RUN 2442 – 14/11/16 HARE – HORSE CO-HARE – PITT
Monday night was a night of highlights and milestones which are listed as follows:
- HORSE’S 40th year of PH³ membership
- HIGH FIRE THREAT IN THE HILLS
- HOTTEST DAY FOR THE YEAR – 38°
- SUPER FULL MOON
- WEST COAST INVITED (RENTA CROWD)
The run was late starting as most of the committee were suffering from altitude sickness in upper Mundaring.
After a brief dispute between PHANTOM and STEWIE over the location of the walkers’ map, we were underway. The map of course looked like one of HORSE’S bowel ex-rays. The condition of the map explains why PHANTOM had to back track to get the walkers home. RUMPOLE with his efficient G.P.S. led CANS along the correct trail to the bucket.
Fortunately the weather had cooled down as the back runners returned, with SIR KNOB, RELUCTANT and CRAYFISH heading straight for the bucket.
The ON ON was commenced and the drawing of the raffle by HORSE was subject to controversy. Some members will contact the Crime and Corruption Commission as the majority of winners were committee members – some of who didn’t even buy a ticket.
BAR CODE was relieved of the bell after two weeks of non-ringing. The bell was awarded instead to RUMPOLE for lack of ice in the bucket.
West Coast had a couple of down-downs – I can’t remember what for!
On the run BAREFOOT injured his knee after trying to force it into the gravel track. Hope it’s nothing serious.
The circle didn’t hear much about the Rotto weekend – everyone must have behaved and gone to bed early.
HORSE picked a good location with plenty of parking and light and well away from the public. Food was great and as a special treat for 40 years of hashing, dessert was served.
NEON gave the hare a score of 9.2.
Great job HORSE with a bit of help from PITT.
