Garbage for 21st June - SIF - 98410 Shands Road
We are scheduled to start at 6.30. Not 6.40. Or 6.45. Or just after 7.
We are supposed to wear Hash gear.
We are supposed to merrily sing happy songs of hashing accompanied by gay quaffing of ale. OK, not the gay bit, but you get the picture.
We are supposed to set clever cunning runs of carefully thought out sophistication, designed to tax the brain and keep the spirits buzzing, whilst discreetly keeping the pack together by the smart use of checks and false trails.
What did we get this week? A 10km f*cking square dance round the busiest and darkest and most dangerous country roads of far flung Lincoln, with the occasional 800m obvious token false trail thrown in!
Good job I am not a whinging Pom, otherwise I could have a field day....but no, I will rise to the occasion and pretend it was a good run, just in case any virgin hashers get to read this and having read about the excitement decide to join our merry band.
And for those unable to read between the lines I will also include an alternative translation
So...
By 6.30 sharp everybody had already gathered at SIF’s place, having easily found the place by following his easy to follow instructions, and were in good spirit, ready to face the challenge ahead.
By 6.50 we still only had about ten hashers. Most people had missed the unmarked turning and shot off up the road. Others had figured there was NO WAY the run was this far out in the sticks, got scared and run for home, luckily coming across the entrance to SIF’s on the way. Bypure chance we ended up with a good size pack. It was cold, dark and we were grumpy as f*ck.
ON ON was called and we gathered at the letter box at the end of the road, the FRB’s dispersing to seek out the trail. Finding the first clear directional blob we set off on the run.
There was no trail. SIF has to tell us where to go.
The trail followed a beautiful country lane which bent and twisted through the countryside affording us the opportunity to enjoy rural Lincoln in all its splendour. Checks were aplenty and cleverly spaced to ensure the pack stayed together.
It was a straight road. The main road. The only road. As we picked our way up the verge, choking on the petrol fumes from passing traffic roaring past at a clearance of about 6 inches, squinting to pick uot the occasional bit of flour, it became very clear that this was not exactly going to be a navigational challenge. after a mile or so there was a f*cking obvious false trail that 007 and Just Noze gamely followed, before following the pack left.
A little way along the trail, an arrow took us right and up a hill, fighting through the shiggy and bush bashing our way for a while until popping unexpectedly back out onto the road.
The trail markings just stopped but apparently went off road onto a hill. One Loos and 007 missed it completely and ran on, while the pack did actually find it and took a pathetic little detour to relieve the monotony of straight roads. New boot Jessica was very bemused by the whole thing
The bush bashing was eventful and full of adventure
Monkey Wrench fell over
Just past the hill, we reached the first piss stop. SIF served up delicious soup and we all had a good chuckle about the route so far.
Most of us whinged, so SIF gave us soup to shut us up. It was delicious.
Dagy was sporting funky headgear which made him look a bit of a wag
Tit
Off we went again , weaving again along country lanes
We turned left and went along a straight road. Again
Another deviation and another cunning false trail , wending our way along a watercourse and riverbed
We turned right,. The fish filled creek SIF excitedly warned us about was a turd filled ditch by the side of the road
At the end of the creek we came across an old and little used Hash mark “GB24” which we consulted about and worked out to mean “Go back 24 markings” Classic Hash ingenuity.
What the f*ck was that all about?
The trail darted back and forth
We turned left again
Finally we came upon the tennis courts where the local girls were practising their netball skills and stopped for a brief piss stop and to shout words of encouragement to the sporty young athletes.
