Night Orienteering with Quantock Orienteers

Waiting for the sun to go down at the start.
Usual format for the Quantock night events, 1 hour score with two colours of controls.  Start on the colour of your choice, change when you want, but you cant go back.  So off I went picking up 5 blue controls without to many problems.  Came off the track junction, but couldn't get the wooded area to fit so eventually gave up and headed off to 112.  Out of 112 stayed to high and had to drop down the wall to 115, 29.15 gone so decided to head for home.  Thought about switching at 114 but left it and picked up 118 before switching.  Picked up all the reds on the way home but realised after 113 that I was going to be early back without anywhere to go.  So 5.9km in 50.23 on a stunning evening in the Quantocks.
