Six of MIL's finest made it out on a humid and damp morning in response to the call of Yo Adrian. The following is a loose recollection and retelling of just what happened.

FNG has been christened as "Hochuli" to MIL F3. Andy Howland resides in The Quarry Hood, has a wife in FIA who is fitter than him, has two active boys that keeps him busy, has a landscape company and referees hockey on the side. Moniker is in reference to NFL referee Ed Hochuli, who is best known for his athletic/muscular physique and for explaining on-field rulings in a manner that is comprehensive yet also clear and concise.