The blokes leered for a bit at the girls and shouted abusive sexist remarks
On home, through woods, over hills and across shiggy filled valleys, we arrived back at SIF’s place
We turned left
Food was a delicious BBQ of sausages and potato / veggie patties with bread and butter
Food was a delicius BBQ of sausages and potato / veggie patties with bread and butter
Fines were administered as follows:
Book fines #2– Orful Fuk 12, Dagy 2 million, Wowo 102, Gloworm some multiple of 2
Supreme – 300 runs presented with his bowl
Labrat, Oxy and Linc – photocopier fixers
Flapper – naked
Just Noze – fishing for turds
One Loos – high viz romper suit
Wee Knackers – something about his tread depth
Linc – not knowing the difference between a chameleon and a camel toe
007 – inviting newbies Nick and Jessica, but they went home early
SIF – hare
Tits – went to Monkey Wrench for fondling her own nips
Linc – lost property.
We all thanks SIF for a fantastic run
It was a bit shit
On On 007

GARBAGE FOR 14th June - Just Noze - Ruapuna Race Track - cycle(lights needed), run or walk
I am still recovering from the trip to the “South Side” of the city and all the pleasures that entails.
Admission. I must be thick. After preparing myself for Just Noze’s run, I goggled “Ruapuna Race Track”. From the map there was only 1 public entrance. Easy to find I told myself. Confident, I set off at 1749 hours, knowing I had heaps of time.
The Gods were against me. Public Entrance #1 – “SHUT”, but it was great Meemee was there. Together we tried the back entrance (you dirty minded bastards !!!!) – The back entrance track looked unused and the far gate was locked. A phone call by MeeMee – informant advised use “Leggats Road entrance”. WRONG. Next phone call by MeeMee established we were to use “Public Entrance #2” – if only Just Noze had advised us of this by email in last weeks Garbage…. But MeeMee & Dogs did arrive …. FINALLY …. at 1848 hours… hence no 1830 “On-Timers” photo.
Anyway.. we got there.. there was a trail brief… bikers went 1 way .. walkers & runners another…
After the stress of arriving late… and seeing heaps of hashers from Chch HHH .... most of the trail was a blur… that includes the blur of WoWo orbiting the track at WARP 9 leaving all behind him… I do remember Just Noze talked about his “salted nuts” … Hudder did a bit of “nut cracking” … Shrek left a deposit on the track … STD had a great tee shirt … there were 2 PS’s but they seemed to be in the same place … Dagy wasn’t there… RLD was warm … Sniffer sniffed… and all anticipated the excitement of Orful Fuk’s legs 11.
We all assembled in the Chris Amon Lounge (well that what I am going to call it) .. soup was served and the fines circle set up… all anticipated a long event as Missing Linc was not there to ration the fines and JM set the challenge to “kill” it all….
(now I refer to my notes as it write this….)
JM started by enforcing her authority:
· RLD (ex NZJM) had the nerve to correct OUR JM – instant fine for her – she did it again – another fine (RLD is a slow learner or a cheap skate drinker)
· Dogs – for not being like the other male JM’s, office holders, ex NZJM and assorted poofters .. he was there .. they must have had “man flu”
· Just Noze – the HARE…. setting trail on a bike and not having the intelligence to cover the tyre tracks in the soft wet grass… look at that face .. and this was only WATER..
· Orful’s legs 11 … official checkers were Worker Skirker & STD .. their report confirmed Orful was a man .. but needed more work on inner thigh muscle tone… and the other little appendage needed “assistance”
· Labrat .. for joining the Garden City “Camel Toe” Club .. more applicants needed…
Dogs to declare his fines would be kept to a maximum to clean out all Missing Linc piss – in his memory .. the theme of the fines was “PATHETIC”:
· RLD for her PATHETIC Michelin Man dress alike attempt
· Bag Shag and all others with body piercings for their PATHETIC attempt to increase their iron intake.
· Monkey Wrench, Hudder, Sniffer, Worker Shirker, Flapper, Ding-a-ling, Doing Down - being so PATHETIC Dogs remembered their names…
· One Loos being so PATHETIC challenging an 80 year old man to a game of golf then quitting after a minor earthquake after the 3rd hole.
¨ Prick – not present – again!!!!!
