Releasing Captive Bred Birds Into The Wild.
gnasher16 replied to fireman's topic in Cage and Aviary Birds
Fascinating stuff.....i wonder then how many generations of captive breeding it takes a wild bird species to lose its........wildness....for want of a better phrase. Sounds like the bird had a lucky reprieve there Fireman......interesting little story though. -
No doubt the bully and bandit sympathisers will express their sorrow .............i mean we cant have people feeling offended now can we !..............id spend some time thinking up something to be offended about myself but im saving up to be Jewish instead !

Denny Mancini you mean yes he died a few years back,Duff was the last of that generation he was dealing with the massive names of the sport in England people like Jarvis Astaire,Levene,Terry Lawless,Ernie Fossey.....all gone now.... these men paved the way for people like Frank Warren,Hearn etc to get British fighters top money on par with the yanks.....they were the driving force in the game in Britain it was their wisdom and guile that got the money flowing for British fighters..... Duff had great vision he could see fights before they were even thought of he got the timing for his fighters
-
Duff knew the game inside out he could do it all manage,promote,matchmaker.....he was a proper old school hustler who could work a pound note as well as anybody could.....he wasnt an intelligent man but was very streetwise i remember years ago when he knew my ol fella and would give me and my brother free tickets for fights at the Royal Albert Hall when we were kids,then later on in the ,s i crossed paths with him a few times.................didnt see him for years after that until a couple of years ago an old boy i knew wanted to go and visit him as they were old friends and i took him,Duff w

City are just about the strongest side ive seen in recent years i cant see them slipping up.

With a name like Monek Prager from Krakow.........................id say he might just be Jewish
-
. See micky duff popped his cloggs the other week. Went to his funeral day before yesterday cracking turn out......so maybe he wasnt as universally despised as everyone thought ............im sure he had his good points and he was certainly a respected figure.

Actually, did I mention that west ham.......lol lol It has been making me chuckle for the last 5 years every time they lost a game here or there listening to the Man U fans saying " the old boy has lost the plot.......what's going wrong etc etc" Now maybe it is coming home to a few just what a fantasy land you have been enjoying..........so yeah, I will allow myself a little schadenfreude ! Lol lol By the way, did I mention west ham won the World Cup ? Lol lol Was at westham game just before xmas. That part of the world is really nice area round upton park haha £50 ticket it's bout as b

Lol. Honestly mate, i feel like i need a wash everytime i see that slimy snake charmer, he is just horrible. But he is making a living from the easiest job in the world. He slimes about spouting about things he WOULD do knowing full well he will never HAVE to do them. Dead easy. Bit like a THL hardman threatening over the 'net. Lol Keep gnasher out of this Aint you got any little sisters you could start on ? ......or dont they go on the internet Farage v Clegg debate.......puts me in mind of an Allardyce v Pulis champions league final tactical debate !
-
It was always going to be a battle of the sons and Franks boy just hasnt got it in my opinion......slick Eddie on the other hand was born for it..........still be a long time before we ever see someone do as much for young British fighters as Warren did though.

Get Them Grafting When They're Young...!!!!!!
gnasher16 replied to BORDERSCOT's topic in General Talk
Nah im only on the north/south thing.................. i think they are blinding walls got bags of character to them........and plenty strong enough as i once found out when i thought i could kick one over -
Get Them Grafting When They're Young...!!!!!!
gnasher16 replied to BORDERSCOT's topic in General Talk
lol. Come and have a go Already did all that as a kid..................we called them Lego sets !....................ok this is lego for grown ups but same outcome. -
Nobodies saying it wasnt a good goal Baw it was...............but for me it doesnt compare to a goal like the one of Bergkamps posted on this thread.......do you think Rooney would have been confident that ball was going in as soon as it left his foot ?.....i very much doubt it. That Bergkamp goal was a 60 yard pass that he took 3 perfect touches within 6 strides beating a defender and the goalkeeper.........he knew exactly what he was doing and had the confidence and ability to do it............Rooneys goal doesnt come close to it for me.

I always said a 3 year old could build them daft walls where you just balance rocks on top of each other -
Now if that boy grows up to be a bandit i,ll eat my hat !!......Looks like a proper mans gaff doing man stuff eating mans food ......cracking upbringing for a lad by the look of it.
-
Nice evening strolls,bit of sun on the back,smell of fresh cut grass,quenching the thirst,holidays,low tops/high skirts........................but all that go,s out the window this year its all about...............BRAZIL
-
Right gotcha thanks chaps .....The second pic i posted the bird hasnt got a proper crest its the result of a Fife and a Gloster,i just wondered if putting it with a crested hen would be an issue.............or maybe just stick with the Consort i suppose if its an ok sort....cheers.
-
Unbelievable......had everything that goal.......skill,balance,poise,technique,quickness of thought..............beats a hopeful punt up the pitch all day long in my book
-
Slow down mate you wont find a post on here where ive ever slated Rooney im a big admirer i think he,s a class act...........all im saying is it was a good goal but not great.....and certainly not the greatest goal he has scored as he stated himself...............he struck the ball cleanly and that was enough to beat a keeper who made a piss poor mistake.....................a good strike,a bit of luck and a bad goalkeeping error doesnt make a great goal in my book.
-
Good for you....nice little project its always going to look worse before it looks better but will be something to be proud of when finished....take plenty of pics they are great to look back on as it all comes together.
-
I was chatting to someone on here about Glosters some time ago but cant for the life of me remember who it was......i have a crested Gloster hen and the choice of 2 different cocks......is the one in the first picture a Corona ? and if so is this the best one to breed with my hen.....or the second picture is the result of a Fife cock and Gloster hen...............is it just personal choice which i use or is there a right and wrong way. sorry about size of the pics ive never quite sussed how to do that !
-
Not your cup of tea then me old china? Yeah alright winkle dont start talking footie just cos the ol blue and white hoops had a result today
-
I was pretty much in line with it.....it would of been f****n hilarious if it wasnt my team....you really would think a premier league goalkeeper would have some idea of where his goal is when he comes out of it.............Wilfs right a few feet out and it would of bounced over the bar.......when a shot relies that much on luck i cant see whats so great about it compared to a well worked goal.
