Venue – 66 O’Brien Esplanade, Shoal Point
Hashers – 20
It could have been run 2399 or 2400 or 2401…. confusion reigns. Never mind… 20 old hashers turned up at Maple Syrup’s little shack in the boondocks of Shoal Point. After some greetings and stuff, Maple herded everyone out the front and informed us that she was a live piss stop, and follow her if you wish, or just wander off on your own little excursion through deepest Shoal P.
Me having a bung knee, I decided it was prudent to babysit the beer truck, along with Snot and Knicker, so I dunno what happened out there. But in dribs and drabs the mob returned, no-one sporting injuries, so it must have been a quiet run, indeed, so quiet that no-one found the piss stop except Maple, who decided to abandon said stop and head back home. (Editor’s note: BS!)
Then began the serious business of talking about nothing, until stand-in Monk BloJo called for quiet and began the circle. Now, the old memory fades a bit here, but there was charges and jokes and more charges, but I can’t remember any of it. I do recall the circle being re-convened at some stage to farewell Blurry, who was about to set off for S.A., dogs in tow.
Shorty thereafter, Maple emerged from the shack bearing a Canadian version of chilli con carne, which the ravenous pack fell upon, and devoured in record time.
More yackin and sippin, until the mob quietly dispersed and wandered off home.
Next week… head to the old well worn John Breen Park. See ya there
Pensch and Mang.
