22 hashers attended the run #2169 for Mackay Aye Hash.

Hare Flaps had an envelope run arranged for our encouragement. Off we went into the yonder, to find to turn left?

SCB, the walkers, and high achievers all made the loop back home. The usual procedures followed, pay the $$, enjoy the appetizers and drinks of ale and cider. Alas! The beer was diminishing quickly. Top Knot’s duty called upon asap to re-stock the sorrowful esky.

Entrée of gourmet Tomato Soup, followed by the traditional Circle called and GM charged again. 2 weeks in a row now.

Main course delivered a selection of Mango and Apricot Chicken on fettucine, along with Sweet & Sour Pork on rice. Love your work Flaps.

On home shortly after, with next week’s run at Zorro’s. 

Weather forecast for the weekend is drizzling rain.

The Caravan and Camping Expo this weekend at the showgrounds, Barnesy has Covid and Legends on the Lawn has been postponed to 27 August.

Voting on Saturday for the Federal Election.

On On,

Matches and Zorro.

Hare: Prick 
Venue: Under Southern end of Ron Camm Bridge,
access by dirt road @ Northern end of Hume Street, West Mackay.
Hashers: 19

With rain threatening 19 brave hashers gathered at clubhouse number 2 under the Ron Cam bridge. The last time I remember being there, was during a cyclone it was wild and woolly. Luckily there was no cyclone (weather cyclone or hasher Cyclone). It has changed a bit since then, civilized walkways and fences so we couldn’t park under the bridge and keep the rain off.

Rarebutt and Titanic had a bit of trouble with the exact location, even after Delicious gave them a map, and specific instructions on how to get there from Caneland car park, however they eventually found their way to the start.

Pensioner was no where to be seen, apparently he didn’t want to get his Merc dirty, or to disappear down a pothole. Hash piss also had some trouble finding the run site as well and everyone was in a panic, no piss but to the credit of Maneki Pussy the piss arrived safe and sound

Prick called the pack to order and swore there was a pisstop,  unfortunately a few missed it apparently, so missed out on a top brew, well according to Prick.

There was a total lack of light but Flaps came to the rescue with a light and a table so everyone could see each other, although Rarebutt and Titanic lurked in the shadows, couldn’t quite see what they were up to.

The trail meandered along the path and with a bit of luck everyone  managed to find their way back to the on on where Prick had heated up some potatoes with butter and garlic, but no fucking salt.

The hare was given his just desserts. Charges were made down downs consumed,  jokes were told with tounger telling two jokes both were quite amusing.

The nosh was served, pies, peas and tomato sauce, Prick obviously spent hours in the kitchen making them, or was it chef four-n-twenty. Everyone stood around talking and consuming their pies. It then started to spit rain so everyone thought it was about time to leave, Prick and tounger stayed a bit longer but even they succumbed to the weather and headed off home

On on to next Monday at 17 Jarrah Street Beaconsfield, for what could be the last time. Flaps

No run report this week 

Run Date: 25.04.2022
Run No: 2166
Hare: Delicious
Venue: 117 Tropical Ave Andergrove
Hashers: 19

Well we all know whose run it is Just take one look at the sky, but even with it looking as black as a witches tit, 19 intrepid / stupid hashers turned up, for a run of undetermined length, because either the rain washing any marks away, or  Delicious bring three sheets to the wind after Crystals dawn service run  was not game to bend over to place them there. But one must give credit where credit is due because she spent a lot of time holding up the corner post of the veranda, presumably to protect us from the rain that didn’t fall until we were safely under cover.

The run, well what is there to say it was the shortest run ever but it still managed to get almost everyone lost and if it wasn’t for the hashers uncanny sense to be able to sniff out where the esky is some of them would still be out there   Very Thirsty

One advantage of a short run is that U get more drinking time before the bloody Monk interrupts us to regale us with one of his history lessons. Be assured I have duly noted this and will be taking the appropriate shorter approach to run setting next week     ???

