[Members] Re: LSH3: This Week's Run - To Come or Not to Come

Hi Lakesiders and visitors, I have dearly wanted to have a party to celebrate Cooch’s and my 20th wedding anniversary. As the actual date is a hash night and the following Saturday is bike hash winery tour, it seemed the easiest and most fun thing to do was to set the run from home, setting up the back yard in fairy lights, and replicating our wedding night party with 3kg beef rendang, pate and a bunch of hashers. Alas, now with two days to go and the smell of rendang slow cooking in the kitchen etc, and COVID19 on everybody’s lips, I’m feeling a little responsible and reputationally afraid to go ahead. But if the hash is cancelled this week due to COVID19, it will be cancelled for about the next few months or so. That hasn’t happened to hash since the second world war. So this is what’s gonna happen for this week’s hash run: 1. I’ll be setting the run around the streets because I don’t have any flour and neither does Coles. It will be set in chalk wherever there is footpath. 2. The run will start from our home, 115 Buckingham Street, Richmond. However, if more people than social distancing (or whatever that term is) allows in our back yard and garage, we will move to a nearby park for the on on where we can spread out. 3. As I am nearly out of toilet rolls (except for the 6 that T1 got from a friend which I have to pay back asap), PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN DUNNY ROLL in case you need to use the toilet. Of course you can take it home with you! 4. Please bring your own hand sanitizer too. 5. Please BRING YOUR OWN DRINKING VESSEL, and don’t share it. 6. Be prepared for something a little different – I don’t know what. 7. RSVP: If you are definitely *not attending*, please let me know (if you haven’t already). I have cooked the normal amount of rendang (leftovers can be distributed to the sick) but I might leave the rice-cooking until I know how many are around. 8. And most importantly, PLEASE DON’T COME IF YOU’VE RETURNED FROM OVERSEAS IN THE LAST 2 WEEKS, or HAVE A COLD OR FLU SYMPTOMS; 9. and heed all the other government warnings. I do hope we can all still gather and have fun and frivolity. It’s gonna be a frightfully depressing few months if we can’t run the hash together!!! And in that vein, if you’d like to come dressed for a wedding party, please do so.
