The Vancouver Hash House Harriers Run No.1243 at 1815, on 06-September-2010 by Impaler and Dangler at Bridgeview Park, North Vancouver Our
GMs laid this week's run; which is to say Impaler planned it, runned
it, floured it and finished it. Dangler provided moral, immoral and beer
check support, he being determined not to enter the forest. Of course,
it was The Long Weekend Holiday, and so support was tempered by the
excesses of the many who didn't come, and the courage of the few who
overcame their hangovers and general lethargy to make an appearance. The
weather was overcast but lightening, and not a drop of rain feel from
start to finish. Impaler set the run up the East side of the Lynn,
emerging at the head of Hastings Creek Park at Ross Road and curving
West and then South back towards the start. This is an interesting area
and until we started to move West the run could have gone either way:
across the Lynn, or where we actually went. A
quick jog down the hill, through the neighbourhoods, brought us to the
beer check at Waldorf School. Chips were munched, and happy hashers
slurped down cider, beer and juice to their hearts content. Dangler
and YFI provided a ferry service down to Bridgeview Park, and we
enjoyed Mountme's cherries, hand-picked by virgins from his very own
trees. How time flies, his daughter is off to Uni - blimey! Shagger
extracted beer from his vehicle and we cheerfully imbibed a few bevies
of Storm's finest (according to some). Slippery Dick produced ancient
Hash Trashes, hidden underground in a locked vault for 20 years (and
smelling just like it). Low
Blow produced an oyster knife from her purse, and Slippery Dick offered
her some prairies oysters. Pylon looked terribly well groomed, rather
like a golfer - perhaps he is our own Tiger Woods?! Porno Prick received
the numerous hash trashes for no particular reason. The bald mofoes
were called in to celebrate their Ka. The
hares received the appropriate down-downs and we then retired to the
Bridge Between for sustenance, only to find that it closes on Mondays.
The buggers! We made our way to Seymours, losing several hashers en
route, but gaining the delightful Kreme Filled (worth a dozen men). Next weeks run is somewhere, but I forget exactly which location, or who the hare is. Oh, well, check-out the website... On On ! |
