At this stage we have at least 15 members of Samford Hash signed up for Interhash 2024 in New Zealand - and those who have put their names down for the Ballbreaker run are talking about getting into training for it. But the rain this last Sunday was too heavy and cold for anyone to run in it, and we all ended up skulking around the walkers' circuit under umbrellas. In one way, though, this was good training for Queenstown, where the March average maximum is 20 degrees, and the average minimum is 5....
Dripping but cheerful, the brave souls who had turned up for this year's Mothers' Day event headed back to the hare's place for some very tasty chicken masala and - for everyone but the real men - quiche. Many thanks to Leave Pass for the washed-out trail and the meal!

We usually present our Mother Superior award on the second Sunday in May. This year, however, our intended recipient (who has been with Samford Hash for something like 32 years, but never won this prestigious piece of formidable foundationwear) wasn't present. So we've determined to catch up with her the next time we see her and force her to model it. We look forward to this.
A Hash group is being organised to attend the SPADEwerx production of Agatha Christie's "The Hollow" on one of the Sunday 6 pm performances. Look out for details in Hash emails.
And a reminder - please try to leave some parking spaces close to our run venues for the Beermeisters and Winos. They have some heavy but essential supplies to deliver. Thanks!
