Wow, what a turnout this week. There was a long list of Welcomes Backs that went to FOP, Her Vagesty, Spencer Hocking, Faucet, Riley, Cinderella, Dim Wit, Deep Heat and Rowena. Sniffy runs were then awarded to Pauline on 434, Nutcracker of 393, Big Dog on 242 and Cat Flaps on 11. A late addition was Bent Nose on 1551.
Mountie then stepped up to screw me! It was difficult to scribe this bit as I was out the front but there was mention of sheep, since all the streets in this area are named after types of sheep, and something about the lord is our shepherd. Mountie then recited some sections of the bible, that related more to Mountie than to me, so this got a few laughs.
NBCL was charged for ruining the Hash cash float by taking cash for the Miti Golf weekend, but then it was revealed that it was actually D&C, who paid this week with a $100, so she was charged too. We were reminded that Hash Cash works for tax department, so we should be careful when splashing cash around.
NBCL and Dim Wit began with a few jokes. Why did the chicken go to a fitness centre? - To work on her pecs. What’s the difference between Southern Cross station and a breast augmented lobster? – One is a busty crustacean, and the other is a crusty bus station. Lois then charged Mountie for a joke relating to hand grip while golfing and then Mountie charged Nutcracker for a wayward drive that hit and downed another golfer, the punchline was that it was a broken thumb, not penis, so rubbing it was not really necessary. Pink Bits then charged Disco, who went missing at her recent party, thankfully there was no shit in the fridge this time, but he was found touching things in IC’s room. Riley was then charged for his birthday and despite a few calls for other upcoming birthdays during the next week, they were delayed to our next run. Teflon then charged IC and Cinderella, because Wagga beat the Reds with a 137 to nil score. Precious was then charged for not finding a fill in scribe, as I had the tricky task of scribing my own run. There were no volunteers to help, so it’s just me, trying to make sense of it all. There was then mention of my previous neighbour who is now a convicted sex offender. Precious played horn with him, but then Precious mentioned that he was a piano teacher, who actually taught him where to put his fingers. Mountie then charged me for asking on trail why she hadn’t read my blog, but she claims she’d been distracted by Boner’s post. Boner was then charged for revealing his chin. IC then charged the GM for missing the virgin hasher, Boner is like a new man, now that we can see his chin. Pink Bits then charged Spartacus, who was the only bar fly this week, until we had some late arrivals, Boner and Deep Heat scored a drink here. Mrs D then charged Jus Cum and me, we started the run about 20 min after the pack, as I was ordering our dinner, I caught the pack at the last halt, like an elite athlete, but Jus Cum gave up and joined the walkers. Speaking of walkers, I gave the map to Nummy, but I believe she gave it to Lois. Who was in charge of the walkers? Pauline then stepped up to reveal a special penis shaped glass that he’d found during some recent cleaning up. The story was that it was ordered from a glass blowing factory in Hokitika, NZ. Once it was freshly blown, it was collected by Lois’s Mum and shipped to Australia. Precious then filled the glass dick and sculled. The Richmond supporters then scored the final charge.
Next weeks run was announced to be Mountie’s run which was said to be from the Tennis Courts in Creswick and we were asked to bring a log. This has now been amended to Mount Xavier Golf Club in Ballarat East. The bar will be open and we are reminded to bring a torch.
The following week is our Christmas in July Red Dress run. Stay tuned for more info….

RUN 2262 – Shafted – Grapes Hotel on Grant St – Monday 30th June 2025 Heavy’s 10th Anniversary Memorial Run
Welcomes backs this week went to all the Vietnam peeps, Pebbles, GILF, Fascinator, Kat Flaps, Pebbles, Boner and Square Pants. Sniffy runs that were notable were GILF on 474 and People Pleaser on 13.
This week we were graced with the return of Mountie, who then stepped up to screw the run. She mentioned that we passed by many notable landmarks on this trail. These included the Eureka flag at Bakery Hill, Heavy’s house (where we sang swing low to Clark), the on after site at the Old Colonists club and the drink stop at the back of Her Majesty’s Theatre, that Heavy never made it to and we then had our drink stop at the last known site of Heavy in the gardens at SMB. Of course, there was a very well stocked drink stop of Fosters beers. The church of COOCH salutes Heavy.
