A COUPLE OF RUN REPORTS

The sun was shining and the humidity was higher than the water level on the Titanic. HJ was cooking food, cleaning the house, setting up tables while Anything was lying in bed nursing a sore back. Yes it was HJ’s Birthday Run. Anything was supposed to set the trail but the best he could do was write the ON ON with a question mark and the big question was – “Who is going to set the run??????”.    Lo and behold, Thunder saved the day and at 6.20 took off to set the run. 10 minutes later the pack assembled outside HJ and Anything’s place while HJ spun a pile of bullshit about how much she knew about the run.( Appropriate for someone wearing the Clown Pants).    33 hashers turned up to help celebrate the occasion and Mandurah almost outnumbered Rocky City. There were also two hashers from Bunbury and two new runners. (Now what were their names??? – Sorry guys, at my age the memory isn’t so good).       It was a typical Thunder run – lots of checks, false trails, great scenery, swim leg sex and debauchery and the pack being kept together.      In the circle, the Grim Reaper made a return as guest RA keeping control with his wooden snake. (Actually he needs to learn the difference between a python and a cobra ). A great job Franga. Your costume department must occupy most of your house.   Butt finally reached his 50th run after 10 years and as hash flash he forgot to take photos and when he did, his battery went flat. (the one in the camera ) To the rescue came Whoremoan with the back-up camera. Butt was so overwhelmed at reaching 50 runs, he took most of the photos of himself.   

 Red Light reached 150 runs Long Time No Seers were Carefree and Whisper (who happen to be HJ and Anything’s neighbours) and also Lightning. Lots of charges and jokes and heaps of raffle prizes including all HJ’s plants. (Now who put them in the raffle??? – It had to be someone from Mandurah). The Clown Pants were returned to HJ. (What a nice club Birthday Present). Then onto a great spread of food with beef, rolls and salad followed by a variety of sweets including cakes and ice cream. A great night as usual with an excellent run. (Thanks Thunder). ON ON to a huge week of preamble runs, Red Dress Run, Bunny Run etc and of course Perth Interhash. For all those going, have a great time and make sure you catch the Rocky City skit.  And finally a big “Happy Birthday” to HJ

It was 5.00pm on Tuesday 5th February . The skies were dark with black clouds and the heavens opened up to a heavy downpour of rain accompanied by Thunder and Lightning. (Actually LIGHTNING was at home and THUNDER was car-pooling with the GM).  The scene was set for a very wet Hash Run but as we all arrived at COOKIE’S, ‘Lo and Behold’, our RA MOPARSE did his usual great job and applied divine intervention. The rain stopped, the floods subsided, the Red Sea parted and there was no further rain throughout the evening. There were almost 30 hashers on a warm and humid night. BUTT had a swollen eye and looked as though he had done a couple of rounds with Mike Tyson but the image was ruined when he informed us that he had a fight with a bee. (I like the Mike Tyson story better).  FLUTTA came out in sympathy with BUTT by turning up with a bandaged leg. With the GM having a sore knee and SNOWHITE having a pulled muscle it seemed as though our club was turning into ‘Rocky City – The Touchy Feely Geriatrics Club’   QUACK and THUNDER had their horns at the ready and the ON ON was called. We set off around the streets of Gosnells, under bridges and through parks and bush. By all reports, TEE PEE, FRANGA and THUMBELLINA got as far as the pub. THUMBELLINA wasn’t allowed in because she looked under age and didn’t have any ID --- or was it because she was wearing hash gear????  BUTT shocked everybody by running and at one stage was leading the pack – (perhaps he is in training for a rematch with Mike Tyson).  Eventually we all arrived at COOKIE’S to various nibbles (no --- the harriets were not on the menu).  The circle was called but this week without our usual time caller TINY TIM.   KOOWALA was in fine form as usual stirring up the circle and trying to get down downs to quench her thirst.  QUACK made a reference to DICKIE’S ‘blind mullet. (I don’t think he was going to ‘get lucky’ that night).
