Run #1264 - Wednesday 8 June 2016 | |
 On a sunny and warm early summer evening, a slightly smaller than average pack travelled by tram and car to get to the start of run #1264. Some hashers had time for a beer in the sun before the run and the hare promised real bottled beer for the circle, both throwbacks to the old days for the ancient hashers.ON-OUT was called and the pack scampered off in search of the trail, which first took us in the direction of Troldhaugen, the former home of Edvard Grieg, and ON-ON towards Nordåsvannet. Passing a shop just before they stopped selling beer (yes, you cannot buy beer in shops after 8 PM in Norway), an impromptu drink-stop was declared by the hare. That is to say, Mata Hari and Comes Every Time decided to ignore the golden opportunity and continued running. After a refurbishing stop, the two deaf hashers were found loitering at the next CHECK-AND-WAIT. From there the trail took us on a very meandering route to our 'standard' drink stop at Nesttun. As there was not enough time for a double drink-stop, the hare had us ON-OUT and back on the trail after a short while. A short trail took us to the ON-INN and circle. The evening was rounded off with gin and tonics followed by some excellent nosh washed down with beer in the warm and midgy-free evening. | |
