once more to cries of "On, on!" as Samford hashers took up the 2010 University Challenge. Superhacker and her parents had done a great job of setting the run/walk as late as possible so that the rain (and hungry scrub turkeys) had but little time to destroy the trail markings.
These led the walkers on a scenic route along the river, past the university lakes and fountain, and then past the famous St Lucia chippy before taking them home through the Great Court. The jacarandas were in bloom and many wedding photographers were making artistic use of them. I wonder - how many wedding photos from this weekend will feature Samford Hash?
The runners should have followed a similar circuit, but they proved themselves seriously intellectually challenged by losing the trail somewhere in St Lucia. They ended up near the Toowong Village shopping centre before they'd worked out their way home. Not even a Conceded Pass, I'm afraid....
Tennis and some seriously tasty nosh at the Tennis Centre followed - as did the rain which had fortunately held off for the run/walk itself. Many thanks to our hare and her assistanta!
