Lycetts Festival of Hunting 2018

September 11, 2018  •  3 Comments

I had only walked a few metres when I spotted the Foxdenton Gin trade stand and I was immediately drawn straight in!  I've been wanting to try Martha's Marvellous Jumping Juice for a while.  This new gin is a collaboration between Lady Martha Sitwell and Foxdenton Gin also supporting spinal research.  I was not disappointed; warming with a spicy kick, it is the perfect hip flask filler for hunting on a winter's day.  The temperature at the festival was far from a winter's day though and as temperatures soared, Foxdenton's refreshing Lemon & Cucumber Gin was the perfect choice.  

Refreshed, I made my way around the various show rings.  I was pleased to see one of my local Bloodhound packs; Coakham bloodhounds having a very successful day.

I wandered over to the Inter Hunt relay where crowds were gathered to support their local packs in a knock out style competition.  The course required a need for speed and also control and this made excellent viewing.  The Grove and Rufford were victorious, taking the cup and the £1000 prize money, closely followed by the Essex Farmers and Union 1 and the Cotswold in third.  

I then watched the Ladies Side Saddle Horse in the equine rings.  This was a real pleasure to watch and all competitors were immaculately turned out.  Winner of the class was Mrs Katrine Hirst riding Noble Gladiator.  

 

  

The festival hosted many quality trade stands and I drooled over the HiHo Silver Jewellery.  I finished the day watching the junior Inter Hunt Relay who certainly kept spectators on the edge of their seats!  It was fast, hairy at times with a few near misses and a great display of pony club skills!  All competitors showed great team spirit.  Congratulations to Woodland Pytchley Hunt PC 1 for taking the win in spectacular style!  

Here follows some more of my favourite photos from the day.

Greater part manages framework is the standard quality in the American course structure according to my thinking. I found a writer after reading http://bestwritingsclues.com/reviews/paperhelp-com-review/ article because there are reviews about him. Students are drawn closer to have their own point of view and show their points of view to the rest of others which is something fundamental.

Self-attempts can be truly vital and most overpowering strategies to further develop your photography aptitudes, while taking the energy of the inventive verbalization to another level. Obviously, we generally visit http://t2conline.com/how-to-find-urgent-online-assignment-help/ site and out and out veneration wandering through a city or open nation, pointing our place of relationship at whatever likes us by then, at that point.
