Danes Wood *Bull Bait's 40th* - Child Catcher, Twin Peaks and Bollards - 8th July 2018

By -
If Bull Bait was worried about being humiliated, he wasn't showing it. The hash started normally - or as normal as could be expected given the 30 degree heat, and it being our 888th hash. But at the end of the opening circle, out came the surprises - and he clearly hadn't put on fish net stockings before. The pink handbag was full of forfeits - which would be undertaken as the hash unfolded.

The first was doing the plank for 60 seconds, the second was kissing all the male hashers, and the third was doing three cartwheels. The sweetie stop was at the top of the valley by the photoframe, where forfeit number four was 10 burpees. Number 5 was ten pressups, and number 6 - back at the car park - was kissing all the harrietts.

Then he (and Child Catcher) got down downs for allowing Stingray to hash in new trainers (last week). And another one for having his birthday - and the usual hash rendition of 'happy birthday'. Stingray also got fines for whinging.

Next week we're in Yeoford, for a BBQ Woody's house. Please bring beer! (EX17 5HZ, SX780983, map)

And don't forget to Rate the Hash

Finally, an urgent request for hares for 12th, 19th and 26th August.

A gloriously sunny morning for the hash, with some extra excitement in the form of car park shenanigans.  First Twin Peaks led me to the wrong car park, and then confused me by holding the map upside down.  Thats how I remember it anyway. Then, there was a great amount of giggling as a small car (non hasher) appeared to want to ground itself on a tree root.  With a bit of car park juggling, he managed to escape.

Woodpecker read out his pre-prepared speech, telling us that we would find the sweets at the sweetie stop, to follow the front runners, and that fish hooks had been used 'intelligently'.

He always does his best to find something soft underfoot, and today's trail was no exception.  We took a route down to the lakes via an 'interesting' and not-often-used path, which involved slippery slopes and multiple instances of jumping over wet and smelly bogs.  Tampa was one of the fallers!

There were a few long-shorts which kept the pack together well, and we headed u…

It was really cold this morning, and raining too.  This was supposed to have been the trail in The Bitz's new patch, but they have yet to move.  That's being saved up for the Autumn Gathering weekend! We welcomed Megaphone to the hash as a visitor.
Spocky explained that this was one of those trails where he was recce-ing and laying at the same time and that we were to expect a very long long, and another long that he'd given up on!  
The trail took us north out of the village, across fields, roads and tracks.  We found ourselves in a field of Christmas trees, or there was a good few of the Spocky-trademarked loops where he would appear like a "creepy old man" (Megaphone's quote) from the undergrowth.  Somehow, by the time we'd got to the sweetie stop, we'd lost Tampa!
He's found his way home though and fines were awarded for nerd naming, late arrivals, and going the wrong way (the second time round - Bullbait)
Next week the hash is from Pynes Hil…