¨ Condom went to STD for thinking a red sticker for on her tee shirt gave here “protection”
Then there was FOOD.. and Pictures….
Assorted pictures of the hashers and their antics…. and what a good one it was…. Note Bagshag caught in the act of Txt’ing.. guess who’s head..
.. I am still to lazy to write more..
see you at winter camp..
a different Garbage writer next week as I am away….
ONON.. Dogs Bollocks

GARBAGE FOR 7th June - Gloworm birthday run - 75 Teesdale St, Burnside
BUT…. A full gaggle of hashers were there at 1830 !!!! Silly buggers!!!! How PATHETIC – they really must be a bored bunch (that was thrown in for you Missing LINC). Lusty even “raced” in to be there on time.
As usual, while the early birds waited, conversation turned to a favourite topic.. sex in the old days of hash ..
· Linc talked about his aching jaw
· Someone about bloody foreigners
· Someone named hashers who used to ask for “private cabins” at camps to do a bit of sly shagging
· Linc told all in great detail about his carrot fetish
· AND we all reviewed with great interest the “tits & bums” pages of Garden City’s 21st Anniversary Magazine (1984-2005), in which Squatter seemed to be in each photo.
This killed time until Bagshag arrived.
Gloworm issued trail instructions, all ignored them, then “MARATHON part 2” began.
The trail was really confusing from the start and this explains why Oxy & friends got lost from the bit where we were told to “go out the drive and turn right” until the food was finished. (Not that anyone really cared.)
Dagy and SIF also got lost, but luckily found a bottle store which sold Dagy the last hip flask of whiskey in Canterbury. Dagy soon killed this and the “noisy Dagy” came out.
Those who followed trail twisted and turned through Burnside, with walkers being instructed about a “short cut”. All became completely disorientated. Walkers made the 1st PS after a mere 11km and were seen departing in the distance as the runners thundered in after their “long 18km loop”.
Things for the runners deteriorated from there. The runners missed the 2nd PS, held at the new secret above of Baby1 and UC, and went OH. Walkers found the PS but soon got cold ad bored. OH was called by Gloworm. FU was the groups reply.
· The “Hare” and birthday boy – Gloworm
· Wedgie – legs 11. Wedgie got the hussies steaming, modelling his Dan Carter apparel. Labrat lead the hussies in the inspection and she reported Wedgie had the appropriate ATTRIBUTES TO BE A HASHER.
Fingers carried on fining:
· Dogs for being thick
· Frigid for killing a fence
· Lost property to Navi & Frigid
· The hares (again) Gloworm & LabRat
The smell of the fantastic food was wafting around the room AND the very load and enthusiastic encouragement for the circle from DAGY, provided the encouragement for Dogs to declare his fines would be kept to a minimum.
· Just Noze for signing in for run using number “HERE” – the translated of this on a cell ph keyboard is 4373 runs.
· SIF for getting Dagy loaded
· All hussies for planking before it was trendy to do it.
· All those with “holy socks”
¨ Prick – not present – again!!!!!
¨ Condom went to DAGY for obvious reasons
A then FOOD and birthday cake.
Oxy & friends arrived….
BUT, we kept the best for last!!! Dagy was soooo pissed he tried to chat up Gremmie to get a quick shag. Luckily, Gremmie was only ½ as pissed as Dagy, and Gremmie turned him down.
ONON.. Dogs Bollocks ..

GARBAGE FOR 31 May – 007 – 15a Leonie Place, Bexley
Hashers know when GLOWORM sets a run it will be long or when DAGY sets one you will get dirty. I sort of thought that 007’s reputation for long’ish runs exaggerated. READ on and see.
Others like me were naïve, as we did get a 20+ turnout.
MILF (aka “the slow learner”) exceeded the PDA display from FRIKIN’s run by presenting KLINGON a Rose then more PDA. Luckily, all present realised this was an attempt to get a free fine before the run (cheap bastards), they should just buy piss like the rest of us.
