4 - 9 -'17   Run 1840  103 Cuthbert's Rd

The recently retired NUM NUM "stepped up to stand-in" for
the "Lower the Bar, stand-in, stand-in Hash", for a very
chilly run/walk round the streets of Alfredton.
FOP thanked NUMMY for taking the place of the ailing
SPARTACUS (but is he really only love-sick for his beloved
PUSBUCKET?), then welcomed back from OS travels,
HEAD HUNTER & QUICK DICK.
NUMMY told us the run was close to 5k's, with a couple
of On-backs, & 'pretty flat'. 16 starters tonight (7 walkers)
& the 'late' HALF A BAR made the 17 total.
SHAFTED was 1st back to the drink-stop, claiming he'd 
shown everyone a clean pair of heels.
FOP gave NUMMY the 'stand-in Hare' drink, then TEFLON
for run No 96 (opposite of 69), welcomes back to 
HEAD HUNTER & QUICK DICK, then DUMB & DUMBER for 
the 'old man' scaling the ladder to fire up the party lights.
Stand-in Screw PEBBLES gave the run a 'Silver Star' 
for being short & sharp, with 'no hills'.
Stand-in Sergeant SHAFTED's 1st charge was for PEBBLES
when he came to a T intersection, saying, " we'll turn the
corner here".... to the tune of "You're stupid, you're stupid".
HEAD HUNTER & QUICK DICK visited Hash in Oslo, & as 
they are from down-under these days, had to stand on their
heads for down downs. HEAD HUNTER was quick to give
us a demo, with legs in the air, but then the thought was,
"do we have to pour it in now from the bottom end?"
SHAFFY called out GLIDER, THE BILL & SS as the 
septagenarians of Ballarat Hash, with 120 yrs of Hash
between them, but no charge, then NUM charged DUMB
for the gear he turned himself out in tonight.
SHAFTED then wanted DUMBER to explain why the new
area was called 'Lucarse', & THE BILL came in to explain
about the 'Lucas Girls', & being the place where he'd met
the bride.
D & C took a charge for the 'fasting' Katrina, & why didn't
anyone want to take her home from Hash last week?
DUMBER charged PEBBLES for his touchy / feely text 
about the nice swans & lovely fluffy little cygnets around 
the lake, then FOP had a cryptic charge for all the Hash
Ladies, not having any idea about carrying round
'heavy / unused bags'  ...... boom boom!! 
NUMMY congratulated GLIDER for his 40 years of
Hashing, & that 'irreverant' HEAD HUNTER immediately
reached for the song sheet, to chant the "Him, him .....
...... feck him", then DUMBER charged D & C for the 
spelling of Shitty Trail ... (or whatever!!).
FOP had a charge for SHAFTED, (with the bread roll
pulled down over the top of his stubby) ......... 
said "it reminds me of the brothers at Catholic
Primary saying, put your mouth around this".
The circle disbanded with another Dad Gag ..... What's
a dog with wings called? ......... Linda McCartney.

Next weeks run - GLIDER's from Bunch of Grapes.

Thanks to stand-in Hare NUMMY, for the stand-in venue, 
& the great stand-in food. Pasta, curry, rice, 
quiche, rolls & a 1 foot high creamed sponge.
