| Bull's Head, Wilson |
Venue: Bull's Head, Wilson (nr Melbourne)
Weather: Dry
This was the last MH3 trail of the summer and with the imminent setting of the sun the hare was keen to get us off on time at 19:15. A reasonable sized pack, from memory: Bugger, Beer-and-Loathing, Trianal, Organ stops (welcome back after many years) and newcomer Artful. This was a fast moving pack, but still caught by a late Butcher's Dog by check number four despite giving us a five minute start.
No such hurry by Dobber and Lionel who were escorted around the trail by the hare at walking pace.
Hashers and golfers never mix well and Artful nearly had a memorable first Mickleover hash being narrowly missed by a wayward golf ball.
Inevitably the route went up Breedon Hill - sad to see the pub in Breedon has shut down. Immediately Butcher's Dog hit the front of the pack she reached check five which the hare had warned us as a check requiring "alertness". Bugger found the well-disguised path out of the wheat field, but only after Butcher's Dog had checked three false trails.
The long ON-INN followed the disused railway track back to Wilson, I did 4.7 miles in 54 minutes and this was the way I did it - Run 231.
I missed the start of the circle but returning to the bar was immediately awarded a DD for "competitive cashing" having pursued the bar maid for Olympic 50p coins. Only four to go now! Lionel got a long list of abuse and a DD for just about everything, followed by the hare for a good run.
Goodbye evening runs in daylight.
