Run Date: 22nd August 2016
Run No #1870
Roots wish run – Hares: Screw, Fork, Roots and Wombat
Venue: Willetts Road Park, then On On to 8 Hoskins Court, Glenella
Hashers: 43 came & went throughout the evening.
An intrepid crew of Hashers turned up at the run site to gather for a run for ROOTS.
By the end of the night the count was close to 40
In perfect hash style the oldies appeared Crabs, Drovers Dog, Lucky to name a few.
Pensioner kindly let ROOTS lean on his Mercedes and never commented. It was noted Pensioner was breathing heavily!
The offer was made by Fork and Screw to wander off round the goose ponds and while the pack was away more of the oldies appeared…U Turn Tinky Winks Chris….. Some of this lot including Daffodil went to school together…how do they remember it was so long ago!
ROOTS and WOMBAT kept everyone entertained until the pack returned and consumed nibbles and a traditional brew of port and lemonade. We then made our way to the ON ON at ROOTS and WOMBATS house in hash convoy…except for Blurry who decided to go another way and ended up in the convoy anyway!
We were met by more family and friends with Skipper Fresh Fanny and Trickle arriving after work to join in.
Once the Hash Piss arrived…not sure why it got lost ? the circle was called.
Pensioner did a fine job of dragging the ROOTS stories from the mob, thank you Snot Tonguer, Pants, Tar Boy, Drovers Dog, Hot Rocks, Blurry, Jock Strap and ROOTS himself. Apologies if I forgot anyone.
There were a few charges….Fork, Snot, ROOTS, WOMBAT, Golly, Blurry and of course a big down down to the oldies but goodies The returning hashers who came to see ROOTS. Pensioner managed to tell the longest worst joke and the circle closed.
NOSH was a serving of fine quality hash sausages with the trimmings and desert. 3 course meal a bit flash for hash I thought! The snags must have been good as even ROOTS ate one.
ROOTS bad everyone farewell as he returned to the Mater before they locked him out.
The stories continued as the beer flowed until the last of the hashers made their way home.
Thanks to the Hares for a great night.
And a big Thank You to ROOTS and WOMBAT for opening their house and allowing us all to share some great stories and many laughs with a very special family.