Banter and chatter abounded until the excited FRB’s forced 007 to call “Hash Hush” and give a trail brief. He mentioned 2 piss stops, trail on chalk & flour and a runners/walkers split. This lulled all into a state of mind that this was just another run, not a dress rehearsal for the SBS marathon.
Photo shows “Hudder” enjoying a little pre run display of girl-on-girl fun
Off we went. Out the drive and turn right, through the delightful surrounding of Bexley. I chatted to a new hasher (well I think she was there last week). She introduced herself as “HUDDER”, I insist that’s what I heard. (Later her name was translated for me and I found out it was actually “Heather”). You will understand my confusion as she said she came from “the South”. I asked where and her reply was “Georgia”. For those who do not know their Geography, Georgia is a small settlement, 8.7 km out of Mossburn, on the Mossburn to Te Anau highway, in Southland. (These facts verified on the night by honest school teacher Navi).
If I was to describe the full SBS marathon course we set out on I would be exhausted in writing this, but sufficient to say the first leg took the runners around Bexley, through the country, across rivers, over motorways and beyond. The shear length of the trail was a challenge, but the erratic skimpy use of chalk and flour added many more KM’s to the actual trail. Walkers fared no better.
PS 1 found us at New Brighton Pier. Exhausted, most hashers collapsed or sat. We were “low and sad”. Spirits were raised by the JM performing an impromptu PLANK. Walkers were keen to get back on trail. They buggered off, leaving the FRB’s behind. 007 promised we had done the “hard yards” and it was a mere stroll to home with a piss stop thrown in – LIAR!!!!! – it was the other ½ of the SBS marathon!!!!!! Trail skirted the river taking in 5 stop bank redevelopment work sites, providing excellent mud negotiation training for those keen cross country marathon.
PS 2 found us beside the scenic and aromatic “Lake Bexley” (aka the poo ponds). 007 looked very sheepish and surprised to hear the abuse that was directed at him. A pity the poo was just a bit too far away to reach. 007’s expression shows his complete befuddlement at our barbed comments, spoken between gaps as we sucked in the cold night air. His only retort was “OH, on home is just 4.9 km along the road”
Exhausted, hashers limped in to RLD’s. RLD still had the good sense to stay away.
Much dithering occurred trying to organise a circle. Oh the dilemmas – inside or outside? where will the piss go? who will pore the fines?
Thank god the JM for the night, GLOWORM, took control got the fines circle sorted, using Xbox as his ‘enforcer”
There were fines for.
¨ 007 the HARE – the architect of the SBS Marathon rehearsal and the owner of a completely f*cked dribble dropper – he tried to pass the damage to the dribble dropper off as earthquake damage.
¨ Register fines for “9” for MILF, Navi, Orful, WoWo
Dogs took over as fines master , and immediately was fined for ?? who actually knows.
¨ Fines for the “Late comers”, ie those after 1830 but before we got too bored, to: Frigid, Orful, Vase & Xbox. NOTE BAGSHAG was not fined for being late as she only fits into the “EXTREMELY LATE” category.
¨ Heaps of hashers for actually responding to Dogs Bollocks command to Shrek to “SIT” and actually sitting. AND GLOWORM for not understanding the sitting is different from planking.
¨ Navi and Nice But were congratulated on the expected arrival of their ‘first born”.
¨ “HUDDER” for coming from the “SOUTH”
¨ Orful for deliberately enticing HUDDER use his day glow last week asking her to wear it again, as her “body scent” had worn off it and he needed her to recharge the smell of what he called his “cuddly cloth”
¨ MILF was fined for the “rose incident – and Pulled Out recited a brilliant poem to put more sting into the fine.
¨ Prick – not present
¨ Condom went to KLINGON
A pizza and Eskimo pie feast followed.
