SORT-OF SCRIBE FOR THE FASCINATOR STAG HOTEL LEARMONTH RUN.
A freezing Day turned into a freezing Night, one for the True Believers. And a caucus of Hash (wo)men through and through turned up in the dry to the specially opened Stag Hotel for the Fascinator Fuck up.
Meals were ordered with pre run beers. 7 hardy runners set out to a run with minimal trail, but whose strava map looked quite like a turnip. A really big turnip with a little "on back" just at the tip.
The drink stop was at the back of the Fascinator AirBNB, with a roaring fire to warm the cockles of the heart and other bits. The promised Great Northern was plentiful, as well as other proper beers, with enough left over for his next effort.
Back at the Stag all gathered to warm up and drink. The majority of one was sorely tested, with Mountie stepping up to fulfil most functions (as she has done for 35 years), but enough to award Rowdy his Committee "Its Time" shirt. (not many independents present so Snag carried the day manfully)
CHARGES WENT WELL, none recorded for posterity. (It's a Grand Old Flag)
Meals went well apart from Rowdy's pizza, which went through the oven 3 times before it was presented 40 minutes after all others. Drinks went well, apart from the red wine ( One bottle available for 17 takers) The solution was to serve it in port glasses, apart from Shafted who paid for it and got the big glass.
The drive home in the thick fog was a testament to NBCL's sobriety and car handling skills. Next week's run is Clock Head from the (Pleasant St) Bunch of Grapes. All welcome.
On On
