Chardonnay’s Walk The Plank Trail – R*n 1453
19 January 2025 from Customs House Hotel
Hares: Joint Masters Arsecutter and Luv Shack
Run Reporter: Sonar

Arrr me hearties.

We all gathered at Customs House dressed nautically themed for wee drinks before a short stroll around Parliament Gardens, where we were given our run rations. Clearfell dropped his cup, but wasn’t keen to pick it up because sailor boy Dyke was right behind.

From there it was straight to our venue – a little red boat that reminded me of the one I have in my bath. [It must be a big bath!]

Everyone managed to walk the plank without falling in and we set sail upon the mighty Derwent for a lap around the harbour. First port of call for most seemed to be the ‘poop deck’, offloading the two-for-one happy hour drinks at the Customs.

The cruise included a three-course meal, which was managed by the Arsecutter & Luv Shack because Hashers can never remember what they ordered. That’s why I leave my ordering until the last minute!

The outgoing Lips conducted a circle on the top deck [not on TopDek…] before the the moment most were dreading – the announcement of the new committee. Some were happy, some were NOT SO FKN HAPPY.

Overall, a great night had by all.

on on Sonar (grrrr)

DOWN DOWNS

Presiding Outgoing Lips: Slippery Nipple & Smallgoods

• Nancy Boy For lost property.. his wallet!
• Arsecutter & Luv Shack – The Hares
• The Outgoing Cummittee… GM Soft Cock; JMs Arsecutter & Luv Shack; Lips Smallgoods & Slippery Nipple; Cash Snack Bar, Hops Hands On & Brazilian, Trailmaster Cumonion, On Sec Wee Bev & RA Gingernuts. Just because!
• Dyke – For forgetting to order his meal. Luckily for him Luv Shack is a kindly soul and phoned him to get his order.. otherwise he would have been salivating watching everyone else eat!
• Spoof. For creating a rumpus unnecessarily. Couldn’t find his meal?  Had some folks searching for it .. and threatened others with his cutlas…Where was it? It was assumed lost until he returned to his seat and found it had been there all the time!
• Buddha. Smallgoods recalled a joke about three dogs going to the vet… two were getting their balls removed.. the other, a bullmastiff was getting his nails clipped after a torrid evening with his female owner. Smallgoods appeared to be likening Buddha to that same bullmastiff… given he had recently a beauty salon for a pedicure! 

Skols from the floor:

• Growler -> Snack Bar & Slippery For their polarized view of incumming President of the USA! Growler presented Slippery with champagne, to drink on inauguration day, and Snack Bar with a roll of Donald Trump toilet paper so he can wipe his arse with him!
• Luv Shack -> Sonar. AKA Top Gun! Ordered food at the last minute… 1 minute to midnight on 12^th January only Five minutes after the food order had been placed to the boat!
• Ginger Nuts -> C*n’t Stop for being (wearing) the biggest heel in the room!
• Luv Shack – Celebrating a Millstone! 150 hash r*ns!

The JMs then asked volunteer Hashers to draw names from a golden hat and announced the unfortunate souls ‘elected’ to the Chardonnay Mismanagement the next year.

• TicToc drew Morticia for Trailmaster
• Tarzan’s Grope -> Sonar – Hash Cash
• Prikit -> ClearFell – Hash Hops
• Clearfell ->  Herr Flick – Grand Master
