Leics To Fauld Explosion Crater Run 14/15 June (Which Ever Is Driest)

[Andi]

Some of these lanes I discovered the other week when getting lost in the kit and they are in a fantastic bit of countryside.

Now I dont pretend to remember every lane I got lost down but I have planned a route which covers most of the villages i went

through.

See here

We should start off at the Field Head Hotel in Markfield Leics at 10.30 am and onwards to the destination of the Cock Inn in Hanbury

where we can have beer and food and for those interested in a short walk (less than 1/2 mile) you can get to the Fauld bomb crater

believed to be one of the biggest non nuclear explosions in the world after a munitions dump went up in a big bang during the last war.

WARNING.... Apparently there is still live ordinance lurking about so keep behind the signed pathways. The cars would be secure as the Wife

or I will be watching them (though if Kerry goes he might come back to find a pinto in his Hood )

It is so schitzo at the moment though
