A return and farewell... .

...on Monday 15th June at Run No 1590 and return to our 1500th Run venue at Lower Whiddon Farm, Hare BOBBIBALL assisted at the last minute by MELLON PICKER (as Bobbi had injured his knee cycling) After finding the concealed parking in a field of long grass the Pack formed up for GM SOAPY to welcome several returnees among them METER MAID, FLYING PIG and visitor SLOPPY SECONDS from Herts H3. DRAG ACT was awarded her “special” t shirt for finding a four leaf clover and there are other shirts waiting if you can produce that rare specimen! The pairs trail, mainly off road marked in flour and sawdust, led us across the first fields towards the sound of rapid gun fire near Owlacombe Farm fortunately we turned away heading on-on uphill, several good checks slowed the pack as we wound our way through woodland across fields down lanes and then the inevitable long climb back up the fields towards Higher Widdon with red deer crossing our trail on the way On Home. The farmer had kindly allowed us to set up our bar in a barn while his wife assisted with the excellent sandwiches which along with BOBBI's other food and SOAPY's delicious cream scones made an excellent supper. Down Downs were awarded to :-
RASPBERRY NIPPLE a farewell as she heads off to NIGERIA for 3 months to help sort them out.
FORREST spotted taking a hidden! leak in the parking field.
TEAPOT for parking confusion and somehow producing top naval award winning son.
BOBBIBALL received his 600 RUNS badge and a cream scone as he drank it.
SLOPPY SECONDS our visitor also duly received his.
An excellent evening well done the Hares!
On on to next week at Preston seafront “Life's a beach hash” BYO Food & Booze BBQ, on Bogof's birthday. NB THIS IS NOT a joint hash with Haldon H3
