I must admit I haven’t had it for a few years now. It will be a shame but it has mainly just become an advertisement tool for those selling pigeons and supplements. There was the odd decent article. Nowadays so much is on line anyway.

I got it wrong. I haven’t ever had the pigeon racing weekly. It was the British homing world I had. I stopped long before it went online.

Very sad to read this, unfortunately another sign of the decline in the number of fanciers around these days. I have to say back in the 80s & 90s I used to get all 3, the Racing pigeon, Racing pigeon Pictorial and the BHW. I am planning on getting the British Homing world again this year although I don't particularly like the current format of the paper so might just get it on line !!
