Run 1947, Hare Rowdy, from his place in Victoria Avenue.
The scribe was too busy drinking Collingwood beer from Collingwood beer cans to take any notes last night. But it can be reported that Sillic was definitely concussed from his glassing incident the week before. Not because of his nonsensical conversation, but due to the fact that he actually took a Collingwood beer can from the drink stop. Complained about the packaging, but drank the bloody thing. We will see what next week brings.
The hare wandered back from placing the drink stop at 1810 hrs to find the Bill already set up in the back yard. Others managed to wander down the wrong driveway, but by 1845 the Grand Master gained the attention of the pack. 14 runners set off, with a larger contingent of walkers, who took a short cut to the Old Cemetery gates then followed trail through the tombstones, past the Eureka Diggers memorial, across Burnbank to the lake, then off to the drinkstop at the Drummond St Nth playground. Runners followed a longer trail, in fairly persistent drizzle, and Shafted followed his own nose but, Snag-like, ended up at the drink stop in time for refreshments.
Fascinator took charge, determined to not forget a single thing, and was doing well until he tried to improvise a song. Bent Nose quickly reminded him of the error of his ways.
Screw Shafted took centre stage and showed all how it should be done. Channelling Benny Hill and Ernie the Milkman:
"Now Rowdy liked a house wife, lets call her Mrs X,
Who its fair to say had bags for play and was very fond of sex
They say she was too much for him, she was horny, proud and cheek
But Rowdy took her temperature....three times every week!"
And so it continued. Very funny. S H I T T Y T R A I L
Palindromic Runs, Exit 101, Bitch Face 67 (just two short of 69, Fascinator is practising his technique already), Teflon 569. Spence sergeanted in his usual manner, keeping the circle amused and under control. Glider produced a copy of the weekend Australian for his usual Zinger for Bad Hair Day, and on and on it went.
The meal was well attended and lubricated at the top Eureka, with SS very happy to announce as it happened the birth of a much anticipated grandchild. Well done to all.
Next weeks run is from Bent and BP's place in Pleasant St Sth, on after Aroma of India, Sturt St., opposite G C's.
