Confucious said in his infinite wisdom that a man could make Gold from straw if he had the patience and dedication. Therefore a man in his infinite wisdom will buy pedigreed strains of British Tipplers and he will fail with them. The dedication, the expertise, the extremism cannot be sold along with the specimens. There is no warranty with an issue of "bought" Tipplers. A man either makes them or he breaks them. He handles the raw material from which he produces success or failure. He should not blame the founder of the strain if it fails in his hands. He should not give undue credit to the founder or supplier if the issue succeeds in his hands. Always remember that from day number one these pigeons are "Yours" and that they will have to adapt if they are to succeed. There has to be flexibility in ever strain. Such pigeons must be tailored to suit you, or, you will have to be tailored to suit them.
