Run 1528, 17 December 2012 Hare: GG Venue: Fairbalm Reserve/Brookville Gardens, Toorak

Well this is going to take some remembering. It is now 1st February and I am trying to read my notes from 19th December. I think I had had a few beers by the time I started writing the notes and since that time I have been on six weeks holiday. I can’t remember much about the run other than I remember Pog arriving just about the time we set off. He was hobbling around after completely wearing out one of his knee joints through excess marathon running. I remember warning him about this a few weeks earlier. “Everything in moderation” I had told him, but did he listen? No, he went to Antigua, London and ran marathons and then to Alice Springs where I think the leg gave up and told him in no uncertain terms that he was 53 years old and should heed Dr General’s warnings in future. As I remember the run was about the normal length through the streets of Toorak and we were back at Brookfield gardens before you could say “GG’s a Dickhead”. The run report which was given by Udder Idjit says it all, “ it was the best run since last week”, Trickie Dickie kept up indicating it wasn’t too long or hilly, Klingon’s dog was up front, which as Klingon is usually tied to his dog he wasn’t far behind and new runner “Pat” was apparently front running. Back at the barbeques in Brookfield Gardens I remember the beer was cold and the rissoles were hot. The circle was officiated by “It Wasn’t me” who promptly dobbed me in to write up this drivel and Sergeant GG. Down downs were allocated to Pog, Gargoyle and Lethal as returning runners. Udder Idjit did the run report and scored it as 1036 out of 1546. Not quite sure how the scoring system works and I am not sure Udder Idjit knows either but what the hell, it was quite a good run anyway. Pat without a name, was still unnamed but a couple of reasonable suggestions were offered by the pack… these were Cow Pat and Off Pat. I can only assume that the offending hashman did not smell badly enough to justify either option. Congratulations and a drink were offered to E&B for 990 runs. Charges for obscure offences were made on Pog ( advertising LH3 worldwide), Monkeyboy, E&B, Prince, Lethal, Trickie Dickie and Uncle tom cobbly and all. Some were even given down downs because they complained of being thirsty. GG must be going soft in his old age. Finally I was made to drink out of my running shoe… “because it looked new”. Thanks to LH3 my suitcase on arrival in Ho Chi Minh City smelt like a barmaid’s apron. Well that’s all I can remember or decipher from my crappy notes, so if that is not enough detail feel free to add your own interpretation of run number 1528. On On General
