Hare: Screw & Fork
Venue: 80A Maple Drive Andygrove
Hashers: 19
19 Hashers gathered at Screw & Fork’s joint in deepest dark Andygrove. Trying to be oblivious to the rain, we all squeezed in under the rear porch. Did I mention it was raining? At the appropriate time Screw led us out to the front gate, in the rain, and proceeded to mumble something about chalk marks washing away in the rain. Because it was raining. Anyway, with umbrellas pointing skywards, we set off, in the rain, to the local pub, The Andygrove Tavern. Well, we got there, even though it was raining, and yours truly, having access to the HashCash, procured several jugs of refreshing ale to wash down the rain. I might add here that the manager of said pub is in the running for publican of the year for giving us a 10% discount. $4 off an $18 jug = $14. Huh? I hear you ask….. that’s 22.18%. Well, yes it is, so don’t tell him.
After slurping the beer, including the 22.18% we got for free, it was time to dive into the rain once more, and back to the beer at home, in the rain. Did I mention it was raining….? Well, actually, it seems, Mackay got the highest rainfall in the state, so yes, it was raining.
Back at the ranch, a cobloaf appeared, and quickly disappeared….along with more beer, until the circle got called, and the usual happened….down downs for the hares, a joke or three, general bullshit, charges? dunno, can’t remember, and a rousing chorus of the hashsong….. and then, circle closed!
Fork dived into the kitchen and returned with a steaming pot of rice n curried sausage stuff, which went down a treat, seeing as how it was a wet nite. And then, after hearing stories of an unfortunate woman who choked on a lamington, produced a big pack of ……. lamingtons. No deaths though, as they all got chomped….. more general banter, and then the hoard wandered off home, in the rain.
A great wet night, although a slightly marred ending when we got home, and Mango decided to enter the garage at breakneck speed, crashing into my new motorcycle. Hmmmm. Not happy.
OnOn…. Pensch.
