Date: Sunday 2nd March 2014
Location: The Blue Bell, Desford
Hare: Wallington
Weather: Cold and threatening rain
Pack size: 13
This was a trail at the southern extremities of the Quorn hashing area set by 60th birthday boy Wallington. We were greeted by the unusual sight of Too Tuf and Chicki (along with chauffeur Butt Plug) being the first to arrive ten minutes BEFORE the start of the run. With rain in the air, Too Tuf was repeatedly told 'no prizes for guessing who is the RA today'. Yes, that honour was bestowed on Too Tuf, it did rain briefly at the start, but the powers of the RA kept the rain away until we were all on our way home. He also got berated by GM Chicki for suggesting that it would be a short-sleeved T-shirt run.
The hare was going all out for 'trail of the year' handing out chocolates at the
start. At approximately 3 miles this was certainly one of the shorter trails we've done, but two river crossings and a drinks stop padded out the time. Calories burned on this run were more than offset by chip butties and chocolate cake awaiting us at the ON INN.
Party poppers were available during the circle led by Too Tuf and were used to good effect in putting both IP and Captain Oates off their DDs. Lady Penelope (aka Sweet Pea) of International Rescue had saved IP from a crumbling bridge and received several phone calls from Australia interrupting the flow of the circle. He should never have been on the bridge which had been marked by a bar. With no justice on the hash, those that actually followed hash rules and got their feet wet (Bugger, Goblin, Butt Plug and Tom 'Captain Oates' Daley) were the ones that got most abuse in the circle.
Hare and birthday boy Wallington received his reward for a good run. It was also noted that Diarrhoea had a birthday today, though Malteaser asserted he doesn't have them.
