RIP Darcy

To start on a sad note, this week saw the passing of Darcy, who for much of his life was a keen Samford hasher. He was always eager to get going, yelping "Come on, what are we waiting for? On, on! On, on, guys!" He was always keen on tucking into any Hash nosh that was going. And he also saw Hash meets as an opportunity to do some exploring on his own - most notably on a memorable occasion in 2010. Miss Demeanour, Shockjock and Co. have lost a much-loved member of their family, and we will miss him from the Hash family too. RIP, Darcy.

We had a surprisingly large crowd for a Mothers' Day run this week. M. Promptu took us a short distance up Cedar Creek to Bellbird Grove and around a very pretty circuit which included a few creek crossings. And Potluck as usual produced a varied and substantial feast.
 

This year's Mother Superior Award went to someone who has been a hasher for a very long time - since the days when her own mother and father lived in Samford and used to hash with us. As Culture said, she displays notable mothering behaviour within her own family, and no doubt with her students. Scratchit testified that she's a "Mother Hen" - his words, not mine! And she showed off the formidable foundation-wear that make up the award with flair and aplomb! Congratulations, Floater.
