More titbits.

James and John Oldcorn were sat in their car , minding their own, when the peace was broken when the HTA’s vice chairman opened the back door and  put his hounds in. Same colour ,same make but parked in a different spot , an easy mistake to make- cobblers!

Fun and games at Kirkstone Pass last week, official scout was cut short when attempting to find out how many runners there were in the first trail.

Then Galemire Grace was presented with the trophy in memory  of the late Sally Simpson by her son ‘Pip ‘only to discover it should have gone to the pup winner.

Then some sheep escaped and ran down the main road,- a fox upset the first three in the non- winners and some wag posted that a new foxhound pack , the KPFH had been formed.

Our American friends enjoyed themselves at the HTA’s highest venue, judging by the noise they made as the hounds crossed the road, they actually were quite useful as unofficial scouts-as they stood in the road.

There’s no hiding place , ask Steve Riley as he stood by the tea van at Cold Fell and a cyclist rode by ,’ Hey Riley you rogue’ he shouted.

I know it was only a non- winners but nevertheless first three at Marton for the Napiers and the Foxparke Clan and looking at the times if they had run Mamma Mary and Honky Tonky,they might have had all six tickets.

Our Ex- Chair has retired and his new vocation seems to be judging , apparently at Shap the camera battery failed and he used his phone. What to do – to ring Keith ,John and Carol and ask them who won?.

A bit since we had a prize for ‘hat of the week’ but that thing ‘Swannee’ had on his head on Sunday will take some beating.

Throat lozenges for Russell for shouting for ‘ Hilda’ from the first showing in the pup maidens on Sunday, poor lass she finished last.
