Location

A field just outside of Erfurt.

Participants

Plans

Feep and Mampfred agreed on IRC to meet around 7pm.

Expedition

Mampfred

Leaving work a bit earlier, Mampfred quickly changed clothes and went to see his trusted Hash car. The booking was for two hours which should have been plenty to get there, walk to the hash, meet up and head back.

The hash field was easy to find thanks to Google navigation. As Mampfred was early he decided to walk around the field to the edge that was closest to the actual hash. He got there around 6:55 and started waiting for Feep. Mampfred had given Feep his number but unfortunately had no way of contacting him the other way round.

At 7:20 he still hadn't heard anything so he gave up waiting and went into the field. The hash was conveniently only eight meters from a large tire track. He took a screenshot and a stupid non-grin and went on the way back out of the field when ...

... his mobile started ringing and a breathless Feep explained that he underestimated the a hill coming from Erfurt :)

So Mampfred went back out and waited some more and eventually Feep emerged ... on the other side of the field!

After some more talking on the phone both hashers decided to meet at the hash in the field which they then did. Some more photos were taken and at around 8:15 the two hashers went their seperate ways again.

In the meantime Mampfred had extended the car rental by 30 minutes (yay for modern technology) and made it back just in time. Cost for the car in case you're interested: 12,50 € for the time plus ## insert amount here when the bill comes ## for the distance.
