Cross-country run

You could argue that it's a bit hot for doing cross-country runs, but that didn't deter the participants in the Man'Erve trail last weekend.   There were three courses, the longest being 30Km.   So the most enthusiastic people set off at about 07h00 and rolled back in about 11-ish.   I helped cook the sausages, which was much less tiring, and listened to the musical entertainment.

    That sausage cooking really takes it out of a person!

    Bangers always taste so much better when cooked 'alfresco'...

    Would they be similar to British snags, or the French version with a few more entrails etc.?

    Probably a bit hot for cooking on the BBQ too.

    I will settle for sitting in the shade ;-)

    Hi Scrobs, these particular sausages are know locally as gorronais, that is, from Gorron, and I can't distinguish them from the British Banger. They are probably the best sausages you can get here. There's also a sausage called merguez, that are based on lamb or mutton and beef (no pork) that also make for excellent barbecue fodder.
