Circle Report #1878
The Hares
Wet n Wild, Sneaky Comer
The �thank heavens school is over, I can set a run now� belated birthday run
Vigilante Drive
The Run.
Well I may be a little biased but I thought this was easily the run of the year. Starting at picturesque Kent Ridge Park, with a lovely view of oil refinery plumes in the distance, and the knowledge that where you go down, you must come back up again. Very creatively, the hares started the run with a circle check. Not everyone was impressed by this creative maneuver and most stood around whinging. After a bit of swearing and cursing, those who wanted to run went looking for the on and eventually found it down the stairs towards Normanton Park. A T-check at the back of Normanton Park put paid to thoughts of running over to Portsdown, leading to a ton of confusion around the beautiful black and whites on Winchester Road. Then a long climb up the hill (disrupting a wedding photo or two along the way, then over to Alexandra Road for a long short split. Long runners were further confused by a circle check on Lock Road before heading back over the AYE and onto the railway line canal, which has become quite overgrown since the last time we were down there. Back by Portsdown flyover and Science Park with just a short hill climb to finish. It was very very hot and the runners got a work out.
Circle Report:
What did you think of the run?
Run of the year? No, ok, well goodish run anyway.
Next week:
Chestnut Ave by birthday boy Comes Quietly. Note this is meeting point 4, pass under the BKE to get to the run site.
Virgins:
Brian and Dustin the Navy boys were deflowered tonight. (And there were plenty of willing Harriets around to help). Our virgins do show a little inexperience by linking arms to take their down downs, taking a clue from the GM and her husband the charge before.
Returnees:
Hopeless
Visitors:
No Good, CooChiCoo, Boom Boom, King Lear, Bagless Too, Stiff, Stiffener, and navy boys Larry, Stuard, and Paul.
Lipstick:
Oh wait a moment, the GM has no lipstick and asks Comes Quietly to help her out and get some from the car. While we are waiting, Navy Boys and Father Anus are accused. Shoe Shopper wants to know if the Navy Boys could take their shirts off rather than getting lipstick?
The Dick:
No dick and no tits tonight.
AOB ?
Sybil reports that she was running tonight with Confucious and Zipp. But all of a sudden Confucious disappeared, later to be seen emerging from bushes with King Lear. Then, later in the run, she headed off with Blood Shit. What was going on?
Stiffy wonders if the committee have things under control? Introducing King Lear to the Assistant Hash Cash, she was struggling with his name and settled on Martin King Lear. No, Lethal Weapon, Martin is his real name and King Lear is his hash name!
Lethal Weapon stays in the circle and says she has an excuse�she is Tasmanian. So she wants all Tasmanians into the circle to have a drink with her. The call of �one Australian drinks, all Australians drink� was answered with �Tasmanians aren�t Australians�.
Wet n Wild asks Boo where next week�s run is? He doesn�t know, he says. �Well how come you have already marked yourself on the attendance sheet for next week then?� Here�s to the premature comer, he�s true blue.
Shoe Shopper has been whispering in the scribe�s ear all night about how the Navy boys should be taking their shirts off. Give her a note for desperation.
Stiffy asks the ciccle what the cure for fever is? Apparently it is NOT to put socks in the freezer and then get your partner to sleep in frozen socks. On in Wet Pet for voodoo medicine.
Father Anus recognizes one of the Navy boys, Larry. Apparently Larry was here last time 7 years ago, just before the SARS outbreak. Now, he is finally back, and what do we have, Swine Flu. Give the contagious one a note. For reasons best known to herself, the GM takes Larry�s shirt off (did she get a whisper from Shoe Shopper)?
Zipp tells us that she normally gets a lift to hash with Dances with Kerbs and Sybil. Apparently Dances with Kerbs is usually running a little late, so it was no surprise that tonight, Sybil and Zipp were waiting outside Dances with Kerbs residence. Zipp decided to use the time to get changed and ready for hash, and while juggling shoes, apparel and phone, Sybil asked if she should give DWK a call? Yes please, says Zipp, here�s my phone. Sybil takes the phone, walks under the window, and yells, �JJ, we�re here and ready to go�. Ummm, what was the phone for?
Wet n Wild wants to know what Tiger Lily is famous for. Losing the trail, the circle replies. Well apparently that�s not the only thing she has lost, she left the hareline in the taxi on the way to the committee meeting this week. Give forgetful a note, and please remind her if you put your name down to do a run! I guess the hareline is open again.
Wet Pet was running up the long hill with King Lear who chose the moment to point out that �mine�s much shorter than that�. Give the inadequate one a note.
We had to cross the road at one point in the run, reported Tiger Lily. At one point, the lights were flashing orange, which meant the cars were supposed to stop for pedestrians. Did they stop for Tiger Lily? No. But along comes Too Easy and suddenly all the cars stop. Give the traffic stopper a note.
Father Anus reported that he was well known for looking after virgins. However, his services were not required tonight as one of our virgins (Dustin or Brian, not sure) seemed very well prepared for the hash, checking, calling onon, and generally seeming to know what he was doing. Give a note to the experienced virgin.
Suzee Wong has Father Anus in the circle for stomping his feet as a kind of Irish salute to the sailor boys.
Boo asks the sailors and Sybil in for a traditional song �Me no likey British Sailor, Yankee pay $5 more�
Larry comes in to report that he was raped by the GM 7 years ago, and since the GM wanted his shirt tonight, the least she can do is swap shirts. For some reason, Wet n Wild is a little reluctant.
Hopeless wonders if Sneaky Comer has lost his manhood. Out on trail, he found a couple of balls. Sneaky Comer does a quick check, maybe they are his.
No, Loose Change realizes what has happened. The balls actually belong to Father Anus, that is why he has been stomping all night.
On on to the 99 Seafood on South Buona Vista Road. Sneaky Comer is astounded that we get EXACTLY 20 people to the dinner!
