Some new recruits to the league, and a particularly strong showing from the women and over 65s respectively (welcome Brother Lockwood), with some canny entries on the short and medium courses securing particularly high scores … not least Ms Bryan-Jones whose orienteering class clearly shone through once again.\u00a0 Indeed, there must be something in the air – independence perhaps? – with (methinks) Father Bryan-Jones winning outright on the Short Course, and our other double-barreled would-be Scotsman (Rhys F-R) securing second on the Classic Course this year.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the absence of a determination\u00a0from the Cat (who may or may not have been a DNF on the Classic Course) as to the Team Prize winners, this particular award must perforce be held in abeyance.\u00a0 More disappointing still, with the enforced absence of Barber Surgeon Caddick through injury, we will for the second year running not have a woman completing the requisite five qualifying races for the league – leaving your absentee correspondent with a difficult decision to make as to this year’s first honorary woman. <\/p>\n
We all have our crosses to bear, I guess, chief amongst which for your correspondent this weekend being the call away to higher duties, delivering precious cargo to Glasgow School of Art, such that I could not on this occasion join in the fun.<\/p>\n
Last up then, as previously trailed, is The Screes, Nether Wasdale, featuring the first Carshare League Awayday Weekend.\u00a0 All welcome – kids included – and the opportunity to give our (mostly) youngers and betters a good cheer at the FRA Relays on the Sunday morning.\u00a0 Do let me know by calendar@dpfr.org.uk if you plan to come along.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
