RUN #846
Date : Monday 29th September 2014Location: The Willowbrook, Gedling (NG4 3HQ)
Hare: Chicki and Underlay
Weather: Warm and just about dry
Pack size: 11
Tonight it was over to the eastern extremities of our hashing area. This proved a good choice in view of the fact that from early evening anywhere west of the M1 was getting the first real rain for more than a month. We left home in the dark and gloom with a definite feel that autumn was here and the hours of daylight were now less than the hours of darkness. Indeed, tonight we had to switch to 'hashing in the dark' mode.
We had a dream hare team of Chicki and Underlay. Contrary to expectation, both found their way around the trail they had laid, an ideal length and well-laid hash with good checks and around interesting terrain. Malteaser took a tumble into the stinging nettles and Butt Plug was also faller. Fortunate for the hares that the Beer Mistress and RA are not considered that important. Hash rules say it is an automatic hash shit only if the GM gets injured or lost. Pity it was too dark to see the embryonic Gedling Country Park, these were very challenging night-time manoeuvres, especially the large park area. Trianal managed to find the quick way across the fields rather than following the trail around the perimeter. At one point there were two packs following different parts of the trail, torch-lights were seen going in different directions.
Rain drops were felt as the circle began back at The Willowbrook, a newly refurbished Castle Rock pub, so guaranteed good ales. DDs went to Trianal (SCB); Diarrhoea (misdirecting the RA); B*gger (general whinging and complaining that it was dark); Malteaser (falling over); the hares for a 57%! trail; and Tanya for a welcome back.
That's the way I saw it.... On On.....Durex
