This week’s thrilling
episode starts at the Girl Guides campsite. There was a surprisingly good turnout,
knowing Over-n-Done With’s reputation for a tough hash or as she puts it “I
like to make the boys cry”. Herr-Less Twitcher arrived, realized who had set
the hash and that she had also brought Amy and Makayla to witness this suddenly
remembered some paperwork he had to do. The hash also saw the return of Glitoris
of the P2H4 Hash, revisiting the island after an extended tour of the Pacific.
The Hash brief was
short, it was a “straight-forward” hash with only 4 circle checks and limited
hazards. Which only made those of the multitude who were familiar with an
Over-n-Done With hash even more apprehensive. The On-On was sounded and the
hashers set off. Swinging around the Scout’s Campground the trial hit the Old
NASA Mountain Road, still in surprisingly good shape. From there it followed
along to the old western slope water catchment, rarely seen these days. After
the 2nd circle check, the path continued upwards, cutting Scouts
trail then swinging around to NE Cottage. After a pause to imagine the views
when the cottage was new.
The mob moved from the
campsite to the Crystal Bay trailhead picnic area for the post hash. After
getting settled the hash was called to order for 3 naming’s. First up was Mrs
Palm, whose name came from an alarming tendency to miss island events while
spending quality time alone with his laptop. He was quickly followed by Lady
Boy George; this name took a little more time with the initial focus being on
some ill-conceived grooming decisions but finally his recent use of the 1980’s
pop icon as a fashion standard decided the day. Happy Ending’s naming had been
delayed a couple of times, with inputs coming in from several locations
worldwide and in at least three different languages. After much debate it was
finally her so-called sister, for reasons that cannot be explained or
quantified in a family paper, which came up with the name.
The post hash
conversation ran the usual gambit of world changing solutions, it is a pity we
just never remember any of them. The younger hashers, in a burst of civic
responsibility brought on by their Scout training took upon themselves to clean
up the empty drink containers left behind by previous picnickers. Really people
is it that hard to take your trash with you?
