Sandygate Inn Report (grateful thanks for the release of this article from greathashgod)

A great time had by the Cruisedog and handler
tonight at Sandygate. A virgin lay - I think - by Eager Beaver and Rampant Rabbit and a little classic, from what we saw of it. Just when the hash looked in trouble (longs and shorts had cleverly melded - longs across the fields and shorts from across the river) and were wandering about searching for clues ... a light appeared in the distance and one of the hares called out: "On on this way!" It was at this point that the Cruisedog had a slight asthma attack and we had to stop (Cruisedog already having had his 3 mile walk earlier as I couldn't convince him that we really were going out later) ... we were joined by Big Issue, Piltdown Man and Georgie P Orgy and decided that a slight adjustment was needed in our meanderings ... our numbers were swelled by Able Semen and Bin Laden as we headed for a suitable river crossing. More 'stragglers' swelled our merry throng - Teapot, Captain Birdseye and Seagull and soon we had become a Mini-Me Hash in our own right! Approaching the Toll House, we looked back to see the pack closing in. About 55 minutes, I reckon and a fine trail, Eager and Rampant.

For the first time EVER, we arrived home (Cruisedog Towers) early and stone cold sober, Sally. The first tiny step towards attaining running fitness after such a long time in the doldrums with, illness, injury, booze and apathy being the culprits.
