The excitement of getting new pigeons, it never leaves us, ever since I first entered a loft at 6 years of age, us pigeon men will only ever understand, like the first sip of a pint lol best of luck and hello from Dublin Ireland 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
Hi Stephen , i once met four famous pigeon fanciers from Ireland , Walter Thompson, Henry Beatie , Billy Irwin, And Jack Gilmour. who were on a visit to one of my good friends here in Edinburgh , Billy Irwin even sent over some birds for me , that was back in the eighties , Great times .
