When September ends . . . again . . .
Coincidentally, I crashed into a hash group on my walk home two nights ago. I saw the chalk marks and piles of flour, and heard their shouts and bugles long before we collided of course, but there they were, terrorising a very respectable neighbourhood that I (and they) deign to venture through.

I have to say, I wasn't all that inspired by them. It looked to be a tough run, and the flabbies at the back were being flogged mercilessly by what looked like a drill sergeant with an acid tongue. I presume they were having fun, but a couple of them looked on the verge of being sick. And a few of the residents looked on hte verge of calling the police, although I think even the worst of the hashers could have outrun your average porky pig without too much trouble.

I expected trouble as I ducked and weaved through the group (I now realise how terribly bad runners smell) but they clearly recognised a fellow runner (at least in spirit) and I only got tackled to the ground twice, had three flour bombs and half a pint of lager thrown at me and chundered on once*...

But I felt really, really sorry for the girl wearing chain mail and very nearly in tears. Even the sweeper had given up on her.

Tough sport, this hashing.
