Another photo opportunity

 

Mad Dog's turn .....

 

What are Coke Dealer & Rim Job up to?

 

Mountain Goat heads down a steep slope

 

There he goes.

 

And here comes the hare!

 

Down, down, down (now that sounds familiar?)

 

Mountain Goat rests and asks for water.

 

Be careful what you ask for on the hash!!

 

Thrice Nightly has a bleeding knee - so Mad Dog washes it

 

Rocket Socket still carrying the hash horn

 

An amazing photo of Rim Job actually airborne as he jumps down from the rocks

 


Another Panoramic photo - so scroll Right a bit to view it all >>>>>

 


One way of getting attention is to paint your apartment building a bright purple.

Coke Dealer & Captain Sumo - what ARE you doing! Sex on the hash is not allowed!!

 

Mountain Goat nimbly clambers down the rock

 

Here comes Mad Dog

 

And then Rocket Socket using an alternative method

 

The On Inn - thank god!!

 

Mad Dog tripped and fell on the road just 200 metres from the end of the run.
You should see the knee!

 


Socialising at the end of the run

 

The Circle

This was held on Captain Sumo's rooftop terrace - as was super the curry meal


The directions to the hash - for the record

 

 

Hash Moneybags:

 

Easiest way to come to the area is to join the Imittos ring and take the Papagou exit to Anastaseos street, then turn left at the junction with Anastaseos St and continue up the mountain, *pass 2 cemeteries, when you come to a Y junction take a very sharp left and continue along here for a couple of kilometres until you run out of paved road, we start from there.

 

Hash Cheapskates from the North & South:

 

From Leoforos Mesogeion, take a left (North) / right (South) on Leoforos Kyrprou. (At the intersection, there is a statue of General Papagos)  When you come to a circle, go about 3/4 of the way around onto Ionias. Make an immediate right at the sign for Verde and head uphill with the park on your left. (The road is Leoforos Alexandros Papagos.) When you come to the intersection with a traffic light, that is Odos Anastaseos. Turn right onto Anastaseos. Carry on until you pass under the Immitos Ring Road – carry on as above*.

 

After the circle there is the on inn at Captain Sumo's at 248 Mesogeion (Trapeza Kyprou is downstairs) so just carry on down from Anastaseos until you meet Mesogeion, turn right and then take Eisodos 5 at the Vodafone shop onto the side road, plenty of parking on Sundays.
