Run 954 - Mijas golf road - Sunday 24th Dec

Hare's Mummy's Boy and Streaky.

18 People Turned up for the Xmas Eve run. Which Mummy's Boy and Streaky did at short notice. It was held between Fuengirola and Alhaurin El Grande with very good directions to it.

We all set off at around 3.40pm (nearly on time). The first check had us confused until Mummy's Boy appeared in the van and more or less told us we had passed the trail. After that first error we were off again up into the hills and lovely countryside.

The flour was in short supply and along way apart (we think due to being applied from the back of a motor bike?) We all came to a halt again at another check and after various attempts at different trails; Mork eventually found it (flour under a bush). Then it was all go full steam ahead!

The beer stop was very welcome and much needed with mulled wine, cakes, crisps and dips. The local goat herder joined in but preferred beer not the wine.

Then it was off again down back into the valley (the views were beautiful) and back to the "on-in" only to discover that Up Yer Bum's dog, Brandy was missing. Streaky and Up Yer Bum went in the car, retraced our steps and eventually found it.

An enjoyable circle followed with crackers being pulled. Hats were worn and jokes read from the crackers.

Marks awarded for the run 8.
