Hello Possums


Hello Possums!

About 19 shy, furry creatures met last Sunday at Kupidabin – the original name for this “place of possums”. 

They frolicked in the bush for an hour or so and then scurried back to gaze at each other with huge dark eyes.  So gentle and lovable.   Unfortunately, they were driven off at 5pm by some big hairy Hashers. 



M. Promptu laid on a range of routes to suit all levels of energy on yet another hot and humid day.  And Pot Luck provided the usual magnificent dinner.  It was good to welcome home Kermit from the Northern Wilds, our Grand Master and Mistress from the gemfields, and to see Boxer and Agnes again.

Meanwhile Lax and LeW*nk, by all accounts have been enjoying some R&R in Far North Queensland taking in the scenery and  investigating things beginning with B: Babinda Boulders...

Car park chaos!

30 of us turned up for Sunday's meet, presenting a bit of a parking challenge at Boombana. Remember Tetris? Once we'd sorted ourselves out, the runners headed off to Jolly's Lookout and the walkers to Nebo Village - all except for Lax, who tripped right at the start and didn't go anywhere. Lucky we had the First Aid kit with us, and Cash Converta to use it.

Once back at the picnic area, Escargot and her helpers unveiled a feast of quiche and salads to great acclaim. Many thanks to them!

Down, downs were awarded to Escargot for some invisible trail markings, to Scratchit for becoming a grandfather and to Hot to Trot on her welcome return to Samford.

The latest news on Lax is that she received more medical attention from Doctor Le W*nk on Sunday night and that despite this she was able to head off on a work trip to Mackay on Monday. Get well soon, Lax! And get yourself a real doctor!
