Tis the season...

for snowmen in 30 degree heat, 

for over-the-top Christmas light displays,

for wombats with antlers, 

and for Hash Christmas party preparations....

Our hares Idle Vice and Upstanding took us on a flat(ish) circuit that showed off the highlights of the area - the hipster cafes, the hoarders' houses, the eyefulls of festive illumination, and (probably) the odd murder site as well. The runners were not very good at seeing arrows and added quite a bit to the route they were intended to take, but (shh, don't tell anyone) took a shortcut on the way home.

Back at the hares' we enjoyed curry, rice and pavlova, while the Wilston fruitbats began their evening excursions overhead. Great run, great meal - thanks to Upstanding and Idle Vice!

Here are a few more pics from the occasion, courtesy of Saucy Sous and Cash Converta:

Listening to the chalk talk - without interruptions by You-know-who:

A couple more shots from the walk:


Back at the hares':








On Thursday some Hash members will be meeting with Hopalong to sort and shift some gear in Superhacker's lockup. And then on Saturday we'll be meeting at Dumbbell and Saucy Sous' for the 2023 Hash Christmas party. There'll be about 40 people, tons of food, the 2023 Hash Mash ale, games, Secret Santa and more! We expect a smallish recovery run - and leftovers - on Sunday.

Next run/walk details

When: Sunday 17th December, 5 pm

Where: John Scott Park, Samford Village

Hares: M. Promptu will choose the route. Potluck will cater (leftovers from Hash Christmas, we hope)

On, on!
