H unting is so brilliant because it combines so many of the things that
make life worth living: the matchless beauty of our countryside; the
camaraderie of shared danger; the glamour of a mobile cocktail party; the
spirit of a warehouse rave; the application of hard-won skills; the escapist joy
of living purely in the moment; the thrill of the chase; dressing up in fabulous
costumes…There’s no other activity on earth where children and adults can
compete and bond on equal terms – same hardships, same risks, same buzz…
Afterwards, it feels a bit like it must do when you’ve survived a battle. Everyone’s
amazed to be in one piece; you feel an extraordinary bond with those
who have shared the experience. People who were strangers an hour before
now feel like your oldest, most intimate friends.” –James Delingpole
Here’s to
a great
season,
WHH!
