QH3 Run 755. The Lady Bay, W Bridgford, Notttingham. 26/03/2012

A Monday evening hash starting in daylight - back to British Summer Time, though we can't pack away the torches just yet. Hare: Butt Plug, location: Lady Bay, West Bridgford, Nottingham. Even Too Tuf and Chicki made the start  joining a pack swelled in size by the addition of Dobber and Lionel from the Mickleover Hash again (size being numbers rather than implying anything else).
Chicki progressed from using her GPS just to tell the time to nearly getting a location. We were withinin one button-press of starting the GPS and the bloody thing went into sleep mode whilst waiting for the ON OUT. The first half of the trail saw Chicki engrossed in trying to restore time.
In hashing circles this was what is known as a "tight" trail. Over 5 miles long (see Run 755) but never going too far from the Lady Bay. A SCBs dream run. This featured crossing over and under Trent Bridge twice. Short of putting flour on the river bed the hare did a good job of hiding it well.
The circle was led by stand-in RA Chicki - anyone noticed how good the hashing weather has been since our "elected" RA Silent Pants has moved away to Lincoln? There was a welcome back to Scrooge which was also made into a farewell just in case we don't see him again for a while. Further awards to:
Malteaser - again a FRB and complaining about too many bars.
Lionel - something French
Durex - Chicki's failed Garmin GPS consultant
Skids - almost having her name (*KIDS) on the hotel menu advert
Chicki - Nice weather
Butt Plug - Good run (but not as good as Rasher's)

  1. Appropriately this hash was observed by Gatecrusher running in the opposite direction down Fox and Hound roads with Durex fully ahead of the pack by 100 meters. (when I say running, I meant my startled turqoise Yaris was running) Despite vigorous waving the hashers were unable to see me in full flight.
