Hunting around Warrington?

Thanks for that... unfortunately they don't have any meets near where my horse is kept (just north of Warrington). I don't have any transport so wont be taking her very far!

Was hoping that there might have been a hunt that had a meet near me so I could take horse up for a look!
 
I beg to differ, I'm not sure you could describe those in charge of the CDH as lovely or friendly by any stretch of the imagination.

JAS I believe that you made a formal complaint to the Masters of Drag Hounds Association about one of those Masters making a joke to people he knew well at a barbecue that he liked to see women in the kitchen. I think you also followed that up with a Complaint to the Equal Opportunities Commission and certainly you have told me that you had also gone to the press about it.

I think that your definition of what is a nice person and what is not may differ from other peoples.


I can assure everyone who intends to hunt with the Cheshire Drag that they will find us to be as nice a group as any other, and better than some I have hunted with.

This is still on the website as Arley for Weds and Henbury for Sat? Is it definite Hatton Arms and will we get hedges like normal from there? I missed Saturday last, so I might go if so.

I've been watching this topic with interest especially as the Drag Hunt was very local to me and I really wanted to go today. I have to admit, the comments about unfriendliness (and the derrogatory comments which were removed) had really put me off.

However, I went out with them today and had the best time. Everyone was so friendly and couldn't have helped me more. The Masters were not how Jas123 described them at all, they were really helpful and friendly. I started out not jumping and was clearly directed to the ways round. As the day went on, I tackled a few post and rails. I even went in the pub after and was welcomed by everyone, I didn't feel out of it because I was on my own. I had a wonderful time from start to finish and will be joining at the opening meet as junior membership is only £100!

If anyone has any worries about hunting, the CDH is a great hunt to get your confidence up! They are definately lovely, friendly and welcoming
 
I'll see you soon then Emmajac, I wish I'd made it out today but I'm planning to be out Saturday. Introduce yourself if you see me - big nearly black horse and I wear an air jacket.

thank you for your lovely comment!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so glad you had fun!!!! lets just say jas123 has a few sour grapes!!! silly!!!! the opening meet on saturday is looking to be a fantastic day, again jumping and non jumping, see you then
 
God Lord they are super people there- not only looked after myself & a friend that were clearly new and despite trying to traipse round at the back out of the way, some how ended up at the front! One of the lovely masters waited with me while I retrieved all stuff from my saddle bag with what appears to have been a duff fasten from being strewn across a field with a smile on throughout- what a lovely bunch of people :D

Sadly not managed to get back to them recentl, must work on that.....
