Just watched Tuesday’s race on Youtube. Search Flaggmembers and enjoy this great spectacle. Nothing much in the way of a close finish and a bunch of hunters, but clearly having a bit of mad fun. Harks back to the original point of point to pointing, from one point to another. No flags at Flagg so the opportunity for short cuts through gaps is well taken.
Great stuff.
April 8, 2010 at 20:12 #288684I’ve been to Flagg many times – their members race is unique!! Some years ago there used to be 2 races – one for the High Peak members and one for the N E Cheshire Drag members. Quite alot of runners too. Sadly on Tuesday only 5 turned out – spirited contest for 4th/5th tho’!!!

April 9, 2010 at 12:41 #288869Enjoyable.
On the PTP subject perhaps one of you can tell me what is probably a blindingly obvious piece of information.
Im looking at the Irish fixtures to see if i can get along to one out of interest and after each fixture there are brackets either with (F), (H) or (S)
What do these indicate?
April 9, 2010 at 15:56 #288919Just a guess – I’m thinking F Foxhounds H Harriers – can’t find a S example and that wouldn’t fit with my suggestion anyway! Sorry – not much help – would be interested to know!
April 9, 2010 at 16:56 #288943Maybe you are right with those two, heres an example of what they have listed
Sat 27th Co. Down (S) Derrydrummuck, Loughbrickland, Co. Down. L/H
Sun 28th Bree (F) Monksgrange, Enniscorthy, Co. Wexford. L/H
Wed 31st Killeagh (H) Inch Ballyanthony, Tallow, Co. Cork. R/H

I think you will find that S is for staghounds.
April 10, 2010 at 06:46 #289118Didn’t know they had Staghounds in Ireland – so that’s why I didnt suggest that’s what the "S" stood for – all sorted the?
April 12, 2010 at 17:40 #289912Had H F and S confirmed as we thought with an email reply from Irish Pt-to-pt site.