Our sergeant NBCL began with a few jokes from Vietnam and then Lois was charged for giving her daughter the Hash Heavy T-shirt to wear, if you’ve seen it, you’ll know. She wore it for a run at Vic Park but then went to the chemist without realising what was on it. Half-a-bar returned from the run in a helmet, but it was Teflon who probably needed it, as he took a tumble on trail and Bent Nose was worried that he may have hit his head. At the point, it was noted that Square Pants was missing (he returned later), we were concerned that we went for a run with 2 Fosters, but only 1 came back….again! Rowdy then charged Mountie, as it was the first time in 32 years as a Dr, that he saved someone’s life, stopping her from stepping in front of a car on trail. Rowdy’s retirement was recognised and it was clarified that he could no longer write prescriptions. Those patients of Dr Rowdy are believed to have received messages of the 5 Dr’s that are replacing him. Then, if 1 Dr drinks, all Dr’s drink. That’s only me this week, as Rowdy is now retired. Rowdy had been discussing health concerns with Cris Cross, he was explaining about a device called a gyro ball that can be used to strengthen arms, but Rowdy explained that there were also other ways to do that. Pink Bits was charged for mixing up Half-a bar and Shafted. The “smart one” was supposed to differentiate them, but looking at Half-a-bar in a helmet did not help matters. Teflon then scored another charge for his “heavy” fall on trail. Half-a -bar returned his glass, saying he wasn’t getting another charge, which resulted in another charge, as he was resembling a cock with his helmet on. Which follows that if one circumcised cock drinks, all circumcised cocks drink. Half-a bar and Bent Nose took this one. We then finished up with a charge for all the Vietnam returnees, which was accompanied by Mrs D running around with her phone making helicopter noises. This audible joke worked. The last charge was a Hashy Birthday Charge to Spartacus.
Next weeks run was then announced to be from Campaspe’s (my place), 30 Merino Drive in Alfredton. BYO grog and torch. No chairs required, I have plenty.

RUN 2261 – Normal and Mastabait – 611 Eyre Street with the on after at Eureka Bistro – Monday 23rd June 2025
Precious was absent this week, so Mummy dearest (Mrs Dickhead) stepped up as stand in GM. Welcomes Back this week went to Head Hunter, Big Dog, Hush Puppy, Bent Nose and Teflon. While no sniffy runs were noted, Shafted piped up to announce that he was on 869, proclaiming his own sniffy run. Half-a-bar also scored a drink for the winter solstice, shortest day, shortest hasher. He also scored a down down for thinking he could park in the neighbours driveway.
The run was then screwed by IC. He noted that there was shit on the trail, he was followed by a shit hasher, and big dog was seen to be marking his territory on trail. The run was then scored against the 6 miracles of Christ. Did we turn water into wine – yes, there were bubbles at the drink stop. Did we walk on water – No, this week it was not wet. Did we still the storm – yes, but there were gale force winds. Did we feed 5000 people – Yes, Eureka has heaps of food. Did we cure the lepers – Yes, Half-a-bar is here. Was there a resurrection – Yes, Half-a-bar and Shafted both appeared. This run scored, 5 out of 6.
Bent Nose stepped up as acting sergeant, even though he had used his 2 jokes at the drink stop. HHH was then compared to a cult, for those looking for new ventures as they age, especially as we now have the cooch cross. There was then a group charge for those standing beyond the “No stupid People beyond this point” sign. Bent Nose was also charged for reaching 15051 runs (according to his adjusted run numbers). Pauline then charged Normal for some of the notable signage in his back shed. The Geelong supporters then scored the next down down. Mrs D was then charged since we have lost SS and gained PP. Rowdy was then charged for his eulogy, and IC was charged for leading us in a rendition of Swing Low, Sweet Chariot, at SS’s memorial. There was a magnificent turnout with many Hashers past and present in attendance.
Next week’s run was then announced to be Shafted’s run from the Grapes Hotel on Grant St. This run will be a commemorative run for Heavy, on the 10th anniversary of his passing.
We then finished up with Head Hunter telling us a story of a past Ladies Hash run though the cemetery. As the Harriettes passed by a Hasher’s grave, all walked astride the site, so that their Lady Gardens could be inspected. Despite offers to repeat, she said that this is only available if you’re dead. We then relocated to Eureka Bistro for dinner.
