It was lovely to see Big Stiffy back taking a full part in the hash again.  Walking the whole route and keeping everyone so cheerful.

Hotlips has insider knowledge in this village as her mum … more

Many thanks to Swallow for this Hash Trash.  As I shall miss a number of winter runs if ANYONE fancies writing a trash and sending it to me I'd be greatful. Zorro - please let me know the length … more

The first Sunday trail, lovely weather and the promise of pork pie.  What more could anyone ask?  I can’t write much about what happened on the trail because I had to abandon Hotlips … more

All but Hotlips were sure the trail led to the left so the hare had to persuade someone to back her up to hear her call ‘On’ as she reached The Fish.  Across the road to Sutton Pools … more

We set off up … more

We met in the car park opposite the pub just as it was trying to rain.  A good crowd set off to find the on out which went through the church yard before heading west to the edge of the village … more

What perfect planning by the hares, although we could see the rain we managed to stay ahead of it all the way round the trail, getting back to the pub to find our cars rather wet!

Another visit to this part of the world.  A hash with a difference because it was somewhat square shaped.  We headed off East, under the A34 and into the field.  Then we headed … more