Now onto the circle; the hare coped one for the run and one for hanging passionately onto quite a large pole.  Prick for a returning runner. and I think others but I was at the esky getting a drink because I drank the other one during the history lesson Then 2 naming Queen Bee  was dethroned and became Maple syrup and the Argentinean whose name I cannot pronounce let alone spell is now pussy fucker

There were a few jokes but the standard is declining. come on U lot circulate around town and pick up some new material.

Delicious presented the nosh and the sea gulls swooped followed by the quieter sound of munching and slurping AND finally the gentle patter of rain falling on the roof. The quieter sound of contented conversation ebbed and flowed till it was shattered by “Last Drinks Please” then the scramble to the esky soon after the sound chairs scraping and being folded as the intrepid faded into the evening thus ending the festivities

Hare: Fork
Venue: 80A Maple Drive, Andergrove
Hashers: 20

 

Who would have thought there was so many hashers doing nothing on an Easter Monday Public holiday!  All 17 arrived in dribs and drabs chaffing at the bit to go for a walk or did they come to eat Screws 70+2 Birthday Cake, which  is probably more likely.

Our Hare Fork, called “Are We” which eventually created some kind of movement towards the driveway and out to the road.  Explaining that she had set a trail, but it was washed away by the rain, so it was to be a live hare run.

On there return we were joined by Joe, visiting from Capella (Fork’s Brother), yet another one looking to eat birthday cake.  Nibbles was 2 elaborate boards filled with cheeses, salami, dried fruits, dips, and a variety of crackers.  After these were completely devoured, and quite a few drinks later.  Smut gave the 5-minute notice that the circle would be up.

The Hare was sung the usual “SHITTY” Trail song, not enough hills, not enough sand, too long, not long enough blah blah blah.

Charges for Tarzan, first for charging JCF for a hat, then it was decided it was a cap, then realised he stuffed up and could not charge JCF, who quickly reversed it.  Then Tar boy again, with wishing Knicker Licker Happy Birthday when he arrived instead of Screw. Maneki Pussy just for being Japanese and having an unusual thirst for Guinness beer.

Returning runners included Flaps, Mariano and Knot Head. No name Joe gladly took one as a visitor.

Flaps told us a little story about his days selling door to door, which prompted Tonto to tell us about a stall at the Seaforth markets selling whips, which turned out to be selling cameras loaded with porn…..

Knot Head’s joke complete with props and actions, being an umbrella bang bang your dead gun, and his impersonation of a tank.  Yes, you had to be there, but I am still in shock, he actually made people laugh.  Which was rewarded with a down down and then copped another for spillage of beer on the couch.

Screw and Fork were both charged with Hashy Birthdays, Fork’s was last week, but had said nothing. 

Hash song sung and the Circle closed, we were then served cold chicken, ham, salads and rolls, followed by the long-awaited Birthday cake, which didn’t disappoint.

I reminded everyone about the Mystery Bus Trip on Saturday the 28^th of May, we need heaps more bums on seats for this one, so get your money in and come and enjoy a momentous day.

 Also, if you wish to participate in the Over 100kg Run 11 (Virtual) to be held on Sunday the 19^th of June 2022 please let me know. $35.00 buys you a Goodie Bag, which includes your very exclusive 5XL shirt.  So you can be a fat bastard and eat pies and drink beer on the day, and send a photo to the Over 100kg Run Facebook page.  We have 6 registered from Mackay so far.

See you next Monday for Anzac Day either at 6:00am for Mackay Full Moon Breakfast at Crystal’s abode or 6:00pm at 117 Tropical Avenue, Andergrove (that is if I am still upright)?

Hare: Tarzan
Venue: 4 Evans Ave North Mackay 
Hashers: 24

As another Monday evening descended on us, 24 eager Hashers gathered at Tarzan aka Tarboy and U Turn’s humble abode in Nth Mackay. The over riding factor of the night was, Wheelies 40^th bday, he turned up early with his side kick Maneki Pussy, the excitement was the hash piss was early also. 

