Run: #2245 1st June run – WINTER is here early
Date: Monday 29/5/23
Location: Tewantin
Hares: Mother Trucker & Kaffir
A rather select group of hashers gathered at the Wooroi Day Use Area, located opposite the Carramar Aged Care. A rather surprising location (well, to me anyhow as a relatively newcomer) in Tewantin which is essentially in the bush. Kaffir did not disappoint with runners and walkers trails and no traffic to contend with!
Initially, it was a little slow going with many checks, the walkers doing a lot of stationary checks but eventually the lovely trails lead to open spaces, going up and down and a lot of running to do. On many occasions, we had to run through Kondom and Minder taking up the whole path as they were busy chatting and walking. The pack soon petered off with the runners and walkers split. Lazy Prick led most of the way with Next Week, All Fours and Nafa lagging behind. There were the Glider, Wooroi and Powerline Tracks, which are excellent walking and mountain biking trails. We didn’t see much wildlife, apart from hashers but there were two bike riders.
All the walkers and runners seem to come in together as it was getting dark. The walkers report was given by Insultan who loved my well marked off trail of tiny arrows on little stones – there wasn’t much real estate to put marks on in the first place! The runners report was given by Next Week, who said the first bit that Mother Trucker set was perfect and the rest was shit. A great 6km run with a 96m elevation gain, in the bush and back under an hour!
Charges for the week were for:
- Ma’ Dog & chip off the old block son, Mad Cock – who claims he doesn’t swear, drink or take after his old man!
- Graham (visitor) who has hashed in different places before, saw chalk marks in Tewantin and knew it must’ve been the hash. He also lives near to a bloke called Russell aka Whinger
- Nafa, who will be going away for months, sang his own goodbye song
- Hoarder & Tailend were absent for 3 weeks travelling around the ‘STANS’ i.e. Afghanistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Pakistan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan (I did have to look them up to spell them!)
- Biggles is a talented hasher who is ambidextrous – he can use two torches at the same time with his left and right hand! He claims he took two torches on the run, as one was for the visitor, when in fact he didn’t need any at all!
- Dance experts: Ma’ Dog doing the Nutbush City last weekend away while Beams was doing the Brooklyn Shuffle as he pulled a hammie and was shuffling along the trail tonight
- All Fours – when Wet Check pointed out that she put on the Hash Trash the run date was 1st June when it was only 29th May. Beams said everyone else noticed but were too polite to say anything…
As it got darker and colder, some lovely hot Ham & Pea soup with garlic bread was served! Thanks to Mother Trucker and Kaffir for this weeks hash frivolities as we were done and dusted and out of the park by 6:30pm!
On On
