Celebrating a Hash Legend...

Little did we know that A.S. Gispert, the founder of the Hash House Harriers known as G, was born in Brockley, an area we had been to many times since it borders Camilla and Tristram’s neighborhood. As part of an annual hash in early February, we went past where his house would have been when he was born in 1903.
We couldn’t resist taking a selfie since without G, we would have never met.
The organizer of this Memorial Hash was Mr. X who treated us all to a shot of whisky in G’s honor.
At the bottom of the family’s grave is a stone for G, who was killed in Asia during World War II.
We enjoyed an impromptu beer stop at Brockley Brewery Taproom.
