RUN REPORT

Chardonnay’s Yellow & Black Pole Trail
23 April from Maypole Hotel, New Town
Hare: Growler
Run Reporter: Grizzly

Well, that was unexpected.

First there was the seasonally unseasonal weather. There haven’t been many times where we’ve headed out into the darkness with most just rocking a tee-shirt. Even Tarzan’s Grope managed to brave the weather with just a couple of layers.

Then there was the number of Hashers turning up. With the exodus to Interhash well and truly underway, the twenty place settings seemed optimistic. Instead, Growler had to arrange additional seating.

It was also good to have some runners – and Can’t Stop – to follow the Hare’s longer trail, unlike last week when the Hare set a runner’s section that no one followed but I’m not bitter or going to harp on about how sore my knees were or how great that runners’ loop was but no one will ever know. Sigh.

Speaking of runners – I mean, Can’t Stop – Chardonnay’s Mr Biodynamic set off down Risdon Road and soon disappeared from view. When I say ‘disappeared from view’, I mean that he was so broken down that the walkers overtook him and we couldn’t see him because he was behind us.

Eventually he got his body in motion and charged off. Right past an FT. Maximus and Red Dress considered leaving him to it, but he is still one of the runner frat club. Technically.

Heading up the ‘one hill’ that Growler forewarned of, there were many Darth Vader impressions, but after that the trail elevation was less Vader and more Hand Solo.

Unexpectedly we crossed the Brooker into Lutana via Prickit’s favourite pedestrian bridge. (Who am I kidding – Prickit loves them all equally!) Once on the other side there was some concern that we might be in for a second ‘only one hill’, but the Hare was still looking out for us and we straight-lined back to Risdon Road.

Trail crossed back over the Brooker at ground level, but we lost it briefly around one of the altars that Crusha worships at, as he sacrifices cans to the small gods of recycling in return for their 10 cent blessings. By this time most had the smell of a P!ss Stop in their nostrils and headed to where they all knew it would be. Alas, there we some blocked noses or sinusitis, for TAP had to ‘phone a friend’, having arrived with her followers at Growlers‘ house, only to find nothing more liquid than a dripping hose.

Not sure how Spoof ended up there.

The real P!ss Stop was in the little park near K-Mart, and offered a selection straight from nanna’s grog cupboard – sweet sherry, green ginger wine or butterscotch goon bag. (Nanna is a real bitch for a c*ck s*cking cowboy.)

A well thought-out trail from Growler, not at all unexpected from a Hare that consistently sets a proper Hash trail.

Meals came out with Hash names associated with the orders and making life so much easier, but who were Maximum and Mortician? This time no one f*cked up by bringing their own grog into the venue, so YAY for that!

On! On!
