RUN REPORT

Chardonnay’s Always Was Always Will Be Soft Opening
27 January from Montagu Bay Reserve
Hare: Chris Miss
Run Reporter: Morticia

As is tradition, following the AGPU is the Soft Opening Trail from Montagu Bay Reserve.  Chris Miss volunteered to get the ball rolling by setting the first run, whilst the new committee was finding its feet and giving the new Trailmaster Arsecutter some breathing space prior to doing the rounds of harassment. An ongoing task for the next twelve months.

It was perfect weather — a balmy 21 degrees — giving the Eastern shore-ites another chance to crow about their weather, but no overcoat to discard on this occasion.

Upon arrival at the barbecue area we found we didn’t have it to ourselves, with a family well installed and not looking like they were leaving any time soon.  Hashers don’t like having to share their space!

A short delay at first with the EFT machine not working and having to be programmed for the new Hash Cash committee. However with a phone call to Maximus and some ‘jigging’ by IT Guru Griz it was up and running and we were back in business.

Trail instructions were given out and we headed off in the direction of Montagu Bay Primary school, under the bridge and along the panoramic river track. Trail then followed up some steps into Marana Avenue and onto Chatsworth Street, along Topham and Yolla Streets to an overpass crossing the East Derwent Highway. 

We found ourselves in some light bush/scrub area below Rose Bay High. Trail led us onto the walking track beside the Tasman Highway and then over another overpass bringing us back into the streets below the Rosny Hill Reserve. The tailenders looked up at the hill with a sigh and then at the arrows ahead and sure enough it was up up up onto the circle track.

Several check points and FTs were encountered on the trail but  didn’t seem to keep the group together. By this time the group was well spread out with the front walkers totally out of sight with just the odd “on on” could be heard in the distance.

Several Hashers lost trail and returned to the barbecue area, however a phone call to locate the PS saw Morticia, Spoof and Ninja Nuisance hitch a ride with Lone Arranger to not miss out on some bubbly, cider, beer and nibbles.

Back at the barbecue area we finally had it to ourselves and the usual victuals, skols and camaraderie ensued.  Hats off to the new Lips — Hands On and Uber — they did an excellent job.  Arsecutter looked very much at home in his role as the new Trailmaster walking around with his calendar.

Here’s to another successful and fun-filled Hash year.

DOWN DOWNS

Lips: Hands On & Uber

• Chris Miss: the Hare. P!ss stop, no hills (?) and preferential treatment of the GM.
• Scary Eyeball, Spoof, Bart, Morticia and Lone Arranger: auto-Hashing to the PS.
• TwinkleToes: canine delinquency. Spoof spilled Buddha’s beer, but before he could recover it Randell claimed it as his.
• Bart, Grassroots & Arsecutter: can’t remembers.
• Hands On: Milestone 900 runs!

• Spoof: Provided Morticia with a ride to Hash, but she appeared to be walking somewhat bow-legged. What had they been up to?
• Snack Bar: The search for the missing Hash Horn continued. Found behind a curtain.Growler: Turned up with a yellow stain on her face, which turned out to be bowl marker. Now a professional lawn bowler having won tournament cash.
• In The Raw: Farted at the p!ss stop then blamed the sewerage works.
• Can’t Stop: New ‘Honka’ shoes.
• Dyke (as proxy for Crusha): Looking after Brazilian and Clearfell’s menagerie, but left the stable door open. (Don’t worry Brazilian – it was his fly.)

Skols from the floor

• Buddha -> Grassroots: Pushed a cyclist over. Grassroots claimed that he fell because he was mesmerised by her behind.
• Jack Shit -> Wee Bev and Chris Miss: Wee Bev now a ‘true blue’ Aussie, but Chris Miss is a British citizen!
• ITR -> Scary Eyeball: Late decision to attend High Noon weekend away, but has to sleep in her car. As there are no public toilets, he will arrange a roster of Hashers’ vans for her to poo in.
• TwinkleToes -> Cumonion: Trying to get her leg over construction fencing instead of walking around like everyone else.
• Topdek, Lone Arranger and Arsecutter: Choosing to go camping instead of attending the AGPU.
• Grizzly -> Growler: Isn’t wearing her glasses so can’t see that the iPhone is warning her to clean the camera lens.
• Jack Shit -> Hands On & Uber: Great start to their year as Lips.
