11 thoughts on “There is no hunting like the hunting of man”

  1. I do enjoy your posts about The Hunt. Two thoughts spring to mind. Is it true thst some men actually volunteer for this ordeal? And, does the lovely Alice (of Alice and Serena fame) hunt? I’m sure she looks divine in jodhpurs.

    1. Thank you PP. The Hunt is a thoroughly enjoyable activity for almost everyone involved.

      I have heard that occasionally males volunteer. Perhaps they feel the need to face a deadly challenge or are just tired of life. Often the volunteers are long-term married men and I’ve heard they often change their minds on the day, begging and pleading with their wives or the Hunt leaders – to no avail, obviously, and rather selfishly if you think about all the other people whose carefully-planned afternoon such a withdrawal would disrupt. In any case, they obviously consented and signed in calmer times, at home discussing it with their wives, so that’s the decision and the document that matters and the Hunt goes ahead. View-halloo and tally-ho!

      As for Alice, I’m sure she’d love it but sadly for her and us, the Hunt takes place in a future or parallel world, while Alice and Serena are of course real and doing their thing today, in this world. Actually Alice messaged me to tell me she thought your comments are all quite interesting, although she did find the bit about jodhpurs a little objectifying, so perhaps she’ll be trying to get in touch? Just look out for a large unmarked white van cruising at walking speed alongside you some day – it’ll probably the vehicle they’ve sent to collect you. Something to look forward to, anyway. Best of luck.

      1. Being bundled into an unmarked van by agents of an implacable sexual sadist? That sounds like the start of my ideal bank holiday weekend!

  2. I always find myself wondering if there is a whip round afterwards, to cover the funeral costs.

    Or is that what the dogs get as a reward?

    1. Goodness, Mr M, allowing the hounds (please, not ‘dogs’) to eat the flesh of the deceased quarry? Have you lost your mind? No self-respecting Hunt would permit it! Just think it through: once the hounds get the idea they are allowed to do that, what chance would the poor Huntresses have of recovering their trophies?

      No, no: once the trophies have been removed, the remains are disposed of hygienically, I believe. There’s no real expense involved, the Council will dispose of them as part of their regular waste collection service, as long as you make sure to use the right bin, of course.

  3. Finally “The Hunt” again! Made my day, truly the best series of all (though I really love the ballbusting sports theme). Leaves so much to the imagination thinking about the hunting ladies lives at home…

    1. Merci Giverny

      Oh, the hunting ladies’ lives at home are quite humdrum and normal, really. A few photographs of successful hunts around the place, a few trophies mounted discreetly here and there. It’s said that one can always tell when a really keen huntress lives in a house, because it is cared for so well – their men-folk being, quite appropriately, in a permanent state of terror. But aside from that… There has in recent years been a fashion for man-hide leather cushions, seat coverings and so on but experienced huntresses frown on such excesses as being a little vulgar.

      1. Oh, I could imagine that some things made of man-leather would be pretty to look at and also soft to the touch. It all depends on a tasteful and skilful craftsmanship. Since the boom of the Hunt and the rapidly increasing number of participants, the demand for souvenirs has exploded.
        In every major city, there is a women-led workshop that specializes in just that.
        And the supply of raw materials does not end for the time being…

  4. Ahhh! I love when you post “The Hunt” content. I look forward to it! It’s my favorite content of yours by far

    1. Thank you Riley. I’m glad you like them. Some people consider it extreme but it’s really just a story of boy meets girl, boy makes sexist comment, boy gets hauled up before the magistrate and sentenced to The Hunt, boy gets chased, terrified and naked, in a desperate attempt to reach Sanctuary with hounds nipping at his heels, bullwhips flicking at his neck and the happy sounds of girls eagerly shrieking excitedly about castrating and murdering him. There has to be a place for traditional country pursuits in this ugly modern world.
