Harriers set to hash it out

Ian Hendry

LOOKS like we doing run 2394 again this week but from a different address, 300 Patton Street, where I lived many moons ago with our hares Hook and Sticks.

After a stroll around the south, we arrived back to where the cold drinks were and a lovely fire bucket ablaze when the GM called hash hush.

It took awhile for the chattering to stop.

With order called, the hares had their drinks and then it was onto special runs, dinner for two 11, Furkin Judy 131.

I’m away for a week and there’s no quiz lift, your good GM.

Story one: The naked gardener started working at the Lifeline tip shop but had to get a Working with Children Check so off they went to Lifeline in Argent Street to get the paperwork. After arguing with the little old lady volunteer and getting a bit upset, she blurted out ‘you are at St Vinnies, not Lifeline’.

Story two: Our resident flasher bike rider crasher is still signing on as ‘Splashback’, not ‘Flashback’. Get it right, young lady.

Story three: Our resident Facebook publisher for the Workies’ meat draw has done it again, publishing the same results two weeks in a row.

A lot of people thought they won two weeks in a row, only to be told Fang stuffed up again.

Story four: Nanny Rooter was complaining to the wife that the local paper hasn’t published the job application for the Workies’ new general manager. After threatening to ring them and abusing them, his wife said that’s The Advertiser, not the local paper.

Jokes were at a premium with the winners being Frog and Fanny Flapper.

Next week, we are at Fang and Pixie Anne’s house at 47 Morgan Street.

See you all there at 6pm sharp.
