The temperatures have been telling us that winter ended a good while ago - but in our traditional designation of the seasons our next meet will be the first of the summer ones, marked by a 5 pm (1700 h, as Upstanding put it) start time.
Our hares had picked an idyllic setting beside the lakes at Warner this last Sunday, and took us on a route that explored some areas of the suburb that we haven't visited before. Here are a couple of Cash Converta's views of the walk:
There was plenty to look at along the way. Some people noted the number of businesses being operated from home, while others remarked on the smallness of the arrows marking the trail...but there was no excuse for those who missed the turn in through the koala fence and were consequently awarded a down, down:
It was good to see Gillian again on one of her flying visits from California, and to sing "Happy birthday" to Hugandkiss. Our hares laid on a magnificent burger feast, with lashings of trimmings, sauces and options. Here they are, hard at work - many thanks to them for the trail and the meal!
And here are some more of Cash Converta's shots of hashers enjoying the burgers, the company, and the late afternoon breeze. Can anyone recall if the conversation occasionally turned to rugby and the World Cup at all?
Next week will be our Halloween Run, so once again you are invited to leave off your usual make-up and masks, and come as your real scary self! You'll find some examples in the blog archives of what Samford hashers really look like beneath the surface....
Finally, the Brisbane Red Dress Run is coming up on Monday December 4th. We usually have a great turnout from Samford for this charity event, so mark the date in your diaries and check your little red number - does your bum look big in it, and do you need to head to an Op Shop to replace it?
