Nerang Forest Run 1935 with Josephine & Sir Rabbit

Note: Please read words and view carefully as again next week a question will be asked by the GM in the circle about these words. At this stage the track record for comprehension of our hashers is abysmal but this week the clue is very easy to determine. Check out the clue to see who is the most observant GCGHHH.

Promoted by Josephine as how a Mumbles Run should be done.

Will Josephine be able to restore this run as a real bush hash run with no lost hashers?

Will the run compete with Miscarriage as the best Bush Run of the Year?

34 dedicated athletes circled around Josephine as he issued the run instructions.The pre-run briefing from Josephine was lots of waffle and there were those mumbled words …

“go that way and find the trail marked with paper” .and then adding those words of the Phantom..Only a Bloody Moron can get lost ”

After last few weeks of the so called Best Bush Run of the Year followed by the so called Best Nosh of the Year this was looking a hard act to follow by Josephine assisted by his very experienced Nosh chef Sir Rabbit.

The Run

Josephine had spent considerable effort in setting this well-marked Nerang Forest run. As he had past experience and expected it to be a great run, Josephine decided to sweep the trail to prevent any hashers losing their way…very considerate considering the debacle last time we ran this trail!!!

The runners and walkers moved into the dark abyss of the Nerang State forest to find the trail. The only relevant clue was the final information that there where no on-backs and Josephine would be standing at each “check” to make sure no one got lost and all did the full run. Good work Josephine to keep the bastards honest!!

Bent Banana, Rug , Circumference ,Fanny Charmer and Botcho were leading the runners up the jungle trail. Miscarriage’s Bush Run was all looking in trouble as this was a real jungle run.

Very quickly the runners moved forward passing walkers who all hit the wall at the first slippery hill. Josephine was waiting at the checks to make sure each person went the right way ..well done Josephine for your assistance.

On On was then called several times on the run as the group all moved and cris-crossed each other in the bush and were only saved by Josephine with his assistance to get them going the right way. Truck Tyres and 2 Dogs soon became leading runners and were reported as putting out their lights so fellow hashers would get lost .. very unhashy!!

Sir AH as one of the walkers said it all on his T-Shirt from the Mumbles run of Nerang Forest Jan 24^th 2005!!

All runners this week did do the full bush run and it was by all accounts an excellent run and unlike the previous debacles.

The run time was 45.255 minutes..Run distance 5.51 km.and covering an area of .425 sq Km.( no wonder no one got lost). The run was 145M uphill with 195 Metres downhill..In other words SFA distance.

Flasher somehow managed to get back first again ..well done Flasher. Two Dogs, Caustic, Brewtus and Missing Link came in next in 46.9 min followed by Lurch and Truck Tyres ,Rug and Fanny Charmer in 48.69.

Run Critic 2 Dogs “ Best Bush Run of the year so far with more Zigging than Zaggin. Hare Josephine put in a lot of effort and experience for this great bush run but again failed to provide a drink stop”.

Circumference also got in on the act and commented “Amazing how Josephine found new territory after all the runs from here” ..

Great effort Josephine for an excellent run.

The Run Damage

Sir Slab limped in near the end of the pack and immediately received first aid from his fellow hashers. All decided it was just a bit of bark missing and easily fixed with a plastic bag filled with ice.

The Walkers

1. Can you identify the position that this athlete has in Hash?

As always a big group of Walkers raced out with the Runners.

The dedicated professional walkers led by GM with Moonbeams , Kwakka , FOS ,VD , Swindler, Sir AH all quickly collapsed at the first jungle hill and were forced to return to the safety of the Pony Club and assist Sir Rabbit prepare the Nosh.

Hard On ,Slug ,Weekly, Jigsaw, Blue Card , Shat & Phantom all completed the walk in record time while Now Loved and Pile Driver returned late in a lather of sweat.( not sure where they walked??)

What great comraderie these brave bunch of Hash Walkers continue to experience.

The CIRCLE

The Nosh

Report from Sir Rabbit:

For the record: Minute Steaks were “Black Angus Grass Fed Porterhouse” from Super Butcher Ashmore,

Mangoes, Watermelon ,Bananas and Pinapples were purchased from a Fruit farm outlet stall in Maryborough.

