Another glorious Pink Run was hosted by Eveready and Karaoke
in Lotopa. A rather warm day for a run, but the Hash turned out in numbers,
gloriously festooned in pink as well as pink-related regalia. Crime had set the
run, and we suspected little as he was not noticeably dripping. Off we went
down the Papasea road to the main airport road. Turning left with no one
checking the trail took us to the next road turning left (Tulaele street I
think) and we proceeded straight to the Talimatau road. There was a turnoff
over the ford for the walkers but not all took it as it was rather slippery.
The main trail then turned down left and on home. So the walkers did a square
and the runners a rectangle. Godfather is overseas, so Lewinsky had procured (he
claimed) somewhat larger than usual nuts.
Eveready took on the role as GM, and called the newbies into
the circle. These were Vanya and Morten from Norway (guests of Witch Doctor),
Steve and Gillian (new at Apia Fish Exporters), Pologo and Jill (from Hawaii,
cousins of Eveready) who had been brought by someone called Dolf. Down down for
the GM.
The retreads were also numerous – Screamer (busy packing),
Twin Peaks (excruciating medicals), Mr Whippy (babysitting), Crash Bandicoot
(looking after Cougar), Offspring (researching the Kama Sutra), Junior (math
test) and Cougar (tried to blend into the furniture).
Celebrity Awards went to Vai Vai (letter to the editor)
taken by that other, elderly antipodean Murray, Gayboy (headline about the
Michelangelo of buttock injections) taken by Lewinsky, and Poumuli for missing
the photo of IRA.
No shoe inspector was sent around, and Poumuli avoided an
award as he had to drink twice from his shoes in Vanuatu where they strain the
beer first through your sock! But Twin Peaks and Mr Whippy were both found
guilty as charged.
This Day In History Awards went to the Norwegians (1472 –
Orkney and Shetland are pawned by Norway to Scotland in lieu of a dowry for
Margaret of Denmark), Cockblocker (1649 – The Second Battle of Guararapes takes
place, effectively ending Dutch colonization efforts in Brazil), Slippery (1739
– Richard Palmer is identified at York Castle, by his former schoolteacher, as
the outlaw Dick Turpin – a slippery dick indeed) and Offspring (India beat
South Africa in cricket for the first time in history).
The GM had several awards ready but none of his victims were
present so he opened it up for nominations. Sassygirl BJ started off with a
tribute to the two hash meres who had come to her aid even on Valentine’s Day
and installed her new trash can – Witch Doctor and Imelda da Welda. The GM
noted there were many returnees to Hash, but that one in particular had come to
all the Pink Runs and had always implored the GM to sell him his motorbike, and
after he relented had never come back. For some reason Poumuli was deemed to be
the closest living relative.
POD nominated IRA for the Indecent Exposure Award for
stripping down and swimming at the Marina during a business function. Poumuli
nominated Crime for the Alzheimers Award, for forgetting about the road side
change and setting the run with traffic not against. POD pointed out that Crash
was supposed to have helped but also forgot so he joined in.
Poumuli and the GM nominated Lewinsky. No reason. He was
joined by Hobbes and Mrs Hobbes who had skipped the retreads. Murray had
stressed over the need to wear pink and was upset that many had not made
similar efforts so Screamer and Titty
Galore were given the award.
Poumuli nominated CB for not owning up to being a retread,
while Sassy nominated Poumuli for usurping her role as maestro. The Hare and
the Hosts were saluted – Eveready, Karaoke, Cougar and Crime. We also sang
Happy Birthday for Cougar and Junior.
Next week’s run is will be at IRA’s in Palisi, then the week
after at Sassy’s for the Return of the Son of The Bitch – watch the blog.
On On
Poumuli, IKA Slit
