Overheard on the hash (9th June 2015)

“It’s like Rambo First Blood meets the Matrix - bobby-trapped woods and lots of men in blue shirts running past” [Matt W muses on the joys of Matt R’s hash]

”All the FRB’s were wearing blue - Ant,  Alan, Aaron…even Andy.”  “Well, technically that was more dark blue, and Andy’s more of a FB than an FRB” [Sarah & Matt debate The Matrix link]

 “Do you think we’re actually on a hash….or are we being led to a clearing where we’ll be piled into trucks and driven off to somewhere in E.Europe” [Dr Dan debates his immediate future]

”If a Saudi blogger gets 1,000 lashes, what would you give this hash? “Oh, at least 100…for starters” [Dr Dan debates Matt R’s immediate future]

“Could somebody else go first please - I don’t like nettles” “But you’ve got running tights on” “I know but I’ve also got very sensitive legs”  [Helen tries and fails to bargain with the Hash]

6 F*cking Falses! [Numerous]

”Simon made the Shorts run - we actually did a 6 On-Back…even though there were only 4 of us!”[Whipping Boy starts to outstay his welcome with the Shorts]

“It’s amazing - with all the Summer Shiggy around, Paul didn’t moose once” [sound of crashing beer glasses in the background]  ”Ah, that’ll be Paul’s beer moose” [note: the barman did say the tables were wonky….or haunted….or maybe Paul was just plain clumsy - pick whichever you prefer]
