OUR STORY

We are two pigeons who have known each other a long time. We used to roost on a department Store, but then everything changed and now we fly around the world telling our tail!

Our handlers have known each other since they went to college together in Bristol ten years ago... Since then they've both had what they call a 'side hustle' in retail which is how they're the best to help us out with our show.
