Run #934 – When you have a thirst

Date: 4/10/2009

Hares:  Runs Well (running) & Sarsy (not running)

Run Report:  Blah Blah

“Where for art thou half-way beer stop?” cried one hasher at a hold.  “There be no stopeth,” declared the hare, “for we finish at a brewery and wish to make haste,” and the pack was confused for it wanted beer both now and in the future.  [Hops 13:09]

It is official.  Sarsy can organise a piss-up in a brewery.  When he’ll learn to tie his shoelaces remains one for the bookies.  Yes, for those of you who missed it, there was a Tiger Brewery run where those wonderful sponsors, Cambodia Brewery Limited – suppliers of bountiful amounts of Anchor – made the annual mistake of letting us into the brewery.

I’m going to have to work hard here to remember what went on as with unusual foresight I left the wheeled menace home and joined the plebian majority on laan-thom.  From hazy recollection the run consisted of two holds and no halfway in a valiant bid to have the run over and done with and the drinking started in good time.

Runs Well showed his usual impatience as hare, spending a good percentage of the time at the front.  Despite there being only two holds, Wannacracker still wandered off to gain advantage.  There seem to be some recollections involving Leaking Duck and STD walking and I definitely remember Herring Choker struggling towards the end however maintaining a decent pace.  I also can remember Yap Yap, though that’s probably because we’re married.  May Not turned up at the end of the run on his scooter looking like an extra from a Sophia Laurent movie.

I’m not sure what happened to the walkers, however since I bumped into some of them at the brewery I assume they made it back.

There was a circle, so I assume that GM Scoutmaster made it to the run.  The hares ended up on the ice however since it was a brewery run they weren’t there for too long.  I believe the main crime consisted of the lack of a halfway.  A rather tall American virgin joined the circle with his shirt off so I left mine on when I had to join him in the circle so he wouldn’t feel bad.  My kindness knows no bounds.  Beaver Shot joined us from Thailand once again and Piglet brought some guy (Mark, Matt, Michael?) from work….. so she claims.

We made our way into the brewery where Herring Choker was chugging back his 8^th beer having decided to forgo festivities for the brewery bar.   This left us all with a sense of injustice that we did our best to drown out with ice Tiger.  Sarsy was seen clutching a quarter yard glass at one stage and I heard something about Isaac having to be restrained from swan diving into the vats whilst on the brewery tour. No Meat No Balls from Frankfurt was in German heaven and even Laverne was spotted throwing them back.  Germinator was keen to show she really was from Darwin and Little Willy was seen giggling into his mug.

I’m now rather confident that GM Scoutmaster was present as I seem to recall leaving Restaurant 294.  How I arrived there remains a mystery.
