Expedition

On Monday January 19th Sourcerer set out at 3am, drove 546 miles and attempted seven hashpoints in about 16 hours. Six were reached. This was success number four.

This should have been routine but the first attempt was a dead end blocked by deep drainage ditches. Lyla the hash bitch refused to walk for the second time. First it was Gatwick flights and now it was Stansted flight noise that was upsetting her. After moving the car, the correct footpath was spotted so I re-parked in the original place, left Lyla in the car, and walked to the hashpoint in sunshine across a light dusting of melting snow.
