QH3 Run 893. Wilford Green Pub and Kitchen, Nottingham



RUN #893
Date : Monday 25th January 2016
Location: Wilford Green Pub, Nottingham
Hares: Too Tuf and Chicki
Weather: Dry and Mild
Pack size: 9

As our RA was one of the hares for this evening's trail I had guaranteed a dry run.  It was not looking good when we left home at 18:30 in an absolute deluge of rain. Rain that had not even been forecast. What's a hash guarantee worth anyway. We needn't have worried, by the time we arrived at the Wilford Green it was perfectly dry and a mild evening for January.
A relatively small pack set off in the wake of Butcher's Dog and Trianal though a lot of good checks meant the pack stayed together. Even Trianal was kept within viewing distance. Malteaser was our sole walker tonight deciding she wasn't going to run as she didn't want to get her hair wet. Surely walking the trail exposes your hair for twice as long? However, Malteaser did seem to keep up with the pack calling into question her genuineness as a walker.
We have hashed in this area many times but this was the first time QH3 had run from the Wilford Green Pub (there was a hash from its previous incarnation as The Maypole on May Day 2001). With the new Clifton tramline cutting through the area there were indeed virgin paths to be run.
Chicki as RA quietly led an indoor circle, DDs given to Malteaser (alleged walker); Cadi (lost property, prepared to follow anyone that was running); Trianal (NOT going off trail for once); and Jamie (abusing drug abusers - subjecting some young lads sitting in the dark on a bench with his flashing (light). Despite everything the hares still only managed a 12% (or did I write that down wrongly?).
Announcements again were very brief as the hareline doesn't have a hare until 6th March! Still we have the hash awards night at the VAT & Fiddle on 6th February to look forward to.
On On..... Durex
