QH3 RUN #881
Date: Monday 28th September 2015 (19:15)
Location: The Smithfield, Derby (DE1 2BH)
Hare: Durex
Weather: Clear, dry, autumnal and dark
Pack size: 9
Autumn has arrived with cool crisp evenings and the QH3 going urban as darkness now shrouds our evening trails. With the A-team missing tonight the pack relied on others to do the checking - more practice needed here. It was a welcome back to Clementine and Silent Pants, the former no longer a FRB but walking around at some pace was involved in many of the checks which kept the pack together. With it being such a lovely clear moon-lit evening the hare had decided to give the hounds a good long trail. Many, with plenty of false paths checked, did more than 6 miles as we went out through Chaddesden before heading back home from the edge of Pride Park. Even the unlikely checks along the edge of the A52 slowed down many of the front runners.

| Our evening runs our now in the dark but today our trail was well lit by a 'big' moon |
The Smithfield is a popular hashing venue and we had the pub to ourselves this Monday evening. Disappointingly for the hare, Captain Oates did not get lost which must have been a contributory factor in this last-minute trail only being assigned a 'good' rather than 'excellent' run.
