On on!!

**Warning: The following post contains hashing jargon, continue at own risk. Also, please keep in mind, family, that I am an adult and will be rowdy in any city that I should choose. Thank you. :-) **

Being the avid "hashette" that I am, I had to check the Paris Hash House Harriers site just in case my weekend trip should match up with one of their events. And wouldn't you know it...


So here's my first attempt at a Hash Trash.
***
The 687th running of the Paris Hash House Harriers started on quite nicely with the normal
wankers, a few visitors and two virgins (brought by yours truely) at the legendary Bois de Boulogne (if you need to ask why it's legendary, you're probably in good moral shape). Shanghai, Singapore and Burlington were among the cities represented.(Center in the red shirt: the hare, F*cking Fan)(Assorted wankers.)

After a round (maybe 2) of beer, the pack took off at a brisk...walk. Turns out they run the course with a dead hare, so it took a few minutes for those used to live harings to get going. Since I don't know Paris very well, I'll some up the course in a few short words: "Damn, that took a while!" With only one beer stop to quench the thirst, people had to make the best of it, and after a little break (and half in the bag) we started off again.

It was a nice A--A trail. Beautiful weather. And fresh rosé for the red-in-the-face hashers at the end (classy, huh?).

Punishments were handed out, beer drunk (Bravo to Speedy Gonzales for doing a 1 Gulp down-down!) and songs sung. Great times all around.
(Shityona and Barge Pole. I think that we look pretty damn good in our newly purchased hash shirts.)

(Front row from the left: Trojan Condom, Speedy Gonzales, Slack Mac, Virgin Yasmina, F*cking Fan.
Middle row: Just *can't remember* and Just Issac.
Last row: Can't remember, can't remember, can't remember,can't remember, can't remember, ME, Half-Crazy, Virgin Laura. Photo by Barge Pole.)

Now; no scolding for the enormous memory gap in the names. I'm not a professional, so bugger off.

P.S. The on-after was next to this notable landmark.
