RUN #851 (OH3 Run #830)
Location: Rose and Crown, Zouch (LE12 5EQ)
Hares: Durex, Malteaser and Dipstick
Weather: Sunny, mild and dry.
Pack size: 33
There's not much to Zouch but for the Oxford Hash they can now say they've hashed from somewhere beginning with 'Z'. Our end of the month Monday run was postponed to this Sunday so Oxford could join us on a run on their way back home from a hash weekend in Hathersage. Our pack was swelled to 33 with two-thirds being from OH3.

Splendid weather for the time of year with the going very soft in places (good shiggy!). At 5.9 miles this was generally longer than our usual trails though this enabled us to take in the scenic path around the lake and a 25-meter wade down Black Brook. Well it was either that or a crossing of the River Soar! The Quorn A-team was absent this week so it was generally OH3 that did most of the checking and stretched out the pack. There was plenty of scope for short-cutting - a few did this of their own accord and I did manage to help Skids, FBJ and partner to do this more efficiently. Cohare Malteaser was able to escort the walkers around ensuring a reasonable length walk. This was two times in a month for Underlay, she'll be calling herself a hasher soon!
RAs Butt Plug and Victoria led the circle that included DDs for: (1) Wallington and Hard Core for not doing the stream crossing. Two of many and they didn't actually get a DD, more like wet feet from water dispensed by the RA. A bit harsh on Wallington as doing the short run he wasn't given the opportunity to wade down the stream; (2) Hares Durex, Malteaser and Dipstick for a good run. None of the 42% nonsense this week; (3) Hashy birthday to Scragends; (4) Lost property from the Hathersage weekend - a wig that wasn't Dipstick's; (5) For the light-weights of the OH3, Home Alone and three others - Butt Plug had dropped into the Little John in Hathersage to meet up with the OH3 over the weekend but had found they had all left the pub early; (6) Newcomer to the Quorn hash, Argentinian Stop at my sex pit (we'll just call you Sex-pit); (7) Professional drinker Warm and Fluffy; (8) Who knows Stewart? - Diarrhoea and Lockjaw; and finally (9) Butt Plug for spending the whole weekend hashing, initially camping with the 'Hard Bastards weekend' in Edale, and it was a hashy birthday for him.
Great to be hashing with a good-sized pack. I say it every time, we should be doing more of these hashing cultural exchanges and have far more joint runs.
That's the way I saw it....
