This week's hash took us on an impressive tour of 19th Century Brisbane architecture. with a bespoke sneak through Bishopsbourne. Before anyone could set off though, we had to film the TnT promo video on behalf of Australia (no pressure). There was quite a bit of stripping off, and cross dressing as Hash T-shirts were dispensed from Cashconverter and Payback's car and this was the final take
Our hare took us on an intriguing route through many ginnels. snickets and back passages of Milton and Paddington, the route took in a number of historical details.
Hash Architectural Delights
On our return there was salad (green and potato), silverside and a toothsome array of pickles. Both Superhacker and Leavepass forgot their origins and over-indulged in hot English mustard resulting in a full clearing of the sinuses, and a temporary (if somewhat welcome) inability to communicate.
As the sun went down we celebrated two significant hash birthdays Evacuate is ten times the age of his daughter (how clever of them to arrange their birthdays so close together). We were treated to delicious Pavlova and Trifle. Many thanks to our indomitable hare Culture,
The ceremony set Superhacker off on a trip down memory lane, to when Hopalong celebrated her third birthday in the same park in March 2006. Later that year these two were to join Samford Hash, but here they are pictured in their innocence...
At the On-On we greeted a couple of visitors from Tweed Heads Strong Arm and Muscles and their grand-dog Ziggy who was keen to get acquainted with the other Hash Dogs - Gunther asked to be blurred out for this festival of bottom sniffing and general examination of calling cards...
Payback also gave Evacuate some sage advice on how to approach a mid-life crisis since Evacuate has hit a bithday with a zero on it. Whilst we are all familiar with the sportscar-tattoo-piercing-younger woman memes around mid life, here is the definitive list from a recent Guardian article. I am pretty sure that the Samford Hash has covered this list in the past decade...Marathons, Becoming a Lycra Clad, Pondering your mortgage/superannuation. extreme sports, grey gap years, moisturising, starting a business, You name it we've done it
