There were a number of apologies: Possum and Ha'penny were overseas, as were Le Wank, Vegemite, Superhacker and Hopalong. Kegguard (the sole founding member still in the area) was intending to make it but was ill, as was Roddy McDowell.

We also held another naming ceremony on the night - welcome to Afterburn!

Thanks to Charcoal and Strine - along with B & W, our only members who have been with Samford Hash since the earliest days - for hosting this run. It was a memorable occasion and a great night. Here's to the next 1000!
