Run 1952 Daylight Savings Run 7 October , 2019
Hare Rowdy from the Nuggetty Dam
We have a BBQ!!!
After all the angst following the brazen theft of the Hash Troop Carrier and BBQ from under Shafted's nose earlier this year, The Sovereign Hash displayed all of its ingenuity and calm co-operation to deliver on time a BBQ for the Daylight Savings Bush Summer Runs.
Bent and BP supplied the sausage cooker, immaculately clean as expected. It looked like it had never been used, such was its pristine state. GM Fascinator supplied the transport in the form of a reinvented garden maintenance trailer with a slot perfectly sized for the BBQ. Normal and SS supplied the cooking skills to turn out 96 perfectly heated snags, with onions, and Glider lit the bonfire under the supervision of a strangely responsible Pus Bucket who prevented the fire from getting out of control while the hash were running and walking through the Aussie Bush on a mild but dry October evening.
The run made use of the single track and fire trails to wind south initially, across the bitumen to head up the steepish slope to Glen Park Road, then meandering north across the bitumen towards the Dam, with a little bush bashing and shaft avoiding at the end. The drink stop back at the bonfire kept all lubricated and talkin' footy.
Eventually GM Fascinator scaled his podium to announce welcomes back to Bent Nose, BP, Nutcracker, Mastabait, Rowdy and Half a Bar. (Give us an AAA...)
(there was a prolonged lull in proceeding while all commented on the tropical flavoured Aldi mid strength beer supplied by the Grog Master)
Tommy had to re drink his flavoured beer as a punishment for starting too early. (Ya Stupid)
Screw Shafted was eventually invited to participate, which he did in a positive manner. Thanked the RA (Nummy) for her magnificent job with the weather, commended Snag for his bonfire monitoring, lusted after the basalt Rocks from the Western Plains, then drooled over the quartz reef around and over which the run was set. Lauded the run then lamented the absence of Dr Death, who was to help with the song;
A Message to You, Rowdy...
Stop your messin' around,
Got to think of ya future, etc (SHITTY TRAIL)
Mountie managed to fit Normal, BP (born in 1952), Nummy (for being of coloured heritage), and Pus Bucket's Aunty Joan Sutherland in with Mrs Universe for the 1952 charges. (She's all right..)
Charges from Before the Run. Glider charged the GM for all the shit left behind in Learmonth after last week's run. Fascinator was called to account for his flat battery this evening, D&D for possibly supplying the said battery. Pus Bucket for his brilliant bonfire. Bitch Face for the Aldi Beer, and for being easy to pick up. (ya stupid)
Donuts and Squizzy had a special charge due to their dogs fighting on the run (? a bitch fight),- The dogs fought, and Squizzy lost.
Dumb and Dumber and Rowdy had a birthday charge, and I forgot the rest.
Most managed to leave before the rain came to douse the bonfire. All in all a good night.
Next week's run is the Pink Tie Run, bus from the North Britain at 6 30 pm, $40, with a Buy your drinks option at the destination, which is in a town which begins with C. (Cairns, Cairo, Creswick, Clunes, Castlemaine, Cressy, Cape Town.........who knows?)
