It was such a shame that you had to get rid of the birds. You had some great pigeons there. I do think that you started to lose a bit of spark when you stopped racing your own birds. But you had some fantastic birds in your stock loft. It was great to have had the couple of visits myself and Roxanna made to see you and Maria. Good to see you still have an interest in them though.

Just to let new members know, i had to finish in the sport because of ILD, so my problems with my lungs are getting worse. My wife and I were moving to Spain Last year, but then we found out my wife has vascular dementia. So that put a stop to us moving to Spain. So i am now taking part in OlR again, not like racing your own and having a loft in your back garden. But it helps staying in the sport.
