- Cuddly Doug - Lalo - Night Stripper - Fucking Fan - Slack Mac - Oddball.
The looooong and hot run took us south through the left bank, south of
the seine river and Notre Dame, a few hours before the streets got jammed
with the madness and frenzy of World Cup revellers. We also crossed the
Jardin du Luxembourg and continued south to finally return north, panting
and begging for a drink. Our FRB of the day was our "Cuddly Doug" (who
could schmooze a rock!) visiting from tropical and exciting Nigeria with an
unfair advantage: where you sometimes have to run fast for your life. He
obviously has had good training.
The perfect refreshment beer stop was at a little corner square with a
cool wading fountain at the intersection of rue Monge and rue des Ecoles.
Splendid location for a nice run with good Hash Views (not as good as last
time we ran in Noisiel, girls, but still good).
After some beer was eventually located, we brought it back and drank it
and it was good !
Our circle took us back into the back alley where we decided to squat
the terrace of a Greek restaurant until the manager arrived and kindly
pushed us out to the side curb.
Down-downs:
Virgin: Just Christy from Toronto, staying in Paris
for 6 months.
Returnees: Cuddly Doug from Nigeria, Hot Pussy,
Gonzo (now in Long Island, NY) and Return to Sender.
Seen arriving as a twosome after the run:
Sharp Shooter and Arrogant Bastard: What were they up to??
Technology on the hash:
Superman, Cuddly Doug and Return To Sender
Baptism: Peter the hare, our pale face and blue eyed
Canadian was baptised Snow Goose. Our ancient
algonquin chiefs would have approved.
The Bouffe Mistress delighted us with inviting fresh salads. And our hare,
Night Stripper, contributed with a homemade, scrumptious and moist chocolate
cake.
The hash was followed by an "on on" at a restaurant on Quai Montebello
On on,
R.T.S.
