Twas a wild and windy Monday when Zen and I
arrived at the Hash. We circled up in the cold wet darkness. A
volunteer was requested for the words. I got total amnesia and forgot
Wigwam’s name pointing out that as he had both arms inside his T shirt
he couldn’t write anything. I found I had just volunteered myself.
We set off. A couple of long short splits and a regroup by the lake
(Lake?. What lake?). Teapot said it Ewan’s too far and retired to the
pub with Broken Man. 3 ish and 5 ish was promised.
Across Occombe farm car park and into the woods. Most trees look the
same in the dark and the wet. There was uphill and downhill. Zen fell
over in the mud. We came out at the little church at Cockington. At that
point the Pack got a bit split up. The trail went uphill and finally
came out in a housing estate. Bobbi Ball was there with his camper van
and mulled wine and cheese mmmmm. Fallen Woman and I had a sit down in
the van and I am ashamed to say I bailed at that point.
Georgy P’orgy arrived having lost Pilt Down man and the dog. She was
upset about the dog. A couple more people arrived but we had lost Pilt
Down and Smellie (no surprise there!)
Bobbi Ball drove the van and got lost in the housing estate. Eventually we found the lost ones back near the car park.
On down to the Manor Inn in Paignton with a good spread of food.