BUT the excitement had not yet finished, as these photos show
Winter Camp 2009
19-21st June 2009
This years event was back at the venue of the first Winter Camp - Glenroy Baptist Camp. It is such a popular camp we had to book it over a year out! We had hashers from all over coming to this event - Auckland, Nelson, Wellington, Mount, New Plymouth, Hamilton, Rotorua, Taupo and Chch! The event ended up with over 50 attendees, which was a really good turnout. The first visitors arrived thurs night and were hosted at Dagy's, RLD's and Mee Mee's. Dagy's preamble drinks and sing-a-long at his place was very noisy and had a few hangovers before the weekend even started! Friday saw a couple of winery tours before getting to the venue and the last visitor arriving at 8.30pm. All had alot of fun friday night drinking, playing table tennis, dancing, singing, tampolining, eating and sleeping (some alot earlier than others)! Drinking games while playing table tennis were big for the night... although it seemed more was spilled than drunk! There was dinner and supper to keep all those munchies at bay. Saturday morning saw a start with breakfast and a few more drinks before the run start. Everyone(other than those too hungover to leavve bed) was piled into vehicles and driven to the run start near Horata. The run went around Horata and into some wet river territory. It was here Xerox got thrown into the river and split open his knee on rocks, and was taken by Vasie to A&E - we didnt see them again till much later on! We also lost Dagy and Phlonker on the run (they didnt make the 3rd PS and circle), and they ended up running (haha) back to the venue while a search party was out looking for them. We had the boat races - which Nelson H3 won (the NZGM's couldnt win this one even with a bit of rigging!). It was more drinking and playing and singing to guitars till getting ready for dinner. Dinner was in theme - ficticious characters - and it was amazing who came to dinner... see photos for this one! After dinner the numbers seemed to die off and only the hardy survuved another night of partying (or those that turned up for sat night only)! Another late night and an early rise for breakfast and the recovery run. This run took everyone up to the memorial for the NZGM's fines and a few others. The view of the mountains was quite spectacular. Dagy and Xerox wandered off into the distance with their guitars singing 'words' - but they did come back eventually! Time to pack up, clean up and head off home... well so I thought until we stopped at the Horata pub to a load of hashers all drinking and singing to guitars! Cant we get enough at the weekend!! On till next year... and maybe snow then!
Thanks to those that helped set up and clean up the venue, and a big thanks to our chefs - Hayley and her mum!

Ancient Garbage
GARBAGE FOR: 23rd November - SIF - Governors Bay Let’s keep this short…. After a GREAT xams do (yes I do remember I was there – for those who asked or cared….).. it was with a degree of apprehension that I arrived at Governors Bay for SIF’s r*n .. Apprehension?? Why.. well just look up at them there steep “mountains” and rock faces.. and knowing SIF’s pleasure at inflicting pain… The group arrive in dribs & drabs.. Linc being LATE too… and the “in” topic of conversation was “D & V” after the xmas doo.. and the hours spent on the loo.. SIF broke runners & walkers into gave groups .. gave runners some pretty elaborate instructions including “wait 5 minutes before starting” .. then loaded the walkers into a van & drove off… The “there are no rules in hash rule applied”, so runners started right away.. and YES it was STRAIGHT up.. up ..up.. AND KEEP GOING UP .... On the way UP we lost Lusty.. she got attracted to a “tooter” in a van (SIF in disguise) .. First real PS on top of a rock face millions of feet up in the “mountains”… Daggy had played mountain goat and back-packed a chilly bin of drinks/chips/bananas/.. all the way up for us.. At the PS we discovered Lusty MISSING.. Dogs & Navi went off to find her.. Navi retuned.. Dogs followed Lusty’s scent all the way to OH….. It was On HOME for all those on the mountain top ….. all the way DOWN!!!!.. Lots of shagging around waiting at the reserve by the