This explains some of the grunts and groans heard from the hashers.

 

Hash Giveaway table - covered while run in progress

(Hashers give away stuff they don't need - including books - to other hashers)

 

The hares Kum Kwik & Polli.

Kum Kwik lies through his teeth about the trail as any good hare should.

 

A nice flat bit to start with

AND LATER - After lunch at the taverna - KITE FLYING

Doggie Style with Mad Dog's new kite

 

The wind starts to drop & keeping the kite flying becomes more difficult

 

  

Doggie Style tries her best...

 

...But the kite comes down.

 

The visitors from Rome get their small kite going...

 

...And look pleased with themselves.

Strawberry4Skin wasn't having much luck with his sports kite.

 

Fair Cop & Wet Dream with their kite
