The CHARDONNAY BUGLE
Volume 27 Issue 53
Chardonnay’s Evening After Run
1 January from Aberdeen Street Playground
Hare: Chris Miss
Run Reporter: Xena
A small but quality group of Hashers turned up for what was undoubtedly the run of the year so far on New Year’s Day. Accidentally volunteering as Hare for two weeks in a row, Chris Miss declared this a no trail, free everything run including the free form interpretation that occurred when trying to work out directions set by the dice. Equipped with a dice each, the runners set off to the right and the walkers off to the left. Maximus was a bit disturbed to end up with the more right than the Republicans dice, which ended up taking him, Chris Miss and Wee Bev on a series of right hand turns over the domain to the botanic gardens and back up through Legacy Park.
Keeping on theme, the walkers ended up with the more left than the Greens dice, executing a series of left hand turns through the Glebe, across the bridge over the Brooker (where In The Raw tossed the dice over the edge), through the serial killer underpass to the fountain and back to the University rose garden. From here, Herr Flick and In The Raw used a dice tossing technique that was more like a try than a toss, which zig zagged the pack through the rose garden and in a general left direction back to the Aberdeen Street playground.
Back at the On Home it was evident who could be bothered preparing food versus those who couldn’t. Special mention goes to Nancy Boy for reheating potato cakes and dim sims on the BBQ, while gourmet grub of the night was a toss-up between Growler’s homemade zucchini slice and home-grown salad, and Flick and Bev’s wagyu burgers. A lively lip session followed, where every Hasher got a skol, which was a great way to finish up the inaugural run of 2026.
On On, Xena (in what is hopefully my last run report for a while!)
DOWN DOWNS
Lips: Nancy Boy and Spoof
- Chris Miss: the Hare
- Grizzly: Trained Leo to knock Spoof off his feet.
- Maximus: Took his car keys with him on the run leaving his long-suffering wife tired and starving while he cut laps of the playground to get his Strava up to 5km.
- Wee Bev: Is studying hard for her Australian citizenship test but will lose points for doing the un-Australian thing of taking over the BBQ cooking from Herr Flick.
- In The Raw: For throwing the dice off the bridge and risking a 12 car pile-up on the Brooker Highway.
- Crusha: For bringing gourmet food to Hash in the form of wood smoked mussels from New Zealand.
- Xena and Lone Arranger: For having an unscheduled p*ss stop on trail and holding up the walkers.
- Grizzly: For creating Legacy Park’s version of the Exxon Valdez oil disaster on Christmas Day with a leaking BBQ.
- Growler: For entertaining the punters at the Taste of Summer with her brazilian.
- Skols from the floor:
- Jack Sh*t to Twinkletoes: Awarded Twinkletoes her 100 run whistle from 2012.
- Chris Miss to Lone Arranger: LA was Hash Cash in 2015 and found in amongst the receipts was a vet bill for a dog vaccination and some estimates for dental work.
- Maximus to Chris Miss: Chris Miss must be affiliated with the far right after her dice throwing on trail.
- Jack Sh*t to Herr Flick: Flick should either be arrested or deported for a picture of him doing a dubious salute back in 2005.
- Twinkletoes to Dyke: Sent Twinkletoes some video of the amazing scenery while out on a bushwalk, which was mostly of his toes, some rocks and the inside of his pocket.

A note from Pee Wee: Nash Hash 2027 Ballina NSW
🚐🏕️🚐🏕️🚐🏕️🚐🏕️🚐🏕️
Nash Hash seems a long way off, but there seems there are a good number of Tassie Hashers from all clubs who are joining the ‘Gray Nomads’ brigade and have camper homes, caravans, camper trailers etc.
My thoughts are, if enough are interested to make up a convoy to depart all on the same ferry, slowly travel to Ballina and Hash on the way. Route and stopovers to be decided by the group. All staying in the same caravan park in Ballina.
The reason for such an early notice is to book ferry places and any caravan parks on the way. Short notice bookings on the ferry is nigh impossible.
All interested, contact Pee Wee (the short one) on 0478 834 716 or ozziepeewee@gmail.com
