Things have been ‘on the quiet side’ but we are starting to get into gear and this applies to the ‘web’.

April fixtures will be published shortly plus a look forward to the 2017 season.

If anybody wishes to contribute then get in touch, the e-mail address will be posted forthwith as my current one is caput.

So if anybody has used my e mail over the last fortnight it is probably in space.

The AGM Of the HTA took place on Sunday Feb 5th at Hundith HIll Cockermouth . 80 members were present , the balance sheet was adopted and showed a small profit , although this included a donation of over £1000 and the secretary forgoing her travelling allowance .

One notice of motion was carried , this concerns the qualification of non-HTA hounds running in HTA trails.

AOB.

It was announced that at the next Committee meeting on the agenda will be the unification of the ‘mixture’ , that all seven areas will use the same sourced paraffin.

The May day fixture is open and always has been.

The meeting closed at 3.45pm.

It is with a heavy heart that I have to inform all trailers that last evening Gerry Meneaud from Ambleside passed away. Gerry will always be remembered for his willing ways , cheeky smile. If you weren’t personally acquainted – he was the starting trailer for Kirkstone, Ambleside and Rydal, Ings and finishing end at Applethwaite. And the “waller” at Kirkstone, seen in his left hand drive truck with his bandana. We extend our heartfelt sympathies to his wife and family, our thoughts are with you, God bless- RIP Gerry.
