Hash Trash 2307
At the end of a smouldering day following 3 tons of rain a passle of hashers gathered at the home of The Monk, Smut. We sat around waiting for everyone to turn up, before realising 15 was all we’d get so close to Christmas…. When we were suddenly inundated with Adelaidians, well, 2 of em anyway, in the form of Gravel Rash and Badger.
Finally, the Monk herded us out to the front of the Royal abode (in Royal Boulevard, get it?) and mumbled something about chalk and other stuff. We was just about to waddle off, when the Crow Eaters took off running. WTF….. we don’t run, merely stroll. And stroll we did, all around the backblocks of Glenella. The mob seemed to get split into several different directions, but eventually everyone made it back home.
Beers and chat, and an in-depth review of how Adelaide Hash does stuff (twice a week!) and The Monk called the circle to order before plunging into yet another history lesson. Apparently something happened in 1853. The monk then accepted his down down for also being hare. Several other charges resulted in several other down downs, but I can’t recall them all…. Oh yeah, Mango got one for wearing new sandals. The Adelaidians got their just desserts for being visitors, followed by another for being frontrunning overachievers who actually ran! It was then revealed that Badger was part of the committee that cancelled Adelaide Nash Hash 3 times because of some little virus….. for that she received a down down for being an underachiever. And justly so. Some more forgettable charges, followed by a complete lack of jokes, and the circle shut.
The Monk then proceeded to reveal the results of a morning in the kitchen and produced 3 (or was it 4) pots of pasta, fried rice, chicken, curry… all very yum yum, then, not to be outdone, Flaps dived into his truck and emerged with a dazzling variety of desserts. More beers and general chitchat, and it was time to wander off home, some of us taking the opportunity to check out the local Christmas lights.
Next week it’s back to our old fav John Breen Park in North Mackay.
Pensch.
