This should have been Toe Jam’s run, but Big Top stepped up as Toe Jam was too busy with his new job – only for him to arrive pretty laid back. Interesting start!
It was a run for sicknotes, and as Belly Dancer did his trade mark sprint off at the start, the usual FRBs didn’t chase him down. We were down Brown Finger and Graven Image already, and Mr Poo had begged off for work. Chuckie bailed out, due to an adverse reaction to hair regrowth potion (now that is a damn good excuse!). Myself, I was off work all week with sinusitis and chest infection. I guess we’d have to leave it to HRA, Horny Monkey, ?Turkish & Humperdick?
After they set off I took a stroll down the path to see where it went and quickly overtook the DFLs, spotting HRA stood guarding a check and waiting for the call to be made – so much for working as a FRB! I did a quick loop around the houses and got back to find the hare placing the On-In. After 10 minutes of the “run” I called “ON ON!”, and gave Big Top a shock. I wasn’t the only one to take such a short route.
The runners came in after around 40 minutes and Sups was happy that all the walkers were back in around 50 minutes. There weren’t many criticisms around, so it sounded like it was a good run. Shame I wasn’t on form for the circle, but hopefully it all went well!
