VICTORIA FALLS HASH Extended Weekend: Thursday 20th April 2006 - Monday 24th April 2006 French Nash Hash 2006. Friday 22nd September - Sunday 24th September. Presqu'ile de Giens 3 days of action packed Interhashing in Chiang Mai in 27-29 October 2006
All the beautiful people turned out for the first hash in St Tropez. Most managed to cope with the change in the clocks to try and get there on time, but had not foreseen that the traffic would be held up for 20 minutes for a Triathlon to pass through. We gathered in a huge car park, large enough for a whole hash, where the Triathlon still seemed to be going strong. They had the benefit of their trail being laid in red painted feet, confusingly pointing both ways- maybe that's what triathlons are about- but we didn't even have any flour trail in the car park. Cool Dude, one of the hares, told us to follow him and he led us past the big yachts in the port and into the village where the flour started. Did we lose hashers as we ran by the shops? It seemed probable that some of the walkers would be tempted off the path of righteousness. We were seriously mixed up with the triathletes as we went through the village and, as their red feet indicated, they were both running in our direction and coming from the opposite direction. We then came across a check- the triathletes didn't have to cope with this- Dingus went off checking to the right and Sadist off to the left, where he eventually found flour and the trail and called OnOn. It was therefore a bit surprising a few hundred yards later to find that Dingus and several others were way ahead of him and Supermarket Trolley- someone not following flour? There was a scarcity of checks on the trail- after this one, there were only 2 others as far as I can recall- perhaps El Toro thought that with 3 Poles on the hash that day we didn't need any more checks. Anyway we seemed to get the idea that once we were on the beach we would be running round the coastal path. On the sandy shore we had outrun the triathletes and quite soon came across El Toro and the beer stop which was very welcome. After the usual gossiping and the walkers catching up, El Toro waved us off round the sentier littoral once again. We were to watch out for a couple of black and yellow boys which the French navy had chucked in the sea. After a bit of running on the road, we were once again on the coastal path where the trail took us over sandy beaches, beaches covered with dried seaweed, along narrow little paths and up and down steps and rocks, the sea off to our left and expensive residences to our right. Dingus set the pace followed by Perpetch and Cool Dude, Supermarket Trolley and Wetspot. In and out of the kinks in the coastline the FRBs were soon out of sight. The yellow and black buoys came into sight, seeming quite far away out to sea, and then we were past them and came to a wide white sandy beach with a flagpole which was the end of the trail. At the foot of the flagpole was a coolbox of beers. Dingus attempting to apply some premature optimization went of in search of further refreshments but was frustrated by the keys to the beer car being mislaid and it was ages before he returned with the usual assortment of exotic flavoured crisps: poppadoms and marmalade, roast pork and pistachio ice cream, etc,- whatever next?- for which we must thank Virgin Mouth. The sun had by now appeared so it was very agreeable waiting on the beach for the walkers to arrive- they had scorned El Tor's suggestion of a short cut along the road and had opted for taking the long trail along the coastal path. The last walkers arrived about an hour after the FRBs had reached the beach. Some notes on who had turned out for the first day of summer time- Anne of Cleavage and Knickerlicker both looking very co-ordinated and smart ready for summer in St Tropez; No Satisfaction had brought out her sunglasses but refused to give out the dirt on what really happened in the alpine chalet with Cumalot, Klingon and Jobsworth. Roadrunner appeared on his first hash for a year after being released from his skiing holiday in a Kitzbuhl hospital. Beaulocks was able to join us once again as she works in a St Tropez hotel. Klingon had brought Boots on his bike, a virgin hasher that day in spite of coming from Kuala Lumpur, the home of the hash. Prestressed, since Skinny A was not there, gave a Dior Kiss to Beaulocks ( this being a cosmetic he had found on the beach). The circle was held on the beach with Dingus as RA, it was interrupted by a local dog, which bore a strong resemblance to a polar bear, attacking Miss Kitty's dog. Attempts to separate them were concluded by Confusion with her patented survival method for unwelcome male attentions..

There were some cars prepositioned in the nearby car park but El Toro's statement that it was only a 15 minute run back, gradually increased to it being a 15 to 20 minute run then to a 20 to 30 minute run. Nevertheless , some FRBs hadn't had enough exercise and set off in the direction of St Tropez village. Back in the car park we changed for our Indian meal at the Gandhi Restaurant. The pricing policy was definitely St Tropez, we paid more than the price advertised outside and got less. Nor was there a secret Onion Barjee password to get a free Cobra beer. Klingon was awarded his 50 Run mug which he promptly decided needed a battered look. (Cool Dude has another 12 hashes to go to get his mug.) |
