Apres No-one!  Too many social events going on for this to last long today

After a delay for Uncle Fester to go looking for some lost souls only to find the were not hashing after all even though this was their last opportunity the hash got off to a slightly late start.  The on-on was off to the back of the transmitter station and up over the little hill.  It was then under the pipe line and across the field to the river bed.  The going was good and dry with little to worry the hashers under foot.  The biggest concern was the cones from the trees which rolled around a lot and some of the little drop offs beside the goat trail.

The hashers then split into two groups with the slower WATs and little ones taking the river bed and meandering slowly along and under the thorn bushes and the others going up the opposite hill to run along the brow and then join the WATs in the river bed.

From there it was along the river bed on the flat until we veered off to the left and up a little steep bank then down onto the level again for the wander back to the transmitter station.  A great short hash and just what was needed as a stretch of the legs given it was so very hot out there.

The circle of friendship was drawn and Kyle will now be known as Aloe Gobby and Steve who isn’t really Steve will now forever be known as Slippery Dick.  Slippery Dick was a bit sneaky as he gave Headmistress his own camera to take the photos of the naming so there are none to print just yet!

The merry gang had some lovely eats before suddenly realising that Dave had just completed his third hash and should be named.  We agreed to postpone his naming until next week when there might be a few more hashers to join the circle of friendship!

Next week Christmas hash from IDL Beach hut (also known as Turners beach hut)

Hares Headmistress and Dave and Nip n Suck 

Please bring a plate of eats to share with everyone.
