WILF 46,298 Posted October 2, 2012 Report Share Posted October 2, 2012 Well, I always make a point of wareing a shirt and tie and personally I think it looks Chav to be real tree up to the eyeballs.....other than that, I open and close gates for the field and generally be polite to everyone......should make for an enjoyable day. 3 Quote Link to post

DEADHORSEANDDONKEYDEALER 275 Posted October 2, 2012 Report Share Posted October 2, 2012 If its a mounted pack get up early and spend a couple of hours getting ready and an hour or two brushing the horse then arrive early at the meet to soak up the atmosphere and the hot toddys the field marshall will tell you the rest If its a footpack get up 20 mins before you need to set of throw your boots and waterproofs in the old van and arrive when the hounds are just tipping out, have a quick word with lads and hope the Drag man managed to get there before ya .....Enjoy 4 Quote Link to post

alimac 882 Posted October 3, 2012 Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 (edited) waterproofs for me!!! but im with the terrier crew enjoy your day Nothing to stop you having the shirt and tie underneath. Atb no there aint but it the tie wont stop on long when im digging!!! and the shirt will end up very muddy Just tuck your tie into your shirt, roll your sleeves up, job done, any other mud well it's just part & parcel of digging holes in the ground lol, better that way than sweating your bollocks off in waterproofs. Edited to add... Shh surely if you've been invited then who ever asked you will know what's what with that particular hunt??? Really can't see why you had to asked on here, but hey your full of surprises. Lol Edited October 3, 2012 by alimac 3 Quote Link to post

Lol Was a mate, he just slipped it into conversation as he was leaving, as he walked out ' oh we're going out with the hunt Saturday if you want to come'. As I said I don't know I'll be going so thought I'd ask on here Quote Link to post
