Quality, not quantity

A smallish but high-quality group - eleven or twelve bipeds (including one new runner) and two canines - met at John Scott Park this last Sunday for a wintry trot around the Samford circuit. Luckily the wind had dropped but there was still a chill in the air. Idle Vice, Shockjock and Leave Pass entertained with jokes and charades. Leave Pass is up next week for a charade.... 

Here are some of Saucy Sous' pics from the occasion.

Now stop me if you've heard this one:

A bloke is trying to eat his lunch beside the river, while an annoying dog (not at all like Gunther or Pablo) is jumping up, trying to get at his sandwich. He asks the owner "Is it OK if I throw him a bit?" She agrees with a smile. So he picks up the dog and throws it in the river.

Numbers will be limited again next week, so it will be another John Scott Park meet.

Next run/walk details

When: Sunday 28th July, 4 pm

Where: John Scott Park, Samford Village

Hares: M. Promptu will set the route. Dinner afterwards at a venue on Main Street. The Beermeister will bring the beer and the winos the wine.

On, on!

Vive la France!

The Hash Francophiles were out in force last Sunday. Some went to a lot of trouble in dressing up for Bastille Day, but the berets and scarves proved useful in the rather blustery weather.

Here's Saucy Sous' pic of the group, which might have been captured on one of the boulevards of Paris:

Haughty was playing elsewhere, so the ailing runners took it easy without the pressure of keeping up with him. The trail was a bit longer than usual, but this increased appetites for the food extravaganza provided by Saucy Sous and Dumbell.  The French-themed home-made food included ham and cheese croissants, mini quiches, pissaladiere, chicken drumsticks in sauce, creamy pasta, salad and to top it off - mouth watering apple fritters and profiteroles.  After all that, we needed a workout in Dumbell's gym.

You might be aware that Superhacker (Sophie) will grace us with her presence this October. To celebrate, Miss Demeanour plans to have a Femmes get together at Maroochydore on the last weekend of October. If you are interested, please have a chat to her or advise via the Hash email address.

The SPADEwerx production of Cosi opens next weekend:

As some are attending the performance at 5 pm, next Sunday's venue will be John Scott Park, and those who are not playgoing will proceed to the pub.

And now here are some of Snappy's shots from last Sunday:
