And so it was,

The occasion of the third memorial run to CRACKERS, our illustrious 1000th run GM

We gathered on a typical cold Canberra winters Monday night at the Gungalin town park on Yarrabi pond.
An evil wind was blowing from the Nor nor east, the hare had been broadcasting the trail on social media
all day in case it got blown away.

We were graced with the presence of QUEEN LATRINE and INCIDER, BETTY BOOP and McTRASH who
had recently returned from Europe.

The trail was advertised as “Robust” however the trail was only marked with single barbed arrows. There
was immediate Conjecture as to whether a single barb actually qualifies as robust marking???.

This conversation continued on into the night, as the runners took off and did a large circumnavigation of
the small water feature that is Yarrabi pond. The walkers did a smaller circle but we all ended up at the
Bizant street park for a quite marvellous drink stop. The warm punch went down a treat and the 4 bags of
Chips were too much for a ravenous, shortcutting, CRASH and BURN.

The structure of the leadership group was brought into question as the GM excused herself from the
Proceedings to attend to the hash mash. CRASH and BURN immediately attempted to apply “Diplomatic
Immunity” to himself and was, naturally, shouted down. ANKLE BITER got the fire bucket glowing red for
the circle, for which we were VERY grateful as the cold started to infiltrate its way through the eight layers
of clothing we were wearing.

QUEEN LATRINE gave a long and verbose run report. (Finally managed to slip that word into notes - ED)
And scored it a .69/10, BETTY BOOP scored the walk 10/10 as it was set by a Harriet.
FRIZZY LIZZIE wore a onesie with enough room in the “Back yard” for a family of Somalians
QUEEN LATRINE was charged for gobbing on and stating that “We don’t do it like that in Wagga” just
one to many times.

GREASE NIPPLE 929 runs, FRIZZY 298
ANKLE BITER received the dummy spit award from CRASH and BURN who received the Piss Poor
performance award from ANKLE BITER who was then presented the Prick of the week vest by CRASH
and BURN.

I think I got that right.

It was a small circle tonight. There are still a few hashers overseas (Did I mention I’ve just got back from
Europe myself?) But we managed to achieve the objective and remembered CRACKERS.

A fine toast of single malt scotch whiskey was drunk to the memory of this good friend, entertainer and
Long term Capital Hasher.

POP TARTs name was mentioned during the evening but I forget the context.