Fire stations for the group to return .... but the dogs enjoyed it.. Straight to the fines: A few from the book & JM…, UC.. not signing in.. Legg 11 for Just Noz.. (he tried to avoid this by counting runs..8 -9-10- and what comes next for Just Noz. In his counting “ 9”) .. so he was “legs 11’d” by Fingers, Lab Rat and a good solid slobbering by Gremmie… Other fines.. SIF, Navi, the “Cheer leaders” – Labrat &Vasse (for YMCA impersonation), Navi… Condon to MeeMee.. because I could… Shorts (complete with pricks…) not present Health food sandwiches followed, with special COLD weather turned on by SIF, to get people to bugger off…. ONON.. Dogs Bollocks
GARBAGE FOR: 16th November - Dagy - Halswell Quarry, main entrance off Kennedys Bush Rd Realised I had better write this as noone else who does the trash was there! …Dawny had certainly made sure the weather was good for us even thou he couldnt be there! YAY for the RA! We had a visitor, Headshot, and a few returnees but not many runners! Dagy had to talk someone into doing the runners trail... these chosen ones were Fingers, One Loos and Lusty! The runners did a loop of the conservation area (or somewhere near there, but they got their feet wet) while the walkers headed up the hill and around the rim track! Dagy must have thought it might rain as there was a lot of flour put down for the trail! We found a halt around the top and admired the view, while Vasie and XBox located mountains according to the map. We stopped till all known walkers were there and then headed off, getting passed by 007 (who obviously didnt hold the halt for the runners) before we headed up thru the paddock to the first PS. The remaining runners then saw us drinking and short cutted to the PS. Frigid and Bag Shag made an appearance here and tried to befriend a dog as it ran thru the paddock, but once it had a closer look it decided to return home! The PS had some yummy mushroom lollies and some good conversation while we waited for 007 to get there! On we went out onto Kennedys Bush Road and up to the end. The runners had a detour down and around us, but since Dagy was later than us to the 2nd PS it dodnt matter. Here IS and Supreme caught up with us on bikes and joined us for the rest of the night. Dagy brought a beer for a thirsty passing biker and then we were all on back to the Quarry carpark. Here Tuga made an appearance... on wheels! Back at the house and Vasie and Fingers were already busy in the kitchen. Dagy decided to smoke out the granny flat, rather than the house, with the BBQ while SIF kept him company! Just before the fines circle Sister Maureen showed up so more food was quickly put on! Fingers ran a great quick circle with Firkin roped in as honorary Fines Master. Supreme was on 299 runs and Oxy on 699 runs Vasie was caught running 007 got his belated legs 11 inspection from Vasie and Lusty Lusty was great at first aid The wheels got fined Vasie got fined cause Firkin could! there were more, but cant remember (getting old) Dont forget to bring a $5 pressie for the santa sack for those going to the xmas do!!!! on on Mee Mee
GARBAGE FOR: 9th November - MILTF - 9A Pandora St, North Beach "Just PATHETIC!!!!!!!!" That’s what much of last nights r*n was… apart from the trail and the food. In keeping with this, I am deliberately writing a "Pathetic Garbage" What made it PATHETIC???? · the normal flock of late arrivals · the 1851 start · MeeMee & Labrat arriving, then using work as an excuse not to do the run, then turning up for the onon · head wind ALL the way on the run · Linc & Daggy not making ANY PS · walkers not going to the 2nd PS · the old farts who thought the music at 2nd PS was TOO LOUD · MILF being late back to here own place after the 2nd PS · Navi & Lusty leaving before the fines The FINES were PATHETIC TOO!!!! What made them PATHETIC???? · JM couldn’t organise the
circle · MILF got lost going to the circle · Only 1 book fine from the JM · Fines masters only fining: · Late "returner's" from the run.. WooWoo, Geestring, Frigid, Bagshag, Gloworm · Linc & Daggy for not making ANY PS · Fining all the "Pathetci" hashers who were there. · A new "Spit the Dummy" award initiated by the JM… he awarded it to himself!!! just PATHETIC .. The PATHETIC night continued ….. with Oxy arriving just for a feed!!! …. PATHETIC.. AND Finding out that "PATHETIC" is Lincs favourite word… well that really "PATHETIC"
