Amazing space

It's been a long and massive project, but the impressive results are really starting to show. Only those who'd seen the "before" state of Lax and Le W*nk's renovated forever home could fully appreciate the immense transformation that has taken place - and there's more to come...an extension, a new driveway, marble on the patio floor, a boundary wall, etc., etc! We'll have a chance to gawp at the finished result when our hares host this year's Hash Christmas party (wonder which bits of the house we'll be allowed into then?). Congratulations to them both!

Runners and walkers set off in opposite directions on some well-marked trails. Runners headed into the woods along a lot of winding and confusing paths, with plenty of falsies and lots of opportunities to get lost. None of them did. The walkers tended to stay amongst the houses. Did any of them get lost? Well - let's just say that it was lucky for a couple of them that they met a nice young man who let them use his phone. What he wanted in return we'll never know....

Back home we enjoyed a very tasty beef bourguignon (and vegetarian alternative) followed by "home-made" cake. The new kitchen can certainly produce good food! Many, many thanks to our hares - good walk, good run, great meal!

We welcomed back Snappy after her absolutely epic time away! And Streaky paid us a visit as well.

Bearing up

 The runners headed up the hill to meet up once more with the Ironbark Bears...


 

...while the walkers explored the uppermost reaches of Kedron Brook, where the tracks were still showing some damage from recent flooding. It had begun to rain as the trail was set, but not enough to wash the chalk and flour away, and, almost unbelievably, no-one got lost.

Our hares, who had been away for several weeks in Illyria (the setting for Twelfth Night) were welcomed back by those who could still remember who they were. We have sometimes been colder and wetter in Ironbark Gully (but not much) and we hope that no-one went hungry.

Here are some pics of the event, courtesy of Cash Converta and Saucy Sous:
