Meet Report Thornbridge Hall 8/1/12 |
|
|
|
Our hosts, Emma and Jim Harrison and their family again made us very welcome at Thornbridge Hall. We have been meeting at Thornbridge since the Hunt was founded and members of the field expressed their thanks to them. A number of neighbouring farmers and well-wishers came to see us off.
Our kennel-huntsman, Heidi Critchlow, brought out fourteen couple of hounds. The day started with a quick line through the park, as hounds purused their quarry, Rob Drummond, with fervour. Mick Mottershaw, MBH showed fabulous sport and Chirs Kane admirably led the second field across the marvellous countryside. We are grateful to the quad teams: James & Pete Illingworth and Jules Haywood & Jackie Buxton, for ensuring that all was left as we found it. On our return, Jackie Morgan, Operations Manager, gave us a splendid tea. Janine Frost won the raffle. Thanks to Helen Best for organising it – and the day – and thanks to Andy Best and Mandy Stone for the logistical support.
Kate Foster put some photos of the meet on her Facebook click here to view.