Many thanks to the returning walkers for their expert chopping and presentation of the fruit & Veg.

Also a big thank you for KB, Botcho and others that lent a hand in the preparation of the nights nosh and of course Josephine who set the run.

For the Hare Josephine and Nosh Chef Sir Rabbit it was always going to be a hard act to follow after the last effort by Miscarriage’s that at this stage may be voted “The Best Trailer Bush Nosh of the Year?”

As promised by the GM Kitchen Bitch the hash in now truly back into gourmet. It was unlimited help yourself food so many had second helpings a long as you got in quick.

Resident food CriTic Lurch Who Somehow had 3 helpings of Steak OBVIOUSLY appreciated the food: “Great Steaks and food .at last back to Hash basics but where was the LETTUCE?”

Well done Sir Rabbit for providing the meal with NO outsourcing from Mrs Rabbit…a Great effort that helped to make this ANOTHER REAL hash night of quality and true HASH nosh in a great Bush location.

DD to:

• Josephine as Hare
• Sir Rabbit as Nosh Chef
• Slug for the Thai coin in the booze money tin.
• GM as centerfold in local magazine
• Cumsmoke for wearing his thongs
• Pile Driver as returning runner from Philippines and losing gift for the GM

Useless Shirt

Awarded by 2 Dogs to Truck Tyres for turning off his lights on the run.

 

Prick of the Week

 

Given by Phantom to Cumsmoke who registered as the unhealthiest POW at last week’s blood pressure run.

 

Report by GM

Yes .this is our GM enjoying the bush walk as he now promise that this year it will be his goal “to get fit with great walks followed by Gourmet food that he will personally supervise.”

GM advised that that next week run will be by Tranny & Bondage at Kurrawa somewhere??

The GM has personally promised to assist to ensure that this run is not as predictable as suspected. Good Luck GM if you can pull this off!!

The Phantom Blood Pressure Run 1934

 

Don’t be scared !!Come and see the doctor and get tested

 

Promoted widely by none other than the Phantom as the first ever Hash Run with a blood pressure and prostate check-up before first class gourmet Nosh .. Would this evening live up to the hype of the self promotion?

• Would Phantom even appear?
• Will Devil be with the Phantom?
• Who will be the Phantom’s doctor?

Will Phantom be able to prove that his generation of GCHHH are true atheletes who achieve the impossible?

The Pre Run warm up

A group of 34 dedicated runners crowded into the new carport recently completed by Phantom.

The group was very restless but one Hasher was seen testing the stength of the new carport structure that Phantom had just completed ..or was he warming us with stretching exercises??

The PRE Run INSTRUCTIONS

The pre-run briefing from Phantom was very detailed with specific directions for all the experienced hashman..this run was certainly having the hallmarks of a well planned and well considered run considering there was only one way in and one way back with a drink stop at the Benowa Tavern.

Phantom then sent the runners on their way those mumbled and hurtful words …“only a moron would get lost”

After last few weeks of the so called Best Inner City Run ,Best Run of the Year , Best Trailer Run , Best Location Run, Best Bush Trailer Run followed by the so called Best Nosh of the Year ,Best Trailer Nosh of the Year this was so far looking a very good for Phantom . Could he pull of the magic double of best quality no outsoucing Nosh and the best City Run with the first Medical Hash run !!

GM called the rabble to order and sent the group on their way at 6.20 pm with the GM’s signature words “ good luck finding the trail’ .

Phantom was heard telling anyone who would listen that he had spent considerable effort in setting this well-marked City Trail….is this possible in Campbell Street?

The HIGH PRESSURE Run

 

This week the we saw a reduced number of experienced runners.Was it the blood pressure test at the end of the run that they were afraid of ?

However 2 Dogs, Botcho , Aussie ,Caustic ,Sir Black Stump, Rug and Miscarriage were quick to exit the group as front runners closely followed by Flasher ,Sir Rabbit ,Truck Tyres, Brewtus, Circumference and Bent Banana. Very soon in the pole position were Sir Prince, Iceman and Aussie.

