26 Runners braved the barren Hidden Valley Speedway car and the myriad sandflies for one of the last cool runs before the annual Wet Season buildup. Browneye sent us away at 6.01pm through the dusty denuded car park towards the City. The trail meandered along dirt tracks to the entrance to the Explosives Store. Here, your scribe and the walkers branched off to the right and followed a sealed road back to the Cars. (the Trailer was missing in action) Walkers were back by 6.30pm. The rest of the pack dribbled in until the last runner at 6.50pm. A bit of escarpment and a creek were mentioned.

BACK AT THE TRAILER
Well, reader, of course there was no effing trailer. Goose had brought along a new runner, Hughie alias Ferret who was a visiting RA from some unpronounceable town near Pontypool Wales, and was dressed in his RA Robes and carrying a Wisdom Artifact.

THE BOOZE
VB cans and Cascade Light cans – first time your Scribe has seen Cascade Light in cans.

THE CIRCLE
GM, Gash allowed our visiting RA to start Proceedings at 7.10pm. Hugie/Ferret produced his Wisdom Artifact (see photo) which has been handed down through 4 centuries of Welsh RA’s to seek out Hashers with wisdom. All the nominee had to do was make the little windmill on the artifact spin around. The most wise of Darwin Hash, our GM, Gash had a go and was covered in white powder. For this, Ferret was iced.

DOWN DOWNS Steakout had Jimmy (Steakout’s next door neighbour and avid fisherman) up for a down down for losing his $800.00 rod and reel while fishing with Steakout last week. Animal tried to fine Steakout for advising him to through his palm fronds over the fence, then being caught by the Council. – Not Guilty

New runners – Nil
Returning Runners – Not Yet, Jane.
Visitors – Ferret from Wales (Who may be around for a while)
Chook Fucker – Furburger – Over in East Timor riding the Tour de Timor with Full Bottle and Sexon.

Late fine were for Pat for staking his leg. A naming of Tarzan and Stakein were proposed and rejected. I think Quarteroff got a down down for not running but I am not sure, I was too busy writing down his info on the Tour De Piss.
The Circle finished at 1930hrs

THE TUCKER
Very nice Spaghetti Bol. With bread, butter and cheese. NO CHILI SAUCE FOR THE SECOND WEEK RUNNING!!!!!!
