As a stroke of luck, the clouds brightened a day earlier than anticipated and Summer briefly returned to welcome 17 hashers & 2 ankle biters to the beautiful town of Tournefeuille for TTR & ER’s October hash. Unfortunately, due to some undisclosed admin issues, the author of this Hash Trash missed the trail but I understand that it was an excellent set of trails passing various bodies of water and herds of people basking in this mid-October sun. For the runners it was an apparently easy 11km and for the walkers a surprisingly lengthy 8km, resulting in the beer stop being brought to the walkers instead of the walkers arriving with the runners
That aside, hymn sheets were handed out and the circle commenced at the entrance to the park land with passers by looking on in interest at what was taking place – it was a shame that we didn’t have flyers to handout to bring in some new recruits
We rewarded the hares for a well-organized trail, with some commenting that it was even too short – I can only assume that they had over indulged in the beer stop cum circle beers for coming to that conclusion. TMI and virgin Just Hongyuan were punished for their short cutting but Glory Hole felt obliged to accompany them in the centre of the circle for aiding and abetting their short cutting by driving them to the halfway point of the walker’s trail
Next in-line was to welcome the 4, yes FOUR, virgins into the circle. All were renditioned with a carefully selected chant from the hymn sheet and all vowed that they will return:
– Just Gwen of Brittany, made to cum by Glory Hole
– Just Marie of Toulouse, made to cum by Just Vanessa
– Just Hongyuan of China, made to cum by TMI
– Just Diego of ½ France/½ Mexico, also made to cum by Glory Hole
Shortly after we welcomed returners Viet Dong and Just Ksenia to the circle and took advantage of our increasing Russian fan base by singing the old classic Pissanya Pissanya
As this was the Halloween Hash, a special punishment was performed for those not even attempting to wear anything Halloween’ee, and those who did make an effort (and a great effort we all agree) were duly rewarded. As usual, we touched on the controversial topic of punishing those named hashers who didn’t sport official hash gear and this led us to the reminder that we really must sort out the new hash t-shirts. TMI has offered to work with Lap Dancer to manage the design of the new t-shirts and promised to rope in sole graphic designer friends of hers to come up with something super cool for us…….so watch this space. Finally we rounded off the circle in traditional form and made our way over to Chez TTR & ER for a fantastic BBQ where we met with Nice Dish and Grotty Totty who had set it all up whilst the run was taking place
