Run Report: RUN 933
The eager hashers arrived at Pithy’s home with tales of traffic hold ups, peak hour woes and Ekka horrors. Some I think were forced to partake in “alcoholic calming techniques” to relieve their stress prior to the run starting. However others used the sensational aroma’s wafting from Pitty’s kitchen to calm their nerves.
The Brissy weather was perfect for the run. As 6.30 drew near some eager hashers began grumbling about start times. However Thunderbox pushed the honourable GM to get the “show on the road”.
The runners with eagerness and enthusiasm led the charge into the streets and parklands of Wavel Heights. Arrows and checks were clearly marked. Not really sure what happens when the runners race away but the focus seems to be to on short cutting enough to be back first for the drinks.
Most walkers meticulously followed trail led by Flower, and other experienced trekkers. They trooped along many streets, around bridges, down gullies, across vast wastelands returning safely to the bucket. Some however were observed following Meatlovers who negotiated a few short cuts along the trail.
The pre bucket banter highlighted:
· The fire was very welcoming with Wopa, Blueberry and Music Man resplendent in chair absorbing the ambience
· The comparisons made between Pithhead and Oscars fire making prowess showed Pithead won out this evening.
· Pithead was firmly ensconced in the kitchen and no one could remove him from tampering with the potatoes. He was bemoaning that fact that he left the Public Service after 34 years because the 90% female workforce nagged him, only to find he was still being nagged by the hashers.
· Jake had prime position showing photos of his broken ankle to counter any suggestion he was taking it easy.
· Parasite was trying have all believe he was not out on the run because his navigator made him late by taking him off track on route/root to Pitty’s
· Ned was observed showing his attributes whilst changing “into something more comfortable “ out on the road
· OS, Lamb Chop and Snogs were seen laughing heartily about a past misdemeanour/adventure
· Radar was heard describing his adventures cycling all over Brisbane before he takes off for another 4 week retreat in the north.
· Tail is off to “see the light”or was it off to see the northern lights of the Arctic Circle.
The circlewas hosted by Sir Pissalot, Flower and Coco. It was a bit of a scattered circle but they soon had the bunch under control.
· The hares Pithhead and Lilo were toasted appropriately for great teamwork in setting a good run.
· An assortment of visitors including Fingers from Mens Hash were toasted for coming to the best hash in Brisbane
· Returnees were toasted including Greasy, Radar, Wagga
· Birthdays – Speculate (Henry Nestle) and Ned (Henry Nestle) were toasted both “poxy” and “proxy”
· Jake was charged for breaking records (or was it ankles)
· Ned for having his photo in “The Australian” in full sailing gear.
· Radar for new shoes
· Flower was presented with her lost collar by Wopa
· Wine Wine Wine gave the GM a gift to lighten up his claxton
· Wagga reminded everyone about the 2017 relay and urged the crowd to nominate competitors as Adda and Thunderbox (his top performers) are unable to attend.
