Run: #2264 – A night of accidents…

By Dave Masters | 12/10/2023

Date: Monday 9/10/23
Location: Noosa Waters
Hares: Nafa & Licker

Along Shipwright Ave in the heart of Noosa Waters suburbia was a little gazebo nestled amongst the bush. What seemed like a relatively safe place to set a run turned out to be more treacherous than imagined…

The smaller pack of hashers had the hare Nafa following along to ensure we weren’t short cutting too much. There was a runners and walkers split before we crossed the busy Eenie Creek Road. At that point Roobarb with Miss Millie in tow turned back as she didn’t want to go into the bush. Once crossing the road, Whistleblower thought she would have a closer inspection of the ground, while Top Down quickly grabbed some toilet paper trail to wipe the bloodly evidence. Shortly after that, while searching for trail at a check, All Fours thought she would get on all fours having got her foot caught in the vines. The trail went through the Eenie Creek Bushland Reserve where we encountered ‘Tent City’. We didn’t actually see anyone, just tents, rubbish and some elaborate set up of solar panels. Eventually we ventured back to civilisation, around the industrial area of Production Street and past the Noosa Civic Shopping Centre. Soon we crossed the Shorehaven Park, through the Shorehaven Bushland Reserve and back home to the safety of Noosa Waters.

The runners/walkers report was given by Ma’ Dog – it was long enough trail, along with Kaffir he did some extra curriculum trail so they could have a nosey at the big road accident with helicopters circling in the air, ambos and police sirens blaring. The runners trail turned out to be 6.90km which clearly wasn’t for the faint hearted!

Down downs were given to:

Shit Stirrer Award: The f**king GM was too busy this week that she forgot to give out this award – does that mean she deserves to wear it for 2 weeks?
Red Knob – apparently has big balls that aren’t very well balanced which has worn out one shoe and sometimes causes him to go around in circles…
Milestone award: Whistleblower (25 runs) – YAYYY!
Top Down – a long lost hasher who apologised profusely for not coming to hash, so she had to reintroduce herself
Noddy gets the long walk award having to leave home to get to the hash – something like 350m, but at least he didn’t drive the car!
Roobarb – obviously had inside information of not going into the bush but she did offer tea tree ointment for the wounded; Whistleblower – for falling over, then quietly told us she fell over again; All Fours – only had scarred one knee and a bruised big toe sprain
Shazza- finally a naming 40 years in the making, she is named ‘Got Off’ because she got stopped by the cops, breathalysed, thrown in the paddy wagon, taken to the copshop to sober up and taken home again in the paddy wagon.
Blameless asked Nafa what the answer was, which we all shouted all sorts of answers –namely ‘42’. Nafa went on to explain about the ‘tent city’ of homeless people who thought Nafa was from the Police/Council trying to evict them, so they had their guard dogs out ready to pounce.

Then there was the call from the Mexican cantina to roll your own warmed Burritos, filling them with pulled pork and accompaniments served by Holy Smoke and Licker. Thanks Nafa for the treacherous trail and an insight to Tent City and muchas gracias for the catering by Señorita Licker – Olé!
