Greetings Hashers,

 

A great run for Grey Cup, I'm sure we can say it was enjoyed by all, especially as I was the only one to go through the ice by MacArthur Island!!!

 

We do have some pics going up on the website shortly (www.khhh.javachat.biz), so check the Hash Flash.  Your latest Hash Data is also up there, along with the details on this Sunday's Santa Hat Run from Choo Choo & P-On-On's lovely abode - check the Hareline.

 

If you missed the last run, or would like to reminisce, you can always find the Hash Trash on the website, plus I've pasted a copy below.

 

See you Sunday for a fun run, and some delish Chicken Chili!!!

 

On On,

 

Topsy.

 

Run #47 – 3^rd Annual Grey Cup Run

Sunday November 28^th 2010

Hares:  Nose Hare & Topsy

 

 

 

On a sad Grey Cup Sunday in Rider Nation, the sun still shined, and your faithful RA produced warm enough temps to melt some of the nasty sidewalk ice.  This made for a smooth get-away from Chez Nosehare as a strong Pack of 24 Hashers headed off for a pre-game workout!!

 

The KH3 was graced by little Lucy’s first appearance on the hash, and was saddened her parents, Crap Shirt & Horny Wallaby, couldn’t get her stroller through the snow on some of the side streets.  They then opted to hop in their vehicle and motor to MacArthur Island Park where they happened on Topsy at the exercise machines – oh to be Auto Hashing, and caught for it by the RA – the shame!!!  Check Auto Hashing on the website – “a heinous violation of hash etiquette”, and well worth a beer or two.

 

That being said, Nosehare and Topsy did set a great trail that introduced some physical fitness, besides the up and downs of the run.  No Names Linda and Jacques enjoyed the trail with their bag dog so much, that they have expressed interest in the next run.  No Name James is sure to attend also.  Jacqueline was present to keep Topsy on time, and she is now one run from receiving her Hash Name.  Bare Ass flew under the radar and eluded all attention – in spite of staying behind to ensure all the food was cooked and prepped for the hungry Pack – thanks Bare Ass!!!

 

Shrewdly, the Hares sent the pack scurrying for the hills before doubling back down Desmond to Tranquille.  Across strode the pack, all the way to Happyvale.  The Hares just loved the name, so down Happyvale we went.  At the bottom of Singh, the Pack split with the short trail Hashers following the Rivers Trail and crossing the bridge to MacArthur Island and blazing a trail across the baseball field parking lots.

 

The long trail Hashers had the pleasure of dropping off the end of Singh, and into the canal…although it was frozen.  A well-laid (if I do say so myself) Intersection on the far side of the ice kept the Hashers on their toes, with the FRB’s taking in a well marked “X”, before continuing to run & slide around the canal, admiring the Island up to their left.  From all reports, the Pack was able to stay on the ice, unlike the Hare (Topsy) who dropped through it…3 times J.  Around the bend, a lovely Hash View of the Thompson glittering in the sun left all awed in wonder (over the top Topsy!!)  There, the long trail rejoined the River’s Trail and it rejoined with the Short Trail at the Exercise Stations.  By then, Horny Wallaby had been drafted to oversee one station, while Topsy monitored another.  From MacArthur, it was a short trail before the Near Beer greeted the Pack and sent them On Home.

 

An enjoyable run, said the pack, though some enjoyed it more that others.  Pit Bull left a special deposit on the trail, talk about marking your territory.  Could be why he actually walked this Hash – though he was certainly lighter when he was done.  His story is he slipped and fell and broke a few ribs – more likely it was karma after proposing the name, “Ass for Brakes” for his lovely wife - Ass for Brakes was smiling way too much.  Lost & Found enjoyed the run despite the car crash on the way to the run.  Sadly, No Name Becky had to boogie early as that four letter word (w@#k) had to be attended to.  No Names, Mira, Sean, Heather, Alana and Tasha also made a short day of it, with other engagements to attend, but seemed to enjoy their workout. 

 

It was an eventful Circle: Lucy’s mum, Horny Wallaby, did a great job as Assistant Beermaster, and of standing by while No Name Jonathan was named.

 

Here are the Down Downs:

 

Nosehare & Topsy – The Hares

 

Jacques, Linda & James (Jim) - Returnees

 

Pitbull – Running his 20^th Kamloops Hash

 

Pitbull – Code Brown – leaving a deposit on trail

 

Horny Wallaby – Auto Hashing

 

No Name Jonathan – Auto Hashing

 

On Her Knees – Using Choo Choo’s “Alternate” name

 

Choo Choo – Not noticing what On Her Knees was saying

 

Loggerhead – Sitting in the Circle

 

No Name Jonathan – Now Named “Crap Shirt”

 

No shock over the naming of No Name Jonathan, but he still needs a Hash Shirt – be sure to contact Choo Choo, Crap Shirt!!! 

 

Following the Circle, a great feast was had, a delightful array of appies, nicely rounded out by Nosehare’s chilli and Eager Beaver’s Bosnian treats – thanks to all for contributing to a fantastic spread.  Kiss Hash left early when the Alouettes had all but clinched the title.  Free & Easy and Loggerhead left early as they sensed the outcome of the Grey Cup, and wished to suffer privately.  P-On-On came just for the game – possibly a closet Alouettes fan(?).  Lost & Found and Eager Beaver won some coin in the pool.  Road Apple graced us with her appearance and is looking forward to next year’s Sorrento run in August, and plans to bring her horse.

 

Thanks again to Nosehare for hosting this year’s edition of the Grey Cup Hash Run, a great success.

 

A short turnaround to our next run – Sunday December 12^th – check the Hareline for details.

 

On On – Topsy & Choo Choo.