2nd November - Gloworm - McLeans Island Rd, on on 75 Teesdale St Almost forgot to write this.... 9 puppies are very distracting! I slowed down as I neared the hump on McLeans Is road, and it felt like I was being watched as hashers looked to see if there was any air or scrapes! A good crowd had gathered already including One Loos and Blitzen (its been 6 months) and a newbie Elliot (encouraged along by Gloworm). After some catch up chats and nearly going deaf from the rifle range, we headed into the forest. There was a runners and walkers trail - runners denoted by 3 blobs of flour in a row, and walkers had one blob. Both trails had checks and FT's and even when the trails intersected there was different trail for each to follow.... must have taken a long time to set, and used a lot of flour!!! There was only one PS and we knew it would be near the water, so we carried on thru FT's and lost trails... we are a tough bunch of walkers!! The walkers got to the PS first, but the runners werent far behind. After a liesurely drink we took the shortest trek back to the cars. When I got back to the car park everyone was milling around waiting for Gloworm to reappear with the booze. I repeated GLoworm's words at the PS ' see you all at home', and that got everyone in their cars. Back at Teesdale St we said hello to the chef, Labrat, and got cosy in the house. The BBQ was lit and it wasnt long before Bag Sh-g and Oxy were behind the tongs! Fingers ran the circle and Dagy was made finesmaster as the appointed 2 were absent. Some fines were: One Loos - 200runs One Loos, Blitzen, Dingaling and STD - returners Labrat - wiping Gremmies nose with a tissue Fingers - asking where the onon was, when we were already there (she meant fines) Elliot then got named 'Sweaty Tease' after stripping off a sweaty T in front of Vasie and Fingers The meal was then ready... lots of salads and BBQ meat. Everyone gradually disappeared home as it was past bedtime!! on on Mee Mee
GARBAGE FOR: 007's City R*n
Well I got a tx from GLoworm late last night saying he cant write the trash as no internet at home.... so juat as well I am sick at home today and can write a brief blurb (and it will be brief)
007's city run
I was running late, but never mind, I was the cook for the evening. I got to the venue b4 everyone else and started cooking the chicken. The booze soon arrived and others found the trail in from Durham St to flat 15 with a well marked trail!
007 commented to me that he had mis-calculated how much chalk he had and was scraping fingernails along the ground near the end of trail.... so I wasnt surprised when some hashers got lost! The runners seemed to find the trail fine and got to the one and only PS(outside the avenues), but the walkers were scattered around the city. By the time we started the fines we were only missing WorkaShirka, Labrat, Frigid and Supa Sucker... but dont panic... thy arrived during the fines and got fined!
We had a huge turnout for our "PINK" run and had a complaint from one neighbour before we even started! It was a great number for all proceeds being donated to breast cancer research - $110 from night fee, and $17 from Supa's brownies (more to come from 007's workmates - hopefully). It was very nice of Supa to turn up on a tuesday and bring brownies to purchase for a donation to the cause! And they were very yummy too!!
We had a few monday nighters make a showing and a few tuesday ones that hadnt been for a while. It made 007's small unit look like a sardine tin!
It was a very scrummy feed of chicken and salad, with pink lamington and rocky road mallowpuffs to follow!
GARBAGE FOR:
Brunhilda & Navigator Lyttelton
AND!!!!!
12 Oct - Just Noze Rockinghorse Rd
Brunhilda & Navigator - MeeMee’s version…. (Dogs warning .. it’s a thorough report!!!)Right... I had right of reply to Labrats rendition of Navi's run at Brunhilda's... so here it is...
Wee Knackers was minus transport so he hitched a ride with me... he trusted me so much that it wasnt until we were well on the way that he asked where we were going! I could have taken him anywhere!!! Lol!
