Grenada Hash House Harriers

"It's only borrowed"!!! Alarmingly for me and "Doggie Style" these were the words from the birthday boy himself "Grandad" and after we went to the trouble to get him the present he always wanted. Actually I have to confess we forgot his cake so "Doggie Style" came up with the idea of buying the ingredients and putting them on his head then asking him to stick his head in the oven til done. We have hashed at Mt Rodney before but as ever "Grandad" found a very different trail which was perfect and the views were stunning. We were blessed with great weather and with perfect visibility meaning that you could see all the islands north and way past Carriacou. Typically he had a trail for all abilities with the iron men catered for right through to the walkers. The beer stop was a welcome relief for many and positioned on "Grandad's" pristine lawn in front of his home, Mt Rodney House, that must have been the most scenic beer stop ever. The lady of the house came along and rode their pet donkey down the hill ably guided by "Speaks with the Dead. Thankfully all three made it safe and sound and no-one made and "ass" of themselves. We had an anxious wait while the stragglers wandered in, my thanks to "Cow Tail" for his help in bringing them all in safely. Then it was on with the fun. Now as most of you know Phil and Annie Clift run Petit Anse Hotel and yesterday some of their guests had been talked into to doing a hash for the first time. Yes they were virgins! No-one had given them the heads up so when they got back from the trail they duely changed into clean clothes and then we de-virginised them!!! Sorry. We had a few birthdays yesterday. As well as "Grandad's", "Flies Undone" also got to drink from the Malice Chalice but was spared the eggs and flour. I said in the details for this hash that there were some surprises lined up and "pinky" and "perky" were one of those. When we arrived the two pigs were cooking beautifully and the nice surprise was that "Grandad" gave the food for free. I think maybe we went too far with the eggs and flour but in his words "it's only borrowed." Next week we have Jah Wise back on the trails with a hash at La Tante. Details will be out shortly. In the meantime I think it's time for a swim. Oh and if anyone happens to see Phil leaving the supermarket with flour and eggs please tell me. ON ON.
