Run Report from The Hash – “Stig”
About 28hounds gathered at the back of Fanny Charmer’s house during intermittent rain. Following a petty argument about whether this was Florida Gardens or Broadbeach Waters between Ferret and Flasher, at 6:15 PM we were told that the run previously set was washed out. But an enthusiastic and smiling FC stated that he had just relayed most of the trail. This news somewhat disappointed our RA Miscarriage, who had just arrived in splendid executive work clothes; long-sleeve business shirt, long trousers and his trademark size 19 leather shoes. He apparently had a plan B, the Postman’s Run, with sections of the trail in 5 sealed envelopes. The envelopes were not used and we all set out on FC’s trail.
There were very few arrows at the start which lead to some consternation, but most knew it must eventually lead to Monarco Street, the only option out of Florida Gardens. There was a check there and whilst Rug lead a team west along Monaco, Botcho & BB headed East. It was east and following another easy check near GC highway, the trail lead back and through Cascade Gardens. It was then a long slog, without further checks, south and around the Conference Centre through to Broadbeach Mall, where heavy rain ensured. Aussie, Botcho and BB got to the Oasis complex and from there the trail was washed out. Gone cold; dead cold.
After a regroup of sorts, waiting for Rectum and Caustic (who seemed to have got seriously lost somewhere) to catch up, the FRBs headed back along Surf Parade, the most obvious and quickest route home. They got back in just over 45 mins. So although the rain caused some drama, it was a good workout.
STIG REPORT ENDS!
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Well what a week It was. First of all we thought the GM travelling under a false passport had been arrested on a Jetstar flight into Bali after banging on the cockpit door and causing a real ruckus. It turns out it wasn’t him after all but the person in the seat next to him trying to seek sanctuary in the cockpit.
Once again Sir Black Stump became the Minister for everything Hash Cash and acting GM. Sir Rabbit when asked to comment on the run said he got lost in Cascade Gardens with Madam Latrine. As it was a virgin run for Fanny Charmer he said a score of 7.2 would be right. The as yet unnamed Jimmy said he had lost the arrows after a while and wasn’t too concerned as he ended up in the Broadbeach Mall where there was plenty of eye candy to distract him and give him a second wind. Not wanting to be negative he outbid rabbit and gave it a 7.5.
Moonbeams got a special mention for his 75th birthday and his little soirée at the Malaysian Menu restaurant on Friday night. Kitchen Bitch was a no-show as was Show Pony while Truck Tyres said he wasn’t coming and showed up as he had read it on Facebook and thought he would crash the party.
A special thank you to those who helped out on the Anzac Day bike ride particularly rectum who while not a member of the hierarchy provided a tasty potato salad and circumference organised the chickens. 56 people turned out for the bike ride and all enjoyed a ride all the way to Burleigh and all the way back. Sir Rabbit rode his bike down from his home and gave Blackie his backpack to take home. Blackie stored it in the shed and a couple of days later Helen asked him who belonged to the interesting videos in the backpack?
Blackie has a new serial pest Lurch who was cited for trying to do a deal with KB on the basis that if he supplied him with six chickens could KB give him 12 free eggs a week as a trade. This seemed fair when most of the chicken feed was coming from the Hash members anyway.
The RA jumped into the circle in fine form except for the fact he has one hand strapped up after some recent surgery for an undisclosed activity with the hand. First out was Iceman for desecrating a virgin Hashers premises and giving the Gold Coast Hash and undeservedly poor reputation by taking a p at the front gate just as the runners were setting off.
The RA has lost his position as having the largest feet in the Hash by the arrival of Ball Point. On a length for height basis I think our RA comes out miles in front.
Show Pony rated a special mention for being the best dressed bike rider at the bike ride on Anzac Day even though he only went 50 m and decided to give his bike to his son.
Ballpoint entered the circle to present the coveted POW award for the week. He then proceeded to rabbit on for about 15 minutes about the gourmet sausage meal presented by the five Sirs. Finally as a few of us were starting to nod off BP gave the award to Sir Black Stump for holding the budget purse strings too tight and not allowing his fellow Sirs to offer a proper gourmet meal.
Next week’s run will be set by Swindler from his Rectum Inspired Renaissance waterfront mansion on Stanhill Drive Chevron Island directly on the opposite side of the river to the head office of Shat House Tours. Ballpoint you won’t want to miss this as I think the word gourmet will come to mind on the night.
FINALLY……
BALLPOINT YOUR WORK IS DONE YOU CAN NOW RETURN TO THE GOBI DESERT AND THE JUSTICE OF MONGOLIA
END OF CIRCLE.

Nature is unleashing all of its destructive fury.
THE TEST:
Suddenly you see a man in the water.
He is fighting for his life, trying not to be taken down with the debris.

Somehow the man looks familiar.
You suddenly realize who it is.
It’s Barack Obama!
At the same time you notice that the raging waters are about to take him under forever.