Ended up at Brunhilda's before 6.30pm. The drive was already full with 2 vans and a station wagon... Navi was parked just outside the gateway and I took the other side of it. We were in time to help carry the chilly bins to the barn and start the nights conversations. Slowly everyone arrived and once the barn had been scrutinised we were given instructions for the run. Since Navi had sent such an ellaborate email on the run and how to get there I wasnt paying that much attention. Off we went thru the gate opposite Brenchley Farm... we met Labrat, Gloworm and Gremmie (who were late) in the road. Gloworm was more worried about getting a drink than were we were all going or where his dog was. I got told to hang back a bit and let the runners do the checking... and while I was chatting to Gloworm I noticed Linc and Loco hangig around the gate part way up the hill. Next thing the runners came charging back along the track and past us... it was like a stampede so we just got out of the way! I hung back with Loco and Linc in case there were more shortcuts to be had. Over a wooden style and we admired a small gate in the middle of the fence (and I mean that... it was in the middle of the fence). The runners were well ahead by now but we caught up with Xbox and the other walkers. By the water tank there was a runners/ walkers split that took the walkers down and the runners up. We could hear the runners for a bit and then again while we were busy looking for our own trail at the road. Lusty checked up... saw the runners...and deserted us! Linc found the trail down and off we went. Around the corner was a very large PS and we saw a flashing light in the distance. Only a few runners bet us to the PS and we relaxed while the others arrived. Gremmie thought about trying to break the record for the height a dog can jump from... but a united 'no Gremmie' from us at the PS saved him... not that GLoworm even noticed what the fuss was about! Labrat was sweeping the runners..it was more that she didnt see the split!... so we were all accounted for once she arrived.
The next part of the run had runners heading west, while the walkers headed east... with a hint about the dead centre of town. Odd Job (007's son visiting from Auckland) decided to be a walker for this leg and we made use of his fittness at the checks. Once again I found myself at the back of the group with Linc and Loco as we went thru an old cemetary. We were reading some of the headstones and making a few comments. We got a little history lesson from Loco..... and we didnt see anyone that had lived longer than him!
We found the flashing light again and the PS. The runners seemed to have got a bit confused but made it there. Fingers knew someone in the "other" cemetary so took off to visit. When it was time we got sent on UP UP UP the hill to home. Dagy decided to be a loving husband and go and find his beloved wife (in case he got in trouble for leaving her out in the dark).
Back at home we all signed in the book... Fingers was back... but where was Dagy?? She hadnt seen him but wasnt happy as he had the car keys and the money! We started the fines as we had waited long enough... and then Dagy strolled in like nothing was wrong!
I cant recall the fines as it was too long ago but once they were over we had a very YUMMY feed that Brunhilda had prepared!!!
bit more chatting and it was time for everyone to head home.... Thanks for the awesome run Navi, and the awesome feed Brunhilda! Lets hope its not too long before we head to Lyttelton again!
On on Mee Mee
12 Oct - Just Noze Rockinghorse Rd
Well, I ask, who is going to read all that!!!
Dogs version of Just Noze run….
It was good, it was a “sort of” trail.. sort of marked with flour on sand… every 300m or so.. it had splits for walkers and runners, and a new special split for “individuals” .. i.e. those who just want to go their own way!!! (daggy, lusty and SIF), on a very scenic route (.. oooppsss … not suggesting anything - stop those filthy thoughts)
Straight to the fines:
Fine with a twist…
· What should Link, Navi, Milf, frigid, and Dogs be fined for??? Being on TIME
· What should Daggy, Lusty & SIF be fined for??? Not team players.. doing there own thing
A few other fines.. the most interesting .. Just Noze for laying trail with a “dribble DRAPPER” .. MAYBE that explains the trail issues..
Condon to LINK… (the Condon came with free water for links head)
Shorts (complete with pricks…) Lusty…
