Guest Leveller Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 I had a job that I couldn't do today and found myself with some time on my hands. I thought I'd give Charlie a rest today and go in search of something a bit bigger . So I checked the meet card Larkbarrow Corner at 1100 so off we went. Unfortunately I missed the meet and didn't get there until around 1115 and the fog was so thick nobody really knew where the hounds had gone . I still managed to get stung for my cap though even when I joked that I wouldn't pay until the fog lifted . All that was left to do was to drive around and try and find some sign of them . The trouble with hindhunting is that they aren't harboured so it is very much a guessing game as to where to position yourself for a good view. I was reliably informed that they were on there way out to Manor Allotment so that was where I was headed but the bloody fog was so thick it made it impossible to see anything . I didn't catch up with any sign of them until about 1400 when I was informed by a mate that they were just seen heading towards Weir Water in Doone Valley, great I've just come from there .I was on the verge of giving up and heading towards Horner to catch up with The Minehead Harriers. Until I stopped up on the top and managed to see something right off in the distance it looked good when using the binos' anyway . So at least I had something to follow now. On to the next spot the kids enjoyed looking at all " The presents " that were walking around and the original off roader Just so you can get a feel of the general view of our goverment on the moor right now This was as close as I got to any hounds today you can see a lone hound in the back of the Landy which got lost and rescued by the hunt staff Quote Link to post
Guest Leveller Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 It wasn't the best days hunting I've enjoyed, but ask anyone whos visited our moor and it's enough on it's own Good night Master Quote Link to post
