Baz’s Blog – IT’s SHOW TIME.
Firstly on a serious note- the ‘cough’ is about.
Saying of the week attributed to J T P by way of ID and SD ( to protect there anonymity ) ‘ the second hound is in front’
On being told that his hound, although it was a long way from the trail field , as the ‘crow flies” it wasn’t far. He replied’ my hound isn’t a f******** crow’.! Anon!
Laugh ! Tricia Wilson hanging on to the crowd barrier at Rydal whist I prepared her for the ‘wheelbarrow’ ( no 123 in the ‘Kama Sutra’) and a sight for sore eyes Cath Lister with the loo door open!
Poor Sophie, after Miterdale Force had given her the ‘runaround’ at Cold Fell ‘, Baz, my blood pressure is sky high! Don’t worry Sophie mine has been for weeks.
Nice surprise , won £30 on the Whitehaven lottery,
Walked a quarter of a mile to open two gates for the seniors at Rydal and then watched two of them jump two fences instead of going through the open gates .Sometimes you wonder why you bother!
See the community Police Officers were present at Cold Fell , parked there car on the side of the road , every car that passed slowed to a walk.
The question arose, that was asked a few weeks ago, ‘what’s the mountain called due east ‘ Based on the theory if in doubt ask a policeman! And, the PC’s answer Great Gable ! Wrong!
I ask the Question ‘Where do hounds go’ because at Ings last Thursday a hound was seen within shouting distance of the trail field at approx. 3.45 ,after an extensive search of the area by the owners and helpers and ‘no sign ‘and fast becoming ‘no hope, a shout went up ‘hound here’ and there it was poking its head through the gate in the starting field – the time 6.30. The hound ,in question ,had time to go to Mickledore and back!
An excellent effort to raise £900 at Cold Fell and thanks to Jill for the cakes- for those who bought the fruit cake ,Jill apologies for the crumbly nature and promises next time to use more cement and less sand.
Tommy Newall didn’t have anything to do at the association trails so he decided to make a few observations and one of them was that hardly anybody used the loos , in fact he only saw one person make the lonely trek in that direction! This was noted and in future we will make sure that the field is nearer the toilets!
