Run No. 183 - 2nd September 2006
Last week’s Hash was one fine butter smooth run; mainly because the forest floor was sloshed with the recent rains. It was tricky too and deliciously slippery, but nevertheless enjoyable as the hassle of searching trail marks was for once overlooked.
The loyal hash bunch turned up at the prompt time of 4:00 p.m. sharp and set off to some well trodden and other unknown territories at the Nature Trail. No wild life greeted the busy bee Harrietts but true to the spirit of straying, if a chance was offered, the side lanes leading to the farm were explored extensively. Not for any socio-scientific reasons mind you, but to get some insight into the secrets of healthy salad plants. Well, the natural Hash guide who normally knows nothing about Nature was busy with the Agricultural Show on the other side of the Hash world apparently trying to impart Hash Culture as a new farming activity to the older generation. The group gave up the great challenge of pursuing salad plants for counting wriggling worms instead in absence of this great personality.
By the time the stamina levels were used up to their maximum, the welcome Bandas were most appreciated. A party was on for someone’s birthday and the Hash group was welcomed with open arms and open bottles of a sweeter softer variety of drinks.
