The Hash had a weekend planned an hour away from here in the Matra and I joined them for just one day on Saturday. Got there around 9.20am, but we didn't get going until about a couple of hours later. The B&B Nata found was brilliant: comfortable, friendly and very cheap. We walked to Galyateto about 3.5km away. This included some climbs and a few beatiful views. The weather was gorgeous, lovely and sunny, although a bit windy to start with. Once the crowd parked their rear ends in the pub, it was rather difficult to unlodge them. Thankfully Peter (aka Trigamist), who was setting the hash for Sunday morning wanted to leave earlier than the rest and I returned to base with him. Nice, laid back, friendly guy - it was very nice to chat to him and scramble down the steep forest with him. While neither of us had a map we both had a good feel for the lie of the land and the general direction. We got back before the rest of them even though we covered a lot more ground. I drove back in an hour to arrive home at 6pm. Roy had a lazy day, which was good as he was due one.
