HUNT FOR YOUR HEALTH
Sir,
"Keep Britain on the Move" is being launched, yet the Government still proposes to bring in a Bill to ban hunting. As a septuagenarian, I queried my doctor about fitness.
"What do you do for exercise?" he asked. "Follow the Wyre Forest beagles once or twice a week," I replied. "Finest thing you could do," he advised.
This involves following on foot small hounds working out the line of the hare. No expensive gyms required; only fields, woods and streams to cross, and the Welsh hills blue-black in the background.
