The Park Gate, Kidderminster

Warn out at the first Hash Halt

And yes we do some running!

# 204

Date: Thursday 28^th June

Pub: The Park Gate, Kidderminster

Beers: Banks, Marstons & a n other

Food: 2 for 1 off the menu

Visitors: none

Virgins: none

Hare: Cleopatra

Trail: Another spectacular storm this morning a-Nile-ated the trail, (which might as well have been laid in milk) resulting in Cleopatra having to re-lay it at the last minute.  25 hashers and half a dozen hounds set off into the evening sunshine with high asp-irations but Lassie was tripped before we’d even left the car park!  A lovely, albeit muddy, run through Hurcott Woods with seats and sweets at the first HH.  A cunning retracing of steps back down to Hurcott Lane and down into Blakedown, with a welcome refreshment stop at another mummy’s house.  Cutting back along the side of Churchill Golf Club, back along Waggon Lane and a long, steady descent to the on-inn.

Down downs: awarded by Doggy Fashion to Cleopatra for her beautiful hash; Lassie for falling and for his Sharapova-style wailing at every oncoming car; Cinderella for falling in the mud – obviously still sleep-deprived after her recent prom night; the unknown soldier who asked Hard On if he wore padding; and finally to Tits or Treats for being asked to put her buns away.
