Hash for me started in the morning with a word of warning from some of the Hares to advise the ladies who like to take it “Slowly” that they might need to pick up the pace, as it’s a long run. Torches Please. So arrived at Amanda’s house mentally prepared to come out in the dark.

We set off down the road and into the jungle for a short bit where there were candles in the ground all ready to be lit (not a positive sign for a short easy run). Down the gravel road we went. I live in Spg 787 and never realized that such a network of roads or gardens existed right behind us.

Finally to first check… would they lay it through the gardens???… Would they take us all the way back to the main gravel road???? Ah paper on ahead. Down through another bit of jungle and then onto what appeared to be a large flat piece of land…. Brown land that much to our surprise and Boel’s scream (and Trish’s wee bath in it as we discovered later) we realized that it was full of mud pits if you stood in the right place. So careful footing and across we went – second check called and everyone busy hunting. On paper back and we’re back on track past the mini airport and wait on…. We’re back on the out trail that has lollipop’ed onto itself. Wow, going past those candles not requiring lighting and past Nicole’s for a wee chat and OUT!!!
OH NO – wrong paper was picked up on the second check – we should have gone through some very rough, swampy jungle!! OOPS. Instead we took a short cut picked up the out paper and out we came.

I thought the run was great!! It was especially nice to see some ladies back doing the hash that haven’t been for a while. Shout up was good with a special beer being given to Ruth for her excellent job with the words and of course her excellent photos of what really goes on under kilts!!! and the food…. something very close to my heart…. FANTASTIC!!! Thanks ladies for providing a great run, a great location and great food!! Loved the punch!!
On On
