Title: Insane price
Post by: BazaJT on 19 March 2019, 08:29:34
Described as "The Lewis Hamilton" of the pigeon racing world Armando has sold for a record price of $1.4m :o :o :o Apparently at 5yrs old its racing career is over and has been bought for breeding purposes.The previous record price was 340,000 which still seems an insane price for a pigeon.Anyway i'm off into town with a net to bag a few pigeons and knock them out on the bay of e,after all I'd not be the first to flog a few fakes on there :D :-X

Best hope he still has some lead in his pencil.

Five years seems pretty elderly for a  ' flying rat '...... :y

Speckled Jim's can be quite tasty when cooked right.  Not sure it is worth a milleon squids though, I would just dispatch a couple from the garden.

Maybe, maybe not.

Insure the little sod against early demise. Line up some equally high performing ladies for him to have his wicked way with and you could be on to a tidy little earner.

That aside, China already has more millionaires (and billionaires?) than any other country, so maybe just a wealthy man/woman indulging in their hobby. In which case, good luck to them I say.  ;D