Phantom’s run was looking in real trouble as the runners tried to leave the bitumen and concrete road in search of the bush & rough with 2 Dogs, Truck Tyres, and Flasher in full flight on the run. Phantom had promised well marked checks to make sure each person went the right way ..well done Phantom but bad luck as no one could find them. Again all were saved by 2 Dogs with his assistance to get them going the right way.

On On was then called several times during the run as the group all moved along the main road and into the drink stop operated by none other than Kwakka and QStick at Benowa Tavern.

Most of the runners this week did do most of full run and it was by all accounts an excellent city run. 2 Dogs and Botcho again excelled as they were back first.Flasher came in a long last as went looking for Rug who came back early and was relaxing with a cold crownie in the corner.

The Low Pressure Walk

 

As always a big group of walkers lined up at the starting gate as Phantom advised to keep a close look out for one of his close neighbours who walks home from work( see above )

This certainly activated the walking group that is getting bigger and slower each week as normally most make little effort to move to far away from the Nosh and Booze area.

Again we see those ex runners, Sir Slab ,Miscarriage Hard On ,VD, Now Loved , ,Shat this week joined by Blue Card ,Weekly and Remy (renamed Dishlika) to the ranks of the dedicated professional permanent walkers.

The dedicated professional walker Skinny Slug (still on his new diet) moved out a brisk pace and kept up a good pace for the long walk to Benowa Tavern.

What great comraderie these brave bunch of Hash Walkers continue to experience.

Meanwhile late arrival Nasty took off on his warrior bike to catch the leaders and damaged the trailer roof with his helmet. As usual Cumsmoke had just dropped in for a quick beer and to hang around the food in the hope of getting first in the food queue so he can quickly line up for thirds.

Detailed Medical Results by Phantom

Phantom was ably assisted by Dr Feelgood ( alias Sir Dr Rabbitt) who performed prostate examinations in his newly constructed operating room in Phantom’s garage.

Full results will be soon released by Phantom when collated and edited by Dr Feelgood

 

Dr Feelgood seemed unable to find the pulse of Rug and Shat.

 

Good advice to Caustic by Dr Feelgood

 

 

Sir Slab with Dr Feelgood

 

The Nosh Menu:

Phantom promised great food after Dr Feelgood has completed his PR examinations.

 

POSITION –POSITION- POSITION in a new purpose built garage is a fitting place to enjoy this fine food for the Gourmet Hash Phantom extravanganza.

Hot sausages

 

 

Burgers to die for

 

Pasta with a sauce made to a recipe not a price.

 

Finger licking good desert

 

Every successful gourmet meal needs great organisation and Phantom rose to the challenge. His planning and execution was exemplary. As promised by Phantom the gourmet in now truly back into hash as he produced the gourmet goods with no outsourcing.

 

Our new Resident food CriTic Dishlika with GREAT EXCITEMENT Was able to give a Detailed report at the ExCELLENT food. he was seen to lick 3 plates totally clean as well as eating Blue Card’s leftovers.

“Great Gourmet food and will be back next week to HASH”

 

Well done Phantom for providing the 4 course meal with minimal outsourcing. A great effort to create a genuine Hash atmosphere that helped to make this ANOTHER REAL hash night of true Gourmet HASH Nosh in a well-planned location.

The Circle

 

 

Yes…this would soon prove to be the most colourful circles so far this year!!

The GM appeared in his Katmandu Hat, Hash Chains, the Moses Staff with a new penile shaped head and long flashy pants accompanied by Dr. Feelgood.

 

DD to:

• Weekly for over talking the RA on 3 occasions. Did he promise Dry Ice next year for Caustic?
• Flasher for doing an amazing effort in returning to run site and looking for Rug.
• Sir Black Stump for wanting to get away early for his Monday night home duties.
• Hashy Birthday for Brett
• VD for losing his new Iphone6 within 1 hour of buying it
• Nasty for karma in using bike on the run and damage to the trailer.
• Miscarriage at the fish-house at Burleigh Heads.

 

Useless T-Shirt

Missing with Veteran.

