Friday 17th Jan saw three teams of hounds come out to play. Temperatures had been over 40C for the previous four days but fortunately a cool change came late afternoon Friday so hounds were treated to milder conditions and by the end of the evening some were looking for warmer clothing!
Hunts were held on 144 and 52 MHz. Locations were Diamond Creek, Eltham, Heidelberg, Alphington and Bundoora. Due to the weather and hound commitments for the following day supper was held a little early. Teams retired to the home of Greg VK3VT to consume a supper of sandwiches, marinated chicken wings, dips, cheese and cake. (Sorry folks I forgot to distribute the ice creams!!) Scores were announced and the VK3FAST team walked away with win by one point.
Many thanks to Greg’s daughter Kate for helping with the supper.
Next month’s fox will be the VK3FAST team.
Results as follows, old fashioned 10 minute rule scoring, all hunts single leg.
