A little ditty about Bobby Balls Trail at the reservoirs
Nobody knew the way we were going, it started to rain, then it was snowing.
Past reservoirs and along narrow lane, four lefts, four rights then lefts again
Sat in their car alone in car park, Bobby and Dozy play I spy in the dark
We join them, and one by one more came, as hashers turn up the snow turned to rain.
After going wrong way 69 joins the gang, he parks here and there – 4 times moved his van!
Sat Nav’s new job is collecting the money. So don’t turn up late, it’s really not funny!
7.15 is the time that we’re told, its miserable hanging around in the cold!
Gone 7.30 at last we’re all there! I welcomed the visitors and summoned the hare
Bobby explained the trail that he’s planned, stood in the circle with flour in his hand
The longs and the shorts disappear into the wood, plenty of shiggy and log hopping good
Round the reservoirs and dodging the trees, following flour with the greatest of ease
We get to the Re-group Havoc eats the flour, 3 long short splits we were out for an hour
Relieved to be back, filthy dirty and cold, we had cheese, sausage rolls and cider that’s mulled
Counting the heads (who said head) two people missing - hadn’t got back and now it was pissing!
Guess who it was! - Yes Cold Tits and Dorris, been out too long and alone in the forest!
We called and we waited shone torches, dispelled. Went looking in cars, parked up and yelled.
Eventually they came running in at own speed. “Don’t go out looking, there is no need”
“We weren’t lost, we were ok, we followed flour, we knew the way”
While the rest of us looking out on patrol, Doris and Cold tits ate the last sausage roll!
Back at the Dolphin Winfield was waiting, with Mig Man and Wigwam gossip updating
Teapot had become a grandpa tonight, congrats to Desperate and Rent Boys baby delight.
Wide Receiver RA gave the down downs despite - Bobby Ball booking the pub on wrong night!
He laid three dots and then put a cross, and gave Dozy his torch with batteries a loss.
The trail was next to the reservoirs yet - Teapot couldn’t work out why his feet were so wet!
Cold tits got down down for going wrong way, eating the left overs, and leading Doris astray
Bright Yellow shoes and football boots for the run, Squash Balls was next with the down down fun
I got a down down my first run as GM and despite all the panic I’ll do it again.
A big thank you Bobby for laying last nights trail. And I hope as Grand Mattress I will not fail!
Next week Kingsteignton, Gallows Cross, t’wards Teigngrace. Get there early please - just in case…….............
you can’t find the car park its used for dog walking, We want to get going and not stand there talking!
