Run Pictures……………………………………..

This run met up with the Brisbane hash with a combined meal at the Norfolk Hotel.

There was some instructions  given to the runners and walkers about the chalked and flour marked trail. All runners returned all safe and sound with no complaints.

There was one runner who endeavoured to try the long jump trick over the open water drainage channel. This was a novel way to cool off and wash sweeting hands.

The served meal arrived quickly considering the amount of dinners there were. It was a fair price and tasted good. Bar wine and beer was on tap with speedy service.

7: 25 am. The GM Weekly decided to present himself  as his normal self. There was no Winston Churchill this evening.

Shat and Slab were invited to cool off by sitting  on the ice, down down followed for these gents.

Then it was Two Dogs into the circle with two other pet dogs whom  looked more interesting and stole the show.

Not to be excluded, VD was called into the circle with three other Brisbane runners. Down downs followed.

There was a call for the runners whom were named Peter or Grahame to enter the circle. It was amazing how many there were.

Vistors.  There were two for Germany. Welcome down down was in order.

After some debate on the evening the runners wanted to enjoy their meal in the hotel.

7: 35am.  The GM closed the circle.

This was quick ten minute circle, so thats all folks.  Have you phoned  a hash mate yet? Are you OK mate?

Run 2140…Swollen Colon

Date: 5th November  2018……………………..
Location:Southport ……………………………..
Runners: 39…………………………………………..
Run Pictures……………………………………..

The runners grouped at Southport Tigers Club in well-lit shelters with tables and benches.

8.25pm. Our GM Weekly in the image of Winton Churchill called all to order.
The first down down was taken by Arse Nik. He was proud to show off his newly required hash shirt.
Returning runners.  There were quite a few on this night. That’s good news. Returning   runners were, Blue Card and Slug (Returning from an extended overseas holiday), Derrick, Rug, Circumference and our dearly missed Jigsaw.
The hare.

This was Swollen Colon and Larry. Down down to them.
Run report.  Brutus thought it was a good run with a few missing arrows, but all got back safe and sound.

Nosh report.  KB mentioned that last week Japanese meal was a real novelty that was enjoyed by all. All cheered and agreed on this.  Tonight’s beef burger patties were tasty, topped up with sauce, boiled potato and green peas. There was a touch and go to the BBQ function, as gas bottles were getting low. But all went well.
The POW.

Locating this was a bit confusing as no one was sure who had this phallic symbol. May be it was with Elvis. Fanny Charmer and Sweat Hog got it in the neck and had to endure a down down for the confusion of who had it.   Lucky pricks.
Next in line for a down down was for Swollen Colon and Larry.

Next weeks run. 12th November will be a combined Brisbane Hash at Norfolk Tavern.

The GM had the honour to re- name Derrick. In true tradition and on his knees, the GM with his walking stick, Derrick now became Sky Hook. He was now presented with his own hash T-Shirt.  The circle of hash men shouted choirs of, Shirley, Shirley,  Shirley over and over.
GM had his hands full and was busy.  He asked for a bleeding hand. And he got one!!
Brutus not only lost his mobile phone at the GMs Sunday’s lunch, he did not remember attending! In both hands he carried cans of beer so left little space for his phone.
It is reported that on Sunday Lunch, Swollen Colon and Now Loved decided to cross-dress by swopping their shirts and hats. Then they proceed to engage in a rather secret ritual, thought only to be known to them. They bellied engaged each other like confronting fighting frogs. Puffed out stomach to another puffed out stomach. Maybe possible that they are both thespians.

Booze Master Report.    S- Bends thanks Circumference for his assistance. All payouts from the Melbourne Cup will be paid to participants’ at next weeks run.
Blue Card was encouraged into the circle to entertain us by telling a story.
His skull-adored staff pole was presented to the GM with a packet of “FUCKING STONG COFFE” powder.
Our overseas returning runner Slug, presented a special T-Shirt to the GM.
Circumference whom returned from New Zealand presented the GM with a bottle of RIPA beer. He also mentioned, he went to the local church and was taught a new church hymn. He is keen to teach us how to say the Hymn. It goes like this.

Our Lager which art in barrels and slabs
Hallowed by thy drink
Thy will be drunk, I will be as drunk
At home and as I will be in the tavern

Give us this day your foamy head
And forgive us our spillage
As we forgive those who spill against us

And lead us not into incarceration
But deliver us from hangovers
For thine is the beer, the bitter and the lager.
Baaa Men

Sir Winston Churchill quote of the week.
“Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.”

Christmas cheer and good will to all men is close. Phone your mates. Are you OK mate?

8:45pm.  End of circle.

On On Sec.   FA.

Swollen Colon our Cracker Man, sets off a fine display of fire works to close the evening with a bang, and a shower of sparking bursts of light into the dark sky. Sky Hook was more than pleased to see all this splendour in the sky. He was quite hooked on it.

For years, I have bored my wife about stories and funny incidents that took place at GCH3 lunches! Today I took her to the CGH3 Luncheon to see for herself.

 

Lost for words on this one

Lost for words on this one

She was amazed at what she saw.

Friendship, laughter, fine food, wine and refreshing ales. “What more could a girl ask for was her response”.

On the way home my wife asked  me to pass on her thanks to the Hierarchy of the GCH3 for a fantasic day out.

The only scary bit  was when, on the way home, she asked me if she could go to the next GCH3 Lunch.

I did reply but it fell on deaf eyes as my loving partner had fallen asleep.

Run 2139…KB & Sir Botcho

Location:Southport ……………………………..
Runners: 35…………………………………………..
Run Pictures……………………………………..
This was a warm night even after it rained. If it had not stopped, it could put a bit of a damper on tonight’s run.
Runners were arriving with their Halloween customs in hand.
After a shortened run, a quick and discrete beer, it was off to a secret destination for another drink. Then from there, to a secrete restaurant dinner in Southport.

Our GM Weekly said very few words this evening.
There was a down for Sir Botcho, our hare. The returning and visiting runners will be honored with a down down next week.

After a the quick beer at a local hotel, the ghastly and terrifying troop of hash members struck fear in the streets with their Halloween customs. The patrons in the restaurant certainly turned their heads in surprise.

The night passed quickly with lots of chatter and joviality.

That’s all folks,

Have a fruitful week and phone a fellow hasher. Are you OK mate?

ON ON. Sec.
