The Bridge Inn, Tatham

Saturday 31st January 2009

Tatham is always one of my favourite meets, and my horse too, and we are always grateful to the landowners and farmers for letting us cross their land, and the hunt members who work so hard to secure permission to ride. Tatham has a nice mix of hedges to jump over (or through), walls, and post and rail. We jumped our first five bar gate here and this weekend a couple of the younger riders also came of age…

Anything You Can Do…

Well done to Tom Greenwood for tackling this example which must surely be higher than his horse! Not to be outdone Anabell Lacey has showed that anything the boys can do the girls can do too. Any young lads that would like to try outriding the Bitch Pack are welcome to visit and try.

A cracking day out with less mud than many expected. As I cleaned my tack today it was certainly cleaner than after the meet here in November.

Plenty of photos are in the gallery, courtesy of John Vine and Debbie Conway.

Michael Dixon
Handsome is as Handsome Does

Mr Michael Markey has been kind enough to send us a selection of 35mm film photos that have been converted to digital.

Photos are from the Wennington, Whoop Hall and Redwell meets. They may look a bit different to modern eyes because the lens Michael uses is single coated for a vintage look. We think they look fabulous.

Take a look in the gallery.

Green Smithy

Green Smithy Meet, 1977
Green Smithy 1977

Vale of Lune members might like to while away the cold evenings trying to guess the identity of this member of the Vale of Lune Hunt riding out from Green Smithy in 1977.

She wouldn’t let anyone get away with a ponytail like that under her watch!

Draghunting and trail hunting are high risk sports. From time to time it is inevitable that accidents will happen, whether or not it is the fault of the rider or any of those otherwise concerned. For this reason we make it a condition that anyone coming out with us must have read carefully, and observe, the safety requirements in the disclaimer.
