Grenada Hash House Harriers

It's days like yesterday that I realise why Saturdays are so much fun. Yesterday, at the "Donkey Stable" we met on the side of the road with out a real shop and had a great afternoon. Sometimes it is good to take a look from the outside. You would see 150 plus people from all walks of life gathering at two tin shacks on the side of a road. One of the shacks is cooking food the other has coolers with ice cold beer. The crazy leader gets anyone who wears new shoes to make sure they are hash worthy!!!. He then gives the virgins instructions before giving details of the ridiculous trail and off they all go to get muddy , sweaty and exhausted. Then back to base for that great food and beer. When they are satisfied all bodies are back safe it's time to give anyone that has done wrong some treatment!! Then make sure the virgins are made welcome. Yes we are a crazy bunch but what we all have in common is we love Grenada and we love the beauty that each week we are treated to. Thanks yesterday to " Respect de Bananas" a great hash although the walkers was a bit too short. I liked the way you managed to confuse so many by simply putting a sign up with Iron man trail. Still it will teach them to actually listen to " Softwood" now and again!!!! We gave all those who ended up doing the walkers and runners trail a collective hash name yesterday. The " Alzheimer's posse"!!! Two other hashers earned individual names yesterday Joanne Glyde for doing the trail in the sitting position and therefore giving great profits to the washing powder companies got the name " Going down". Then photo evidence from "Bush Blackberry" earned Capt. Ben Choi a name. The unique way he descended a particular difficult spot got him the name" Spiderman" Next week we are at the Tempe playing field Troy back setting the trail with that regular back up Lester who will be getting a name very soon and if he escapes one more week the name will be a lot worse. Full details on the hash very soon. The 22nd December is our Christmas hash party . We are heading to Fort Jeudy to redo the trail we did under moonlight 18 months ago with some different twists. As ever we will have a lot of festive fun with the hash carol choir making a return and the annual hash awards will take place. Voting will take place on the 15th Dec. I hope all is well with those who are on Mt St. Catherine today. Till next week have a good one. ON ON!!!

That was just what we all wanted. Get the shoes on and go off running, scrabbling, sliding in the bush. Thanks to "Hopeless" for a great trail. It maybe time to change that name if you carry on with trails like that. Although I was not too happy about going through farmers fields. " Hopeless" did say they were his so I suppose it's OK but message to hares that was a one off. The views were truly fantastic. The Rum Shop did not let us down with great food as well. Thanks to all who helped. I will not mention the retribution that is coming to certain individuals for callous disregard for 7 months hard work. Just keep looking over your shoulder guys. Now we get busy. There are some who did not do the Extreme hash in Grand Etang two weeks ago. This Tuesday they are heading back up there to redo that trail. I have to warn anyone who is thinking about this. No children!!! No dogs!!! Please ensure you have both hands free. The trail will not be remarked, it will not be dealt with as a hash. This is simply a group of you out in the bush on a trail. So no back up. You will get wet up to your neck so be warned about cameras and phones etc. Start time is 3pm prompt. Next week on Saturday we have a hash in Vincennes with "Respect de Bananas". More details to follow. Next Sunday in memory of "Bush Princess", " Mountain Goat" has organised a climb up Mt St Catherine. Meet at 8am in Grenville car park. Again this is not a walk in the park this is a very serious climb so only go if you are fit and able. For now I'm off to clean "Gerty"!!!! Do enjoy your Sunday. ON ON
