The run that was: Hare Gargoyle (the Moari )

On a brilliant day the hare staked his claim to a prime piece of real estate on the slopes of table mountain watched over by the twelve apostles. Pipe-track is above us and the upper cable station a headlift away. With the sea below the table was set for a run with the utmost potential. Rumour has it though that the Moari could’nt see the upper cable station as he did not have enough neck-mobility to see so high.

The run was explained and the walkers left to the care of Boblet – the co-hare – a poor choice in itself on any day, but then he was still plaqued by a bout of piles, pox.and partial paralysis. But in the true spirit of Hash he perservered forth with gritty resolve. Lady Hare (TNT ) was at first a doubtful starter for this run/walk. But then Madame Kerriekoek and Sir Braainaaier arrived and then the footrace was on. Both however threw in the towel at the first sighting of a slight incline way in the distance. They returned by mutual agreement with both their reputations untainted

An appearance by our visiting Zim/CT hasher in the shape of Tinkerbell greatly added to the international flavour of this run. Old Bob back home does’nt have to fear a thing. With a pair of shoulders the like of Tinkerbell’s around, he can load all his problems onto him.

Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum were also there. Can they natter! You’d swear they hav’nt seen each other for years. No wonder Suckface stayed home. There’s no peace like home. And then there was newly christened “Dutch Cap” the travel agent.She floats over dale and hill without even breathing heavily. Mind you some of us are most grateful to be breathing heavily since it is far better than not breathing at all. And then there was Padams putting his bionic hip to the ultimate test - hill running. Passed with flying colours. By the way, did you notice his jazzy after – run pants?

A great run, gorgeous day and brilliant sunset. Thanks Gargoyle (only for the run, of course) So glad you could also see the sun set!

Lady employee complains to her boss about a fellow male employee. “Whenever I walk pass him, he says “your hair smells nice’ she complains. “That does’nt sound to me like sexual harassment, says the boss. “ It sounds more like a compliment, says the boss. ‘Yes”, says the employee. “But not if he’s a midget!”

ON-ON GANDHI