 

Prick of the Week

Given by Miscarriage to Phantom for his fine effort in creating a gourmet hash meal

Report by GM

GM takes his own penile blood pressure supervised by assistant Doctor VD

 

New Member Inducted

Remy was formally inducted as Dishlika after he gave a cameo performance on how to lick 3 plates clean as a whisker.

Welcome Dishlika ….Hash needs true hashers like you.

 

Gifts for GM

Once again with tears in his eyes saying “these are best gifts so far this year” (as we know he says this every week) the GM accepted more thoughtful gifts from returning International runners Rug and from Slug of some expensive spice crap to add to his food.

Run 1933 Annual GCCH & Brisbane Joint Hash Run

A high attendance of 38 GCHHH gathered at the Shearers Arms Tavern , Ormeau for a joint run with 20++ something desperate Hashers from the Brisbane Hash.

A great effort by Sir Slab and Anchovy who spent several hours setting a special trail and walk. At the pre-run briefing Sir Slab started to explain how the run and walk was planned!

These photos below show how Sir Slab’s initial composure quickly was reduced to a totally confused state of mind!!

“I forget what I actually did ???”… he was heard mumbling to himself.

Then with his arms waving in all directions it was obvious there was only one way we could run if we actually followed the arrows

The Run

With the incentive to run as fast as possible a large group of walkers and runners set off on the well-marked trail.

The run crossed the roadway, up the hill, across the bush, around the park etc etc etc. All rather predictable for the location.

The first GCHH runners back and heavily sweating were 2 Dogs ,Circumference and Botcho.

Sweep Bent Banana noted that Brewtus ,Sir Black Stump and Ballpoint tried very stay in front of the Brisbane runners and were very lucky to be be able to find their way back to the pub so quickly.

Sir Slab gave the unbiased run report.

“Trail was very well marked, lots of checks, on-backs, grassy hills and lots of bush to get around”

It was an excellent run as no runners complained about the distance of the run this week due to the Circle being cut very short. Overall a very well planned run by Sir Slab & Anchovy

 

THE Walkers

This evening the GM actually went on the walk. However this event was a very short lived walk as soon as they got to the top of the first small hill it was unaminously decided the GM , Kwakka and Swindler should return to the pub to make sure all was under control for the runners and walkers when they returned.

Good to Sir AH , Hard On , Shat ,Phantom, Weekly ,Wrongway & Jigsaw all enjoying the slow amble on the walk as they discussed world affairs.

A very well planned walk which all walkers completed for the first time. A well planned walk over the hill, around the park and up the roadway for a total time of 40 minutes over the 3km. Well done again to this group of finely tuned athletes.

The Pub Location

What can you say when its only $14 for meals,beer and gambling money !!

Great value for money and excellent location.

Cautic was the big winner of the night as with his $3 cash injection he hit the jackpot!..The jackpot money was immedaitly donated to Hash Consolidated Revenue by Caustic…thanks Caustic as this is very welcome funds to be added to the Hierachy Xmas Fund.

The CIRCLE

Sir Rabbit is obviously trying to de-clutter his house in his later years. He is well known for all the hash items he has accumulated over a lifetime. He recently found the Inaugural 1971 Brisbane Hash Cup hidden under his bed. We wonder what else is under there after 45 years.

With great pride in very formal ceremony and dressed in the appropriate Formal Hash attire Sir Rabbit returned it to the rightful owners of the Brisbane Hash.

Icings

The RA as always is desperate to use his power and on the lookout for a new candidates. It appear that as Weekly was able to keep a low profile he extracted his vengeance on a repetitious basis on Flasher and Ballpoint.

Bent Banana and Weekly were very lucky to be able stay under the radar and were saved from another icing from the deranged vengeance of Caustic.

Useless T- Shirt Award

Veteran tried to give the Useless award to BlueCard. By unanimous resolution of the Hash circle it was decided that Veteran keep it for another week.

Prick of the Week

Still missing in action somewhere?

Report by GM

GM in full Hash Formal dress and his trademark Mankini called all to order and apologized for running late as his waxing appointment had taken longer than usual.

He advised that the only announcement due to meal the waiting in the pub was that the Hash Formal Cocktail party had now closed. Makes you wonder why he got so dressed up for such an announcement.
