Hares On Holidays --- Next Run TBA






Almost all our regular keen Hashers have chosen to go on holiday, a Hash dirty weekend, a business trip or are going to be kidnapped for Father's Day.

We have no Hares for Sunday the 06th so there won't be a run.

We'd welcome any volunteer Hares to set a run soon.


Run Report - No 8 - South Pine River Crossing

The day of the ‘Bridge to Brisbane’ saw us (also) hashing across the South Pine River and through some of Brisbane’s northern suburbs.

We met in front of ‘Durban Curry’ - only to find that they had just gone bust the previous day. But no worries there – we quickly decided to relocate for a top nosh after our walk to an Indian Curry across the road.

Muka Puki and Oils joined again and introduced us to their friend Backdoor Girl who we all welcomed in our midst.

Skidmark, Sherpa and Topless were ready to roll, Stubby eager to start - but where was Schnapps? Schnapps ?? ‘Schnapps has left me’ Stubby informed us upon request. But don’t panic - all’s good – she returned moments later with a smile – so: all is well that ends well J Schnapps and Stubby were our hares on the day and a big Thank You to both of them for being our hares two runs in a row.

We started our 8+ km run/walk shortly after 4 pm. Only Topless found it a little difficult to find her way = the arrow pointing the group in the right direction at the start. With a little help from her friends, though, pointing it out to her she finally found what she was looking for.

The run was really well marked and took us through suburban parkland as well as bushland and along and across the South Pine River. Some checks and hills kept us on our toes and made the run interesting and fun.

After 90 minutes we all gathered back at the start and the hash circle witnessed the down down’s of some overachievers: Stubby and Schnapps for setting a really long walk, and Topless for taking part in the ‘Bridge 2 Brisbane’ as well as the Hash walk. Visitor Backdoor Girl was also down downed to a new but nice song.

All in all it was a good afternoon run with a lovely evening meal to match.

Our next run will be in two weeks time with further details still to be advised since most of our potential hares are ‘on tour’ next Sunday.
