Streatham Campus, University of Exeter - Bull Bait and family - 6th December 2015

Today's trail was a virgin lay from the Bull-Bait family - laid yesterday, but checked this morning.  In Groucho's absence, Spocky welcomed the pack and handed to the hares.   Then Tampa arrived - nearly 15 minutes late.  Having missed the chalk talk, we decided not to tell him about the dangers on trail that lay ahead!  The longs headed across the car park, and then Woodpecker arrived!  The long loop took us around the student accommodation before heading down to the duck ponds (without ducks) and up the valley to where there was a seemingly improptu game of Quidditch.  What a stupid sport we laughed, and then realised what we do every Sunday morning.  Up right to the back of campus, then another long-short, with the longs straying into the valley.  We skirted around the Sports Park before the Sweetie Stop at Holland Hall.  Shhh - don't wake up the students.
The trail then continued down the hill, past Reed Hall, around the Washington Singer Building, behind the Old Library and then back up on to campus via the main entrance.  Then back along the paths through the wooded area, top he On Home.
Speedy stood in as Sheriff  and seemed to find most of us for child abuse!
A great first lay, perfectly timed at 60 mins and 3.5 miles.
Next week its Geronimo and Emerald's anniversary hash from the end of Exhibition Way, near Aldi, Pinhoe (see the map)
