Hash meeting and Coroncircle #20

We've got to hash Coronacircle number 20 and it's time to think about how we might restart hashing on a Sunday.

With gyms reopening and gatherings of up to 30 now allowed (by law), some hashes across the country have been running for a couple of months now.

After a discussion last week, it was suggested that we might restart in August, but the hash mismanagement would welcome everyone's opinion.

Note that government guidance
e.g. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/coronavirus-outbreak-faqs-what-you-can-and-cant-do
is not the same as the law
e.g. https://www.met.police.uk/advice/advice-and-information/c19/coronavirus-covid-19/coronavirus-social-distancing-rules-england/.  

This means that we might want to set our own guidance specific to our hash that essentially replaces the broad-brush governmental advice, and consider writing risk assessments that everyone 'signs up to'. This might include keeping to small running pods, maintain distancing, bring own beer & sweets, signing in to each hash etc. 

There is also the issue of public perception that we need to consider, because while the law is clear, we may open ourselves up for criticism. We could minimise this by careful choice of venues.

Join tomorrow - Sunday - 11.05
