Sandy sounds like you will have to upgrade your video card on your hard drive.

I had the same problem with viewing the vids from photo bucket. Figured out the problem. You need to down load a plug in. I think it was the shockwave or flash player plug in to view them photo bucket videos. You can down load it from photo bucket.
Hope that helps...

P.S. It is a side show.

Diamondrollers I would like to say thank you for sharing that piece of history. I have read Bills book and seen one or two of those pictures but that my friend will be imbedded in my memory for ever.
Deepspin posted one of Bills writings from the 60's and personally I learned a few things that I did not know as they say knowledge is key.

Sal,
Thank you... I really enjoyed looking at all those pictures. You can just imagine the birds and people that Bill came into contact with.
Obviously by his accomplishments he was a very gifted individual. It's a shame that he had some fallen outs with other folks within his club. He was the engine and everyone should have stayed on board for the whole ride.
I only wish I was involved in rollers when Bill was around.

Really enjoyed the slide show. The birds were very lean and strong. Thanks for sharing.
Hey Chai... to know more about who Bill was. You need to get your hands on Bill Pensoms home videos (1 and 2) shot in 8mm film. He was more than just a good Roller man, he was a great pigeon man as well. In those videos, you can clearly see that he had a ton of different breeds. A top breeder and shower of Modenas and Rollers. His loft was so huge, you can actually drive thru it. Color birds... na. Different breeds... can you say pigeons... well he had them.

Without those guys I am not sure whare the Birmingham Roller in the US would be today. We owe a lot to Bill Pensom......he was a pigeon whisperer(LOL). We may have moved on, but we will never forget.

Great video, it would be great also to know who everyone was. Maybe you could number them somehow and some of the roller fanatics could fill in the blanks.
My father was a tippler man & talked about Bill's tipplers.
Anyways thanks for sharing.
