There were some impressive constructions to admire on this Sunday's walk and run. Part way along the creek was a new million-dollar horse arena that could host equestrian events at the 2032 Olympics. And then a little further on was a turkey nest that Kevin McCloud might well consider filming....
There was also an innovative goat bed:
and, for those who took an alternative route along Woods Road, a converted church painted to match the jacarandas:
It's been a dry year, and the creek is starting to retreat into a series of pools. Those who diverted a little to look at them were rewarded with some scenic views and the occasional industrial-archaeological find:
And talking of pools, the appeal for people to car-pool up the hares' driveway was so successful that there were plenty of spare car spaces left up by the house. It's hard to get it right!

And here are some people replenishing their bodily fluids and stuffing their faces:
Now that mince pies have appeared in the supermarkets, it was clearly time to make decisions re the Hash Christmas party, and we did this in the circle. The party will be on Saturday 16th December at Saucy Sous and Dumbbell's place - and they have lots of events planned besides chucking Le W*nk into the pool. This date also means that Hopalong will be able to join us with lots of news from the Old Country, and we're looking forward to that.
Elsewhere in the world, Bigtop has been visiting Superhacker and Co. in the said Old Country and enjoying an English summer. Malpractice is clearly still a dab hand with the punt pole:
