Hares: P-lips and Call Girl
A few people had trouble finding the start of last weeks run, Spitoon and Limp Toed Sloth were up and down the N340 many times. Kindergarden Kop and Tight Arse also got lost and wanted white signs not brown signs! Shagadelic turned up in her pyjamas and was looking for hash attire, not having been home for 2 nights. Up Yer Bum appeared with her tales of being robbed, at knifepoint by gypsies in Fuengirola. She was robbed of her dog and her watch, guess what she got back and it wasn’t her watch.
So we eventually set off about 4pm despite being asked to be there by 3:30pm because of the early sunset. The trail started by retracing our steps back along the road before heading along a rocky dry streambed which then led us to an open area with a 2 way split. Here confusion reigned as we tried to find the trail, checking right and left and straight on before eventually finding it.
Along the stream bed and then up the hill to the bridge across the N340. from here we wound our way through a park and sidestreets before being directed down to the beach. A good run along the beach with the pack well and truly spread out as we searched for flour on the beach , eventually Limp Toed Sloth found the BS and we headed in land to the beer stop. Delicious Brownies as well as the usual refreshments.
The second half took us back through more houses to another footbridge over the N340 and through the bike track where the local bikers had obliterated the flour with their wheelies. Trail was eventually found which took us back onto the outward road and On In.
A nice run but with too few checks.
