19 eager bunnies turned up at Harley Heaven better known as Mango and Pensioner’s abode. The weather was fine and typically Easter so we had our raincoats and umbrellas just in case it rained.
Pensch being the hare, called everybody to his attention as he handed out 10 envelopes to the eager bunnies. The rules of the run were explained and it soon became aware to us all that we needed an onboard compass and a masters degree in mathematics. Anyway, that said off we went on our Easter egg hunt with the instructions;
1: Head in a westerly direction, down the hill and into the park. Follow the concrete path to it’s end at Dawson Blvd.
A pleasant stroll and plenty of discussion was had however no Easter eggs!
Next we were told;
- Turn to your left. And head north to Wallman’s Road.
Fuck that said the group after falling for this trap and false trail on back in past runs! The decision was made to open envelope 3.
- Now turn to your right and head East along Wallman’s Rd to the roundabout.
This put us one up on the sly hare as the entire herd of bunnies in search of more Easter chocolate, short cutted!
We made it to the next envelope where someone explained;
- You are now in Explorer’s Estate. Take the first exit and head North along Landsborough Dve, then left to the East along John Oxley Ave. Stop outside #60.
Something was fishy, still no fucking Easter eggs, but the surprise was to be sprung as the wise old, very old, hare would make us pay for short cutting.
- After enjoying the view, continue to Caley Tce. Turn right and head South. Stop outside #7.
On the trail, we mentioned how good the economy in Mackay region must be with this new estate showing people can still purchase new houses. We opened the next directional envelope;
- False Trail. Return to #60 John Oxley Dve.
Shit! And more shit, still no eggs.
Back we hopped until;
- Another false Trail. Return to #7 Caley Tce.
The general consensus was the Pensioner is a prick!
- Look around. How’s Mackay’s economy doing? Continue south along Caley Tce, at the end swing left to the west, then right to the south. Stop at the end.
We already discussed the economy Pensch on our dizzy last few minutes. We were counting down the envelopes now but still eagerly looking for those delicious chocolate eggs.
- See the path heading south to the traffic lights? Head to the lights.
Nice stroll, could have been some fucking eggs! Maybe this would happen on the next leg!
- You are now at Sologinkins Road, and, if you know your directions, you’ll know which way is On Home.
And yes we did! Not one bloody Easter egg! Kill the hare!
Back at Harley Heaven, we drank and drank as we drowned our sorrows for completing an eggless Easter hunt trail.
It was not long before a robed monk called the herd of bunnies together. Hmmm what was going on? Are we getting eggs?
All the usual circle entertainment was delivered and we laughed and laughed and laughed some more, but it was not long before the robe reason was revealed as the monk ceremoniously named Billy, Hard Drive was born!
More alcohol was consumed and hash nosh served. Yummy food Mango but no eggs?
Until next week have a fantastic week team MH3, on on!
