Revels and recovery

The jolly old Christmas Season continues to bless us with good times together as we meet up with old friends and new (that sounds quite Dickensian, dunnit?) And we still have one run to go before Christmas Day!

Hash Christmas was a great opportunity to catch up with some we haven't seen for a while. Hot to Trot, Wizbanger, Slammit and Upfront came all the way from Canberra just to be with us. And Miss Fit and Gastrick brought along a young fella who has really turned into a Welsh rugby forward in the months since we last met up with him.

Fun and games were as usual followed by the consumption of gargantuan quantities of food and drink.

















Many thanks to our hospitable hosts and games organisers Strine and Charcoal!

On the following day Mile High and Hugandkiss broke all records for turning up late by arriving for the Christmas party 24 hours after the event! They came on to our Rest and Recovery Run bearing a delicious trifle, which we might not have had room for the day before....

Knocking Shop visited us from Japan and was led astray by Culture - who got her lost despite a really well-laid trail. She'll have some stories of being bushed in the outback to take home to Tokyo with her.

They both enjoyed(?) a pink down, down:

And we celebrated a significant birthday with a naming ceremony as well. Happy birthday and welcome to your new name, Lax!

Masterchef and recovering revellers:


Many thanks to our hares, Banger and Make an Offer!

MEANWHILE, elsewhere in the world - Superhacker spotted this evidence of a Hash trail through the Hong Kong market area:

And Hopalong celebrated a truly Dickensian Christmas season by building a politically correct snowperson:

Next run details
When: Sunday 24th December, 5 pm
Where: John Scott Park, Samford Village
Hares: M. Promptu will set the run. We will adjourn to a neighbouring hostelry for Christmas Eve refreshment and a meal.

On, on!
