Hello ONH3
Greetings from the Dubai Patriotic Swedes, and your fellow veteran
hashers Scandihooligan and Lurpak.
We are glad that you are still keeping up the Santa Lucia tradition
as we try to introduce it around the world, Our first stop was
Istanbul. Dubai Desert hashers are all excited and looking forwad to
yet another great run in honour of santa Lucia this coming Sunday.
Desire, Scandi has been practicing to make Mammas meat balls but in
vain. So it will be a Kenyan Swedish Santa Lucia feast.
Well I hope you all have a great run and we are very much looking
forward to see you all again on our next visit which is the 19th of
Dec.
Gud Jul!( Merry xmas)