Six pm came and the hare was casually putting on his shoes, so we waited while he chatted and put his shoes on.

When ready Tarboy called us to attention, the run was sent in chalk and on the right-hand side. If there were no marks, they were washed away in the scud of rain that came through at 5pm. Poor excuse, he just didn’t steal enough from the school. Tarboy, you have to put marks down so they can be washed away. Full marks for piss stop brew, then on home. It was noted that a few hashers lost trail very quickly, sniffed out the pub next door, as you do, dropped in and held up the bar for a short while.

Nibbles were served, sans 1 lot of salsa, which ended up the walls and on the floor of the kitchen. Beers were drunk, fees paid and a voice from out of the darkness called the circle. We all jumped to attention and formed said circle very promptly, (just joking).

Tarboy called forward to get his just desserts for a shitty trail. There were a few other charges can’t remember them all. Jokes were told, hashy birthday sung for Wheelie, Hash song sung and circle closed.

Nosh was served, and devoured in record time. Birthday cake, poppers, sparklers and desserts were ready. Another rousing rendition of Hash birthday sung again. Wheelie had a gay old-time testing most of the slices of his. Fantastic quality control technique he has.

Was a great night, with cold booze, great food, great company. With that mineself, Fork and Deliciousssh headed home.

See you all next week at Maple Drive.

Hare: Pensch & Mango 
Venue: 12 Douglas Street Rural View 
Hashers: 21

 

Here is the run report for Mon 4/4/22. Run 2163 I believe. About 21 motley crew showed up at Pensh & Mangos for this sortee  thru Suburban Rural View. What a hilly little project it turned out to be. Anyway I missed the Piss stop because I was gossiping to (Pissed) a returning Runner from afar. However (Lassie) my extensive knowledge of Rural View took me on a slightly shorter trail. A fair bit of crap was talked about till the stand in monk JCF arrived in the nick of time. On casually glancing around I mentioned to Zorro that we had no GM, No Monk , no Choirmaster till JCF did his stand in Monk thing. I thought no Smut so we won’t get a history lesson from Wikipedia. Zorro then  piped up & said he has been in contact. ON ON I thought However he was pulling my leg. Thank the Lord. Circle called some charges were delivered. Pensch 1 shitty trail, 2 patching furniture with cable ties & some more obscure ones. Fork for Hash Spillage while telling jokes Pissed came up with one about refurbishment of the Taj Mahal which flew over most heads. Circle then lingered on with charges for no hash attire.(Lucky, Moth, Pissed & Blind. We welcomed visitors from Brisvegas Moth & Soak plus returning runners Lucky & Pissed. Circle finally completed & all agreed it was our longest circle in living memory. Then Nosh time. Dips bikkies for starters, Chicken pasta with side of sweet potato bake then dessert of Mangos rock cakes & brownies. All hit the spot very pleasingly. Thanks Pensch & Mango. Then it was time to toddle off home. See ya next week at the TARBOY  & U -TURNS joint. On On The TARBOY.

Committee Run at Harbour

 

22 Hashers rocked up to Mulherrin Park at the harbour, supposedly held at the big concrete crocodile, but since this seemed to be too far away for the mob, we moved closer to the toilet block, which also happened to be closer to the beer…..no brainer!

The mob milled around talking assorted shit, when Wheelie turned up in a different car, guided by yet another carer…. AshRae (hope the spelling’s right.

Hare Daffodil announced the run, which started at the croc, but we was at the dunny, so the whole lot of us short-cutted from the very start. Off we went anyhow, heading towards the surf club and into gardens and sand dunes as was to be expected at the harbour. Eventually the mob returned, where everyone tried to give me money, not believing this was a freeby Committee run. Fork and Corgi produced some bread, bikkies, dip which the hoard gobbled down…. Then the circle was called by the eminent Monk, who had trouble reading his own notes due to lack of lighting. Finally got going, only to be drowned out by local Harley Hoons having a loudest exhaust competition.

Daffodil was called forward for a hare down down. Charges ensued which saw down downs thrown about to Paw Paw, Rarebit and Titanic, Fork, JCF and Wheelie’s new helper AshRae…. I think that was all, may have missed some. Tonguer told a joke, which seemed to fall flat, so I tossed one in about a gynecological mechanic. The song was sung and the mob settled into the beer, only to have the Harley Hoons return, to prove that a Harley can rattle windows with a twist of the throttle.

Corgi and Fork rustled up some nosh… pulled lamb and veggies and bread rolls… very chompy.

More bullshit was bandied about, until folks started to wander off home. All in all, a very pleasant evening in idyllic surrounds!

Next week I’ll introduce you to a few small hills around The White House On The Hill.

See ya then.

Hare: Maneki Pussy & Wheelie
Venue: Park @ Beachway Bld, Shoal Pt Waters
Hashers: 20

 A beautiful day and evening to follow. The temperature last night was 20 degrees. Last to arrive was Zorro and Half a Boat but they weren’t walking either, a sore toe for Zorro and a broken toe for Half a Boat? Wheelie and Fill de Jaw were ready to lead us off to follow Maneki’s trail as she was finishing off her cooking for the night. Our two newbies from Hookers’s run Thomas and Joy joined us as we were heading towards the beach. We discovered large colourfully decorated arrows following around the paths and across the main road circumnavigating Nautilus Park and arrived at Wheelie’s house for a drink stop. The Hash piss stop sign on Wheelie’s driveway had flowers drawn on either end, you couldn’t miss it.  Quite the artist. An old young runner came back tonight. It was Blind, Pissed’s youngest son.  He was first in as he wanted a run. From here it was homeward bound around to the other side entrance to the park. I think only Blind and Corgi found that bit.

Wheelie and Fill had their favourite dips and chips ready for us. The sun setting was a glorious reddish gold. We were waiting for the lights to come on but didn’t eventuate, maybe because of the swallows nest glued to either side of the light fittings was the problem? Maneki left the lights from her car on, while she ferried the smorgasbord of foods to the table. Tonto came to the rescue with a lantern and Pensioner left Flaps solar light on too. 

The circle started with Smuts lesson on this day! Maneki and Wheelie were given a drink for setting the run and a welcome back drink was given to Blind , Fill , Thomas and Joy. Charges and Jokes were called for. Hooker was brave and remembered her joke as she was telling it. Pensioner came through with another. Maneki’s friend Mariano with the 4wd came to the rescue with his head lights, when the circle closed with Pensioner leading the Mackay Hash Song off. Japanese style food was kept warm in the bay marie. Plenty of rice dishes and Sushi, followed by a chocolate brownie slice and green tea flavoured chocolate biscuits. Taste buds were tested. Thanks for a wonderful night.

Hashers: 15

 

15 Lost Souls turned upon a bleak and wet night at Hooker’s humble abode, excitement escalated when Maneki & Wheelie, not because they are hash piss, but because WHEELIE not only in a new sporty red wheelchair, but also a brand new car. Hashers mingled seemingly to admire his new wheels, they were checking out how well the esky fitted , there may have been a comment overheard, ‘ great we can get a bigger esky now’.

JCF called us to order and handed out the dread envelopes, the pack trundled off, returning sometime later very wet. Pensioner short cutted and was back much earlier than the rest of the pack, muttering something about KFC  or maybe it was Macca’s.

Nibbles were served, garlic butter spuds, (very nice).

The Monk called the circle, down downs given to the Hare, Pensioner can’t remember why and Zorro for not dying and returning to the fold. Jokes told by Hooker and Screw, ( of course Mine was the best). Song was sung and circle closed.

Nosh served, with JCF saying that there was not meat in nosh as he couldn’t buy any sausages, me thinks he was playing with his own sausage. The night carried on , ‘til last drinks was called and there was a mad dash to the esky. Wheelie was worried about his car being scratched, by the thirsty hashers.

With that mine self and Fork toddled of home in my old car.

Next weeks run @ Park@  Beachway Boulevard, Shoal Pt Waters.
