Fifteen hashers including three ankle bitters enjoyed this sunny arborial, autumnal hash in the Foret de Bouconne Sunday. They were not alone because Its Complicated (IC), our experienced Religious Advisor (RA) in retirement, had stepped in and organised wonderful weather, which brought out hundreds of randoneurs, dog walkers and people just enjoying this wonderful place. So many in fact it was tricky for IC to park his magnificent Mustang Motor vehicle.
Everyone found the trail, partially shared by the walkers and joggers upto the Napoleonic signalling tower and back via a short or long route. The two groups of hashers arrived back almost together for the post hash refreshments and the circle, wherein;
- The Hare’s trail was judged. Ironic comments followed; not enough shiggy (ankle deep in places!), not far enough (8.5 or 11k App dependent & 5k respectively), and finally the hares took their reward with a down -down.
- Short cutters, Hairy Shoes & Rocket Lips, were punished.
- Returners, Grotty Totty and Hairy Shoes, were rewarded for getting their priorities correct.
- Its Complicated explained for the benefit of new recruits, the role of RA, for which he was rewarded.
- Too Complicated entered the circle for having no hash gear and we discussed the bottleneck of the provision of new Hash T Shirts. Money, money, money….we don’t have funds to order 50 shirts so Cheesy Lollipop may ask for money in advance from the 30 already ordered. Are you ready to pay!
- SDU, Lapdancer and Rocket Lips explained the origin of their hash names and we planned the hares for December and January in principle, as below.
