It was a new and modern way of setting a Hash. I'm not sure if it was meant to be like that, and even less sure if anybody actually understood it, and for that matter took part.
I am told, that is because I was amongst those who did not find and understand the trail.... it had been set digitally. How is that? Well
Stevie Blunder was the Hare and it was a live run...the Hashers probably should have thought when they gave him such a head start - but instead they chatted outside the restaurant for a good ten minutes allowing Stevie to leave more false trails than you could ever imagine!
