*important announcement*

Tomorrow's Pigeon Update is postponed due to an interview and then a (recovering) visit to the london wetlands centre.

Apologies for any distress this causes.

Aw shucks..that was gonna be the highlight of my day

 

[laurence]

just for you, Gary...

a large flock of seagulls has just flown past, heading west. ahhhhhh, if i had a photograph of them.

still no pigeons.

 

[Aperitif]

Best wishes for the interview. No pidgin English mind!

 

[Hugo15]

Good luck with the interview Laurence.

 

[laurence]

cheers guys

 

[Fab Foodie]

Best of luck from me too. Wow-em!
Might be best to keep the pigeon stories to the bare minimum though...

 

[alecstilleyedye]

get that job laurence! i'll keep the proverbial crossed

 

[Noodley]

How do we know it's a job interview? Maybe his pigeon bothering ways have caught up with him?

Good luck anyway.

Is this referring to that thread about how to kill a wounded pigeon?

Definitely don't bring that up unless asked

Unless it's for a 'Ray Mears kind of job'!

My bro once accidentally wounded a pigeon and the only way he had to kill it was, unfortunately, more of the same as what wounded it.

A lifetime of always coming third in pigeon races, always having to stand third on that little podium, having to suffer the ignominy of laughter from the other free garden birds?

I'd rather smash a pigeon with a hammer rather than slowly killing its soul and dreams

let loose a pergrine falcon

There was no 'slowly' about it. Quickest and most painless way to guarantee instant death, in the unfortunate situation where instant death is the only humane outcome.
With a hammer, you couldn't guarantee to kill it on the first blow, as you might miss its head and hit its tail or something instead, injuring it even more.

How the feck could you miss it's head and hit it's tail. "Arse from elbow" springs to mind.
