Real men and unreal men

There was bacon and egg pie for the real men this Sunday - and quiche for the unreal ones. Numbers were smallish (14 humans and 3 dogs) for this long weekend/footyfinal run, but we polished off both dishes anyway.

This was our first meet at Tinchi Tamba, and it turned out to be a very scenic spot for a flaaaat run/walk beside the water. The tide was too high to spot wading birds from the hide, but we did see some biggish Macropus giganteus - oh, OK...grey kangaroos, then.

And (courtesy of Superhacker) here's another sunset earlier this week over the water off Fiji:

The group of 7 hashers who have been over there are due back this week, and Superhacker is hosting a "Jacarandas of UQ" run/walk this coming Sunday. Some of us missed out on the jacaranda run last year because we were in Tuscany. But do you remember this exciting excursion around UQ earlier in 2013? Or this one?

Events are starting to pile up - as they do at this time of the year. The end of this month sees a number of us treading the boards again in the 2014 Samford pantomime:

Then some of us - me hearties - will be taking to the water for a piratical Hash houseboat weekend at the end of November. Hash Christmas follows on the 6th December. And then there's the Red Dress Run on December 8th....

Mark your diaries, everyone!
