25th Anniversary Run
It was the classic smother. “Pumpkin” said Old Boar to Codpiece “Could you please make me a red dress so I can be Queen of the Night. I want it in red organza with strategic sequinning, coquettishly see-through but with demure school-girly pleating. And a boat-neck neckline rather than plunging cos I don’t want to look too available. I want to wear it to a place called Oxford.”
‘Grouse’, thought Codpiece, ‘he’s really taking the Red Dress Run seriously! And it gives me something to do.’
How come then, the week after the RDR, he and the dress flew up to Sydney for the Gay Mardi Gras? Trouble was, he arrived a week early. “Buggar” he said, (as an exclamation rather than a verb we hope) as he forlornly wandered up Oxford St looking for other hairy-chested, middle aged, balding school girls in red organza. Finding none, he skedaddled back to Melb so he could re-mark Codpiece’s trail. For the RA had finally pulled his finger out and made it rain, unfortunately, all over Codpiece’s chalk and flour marks.
Photos were taken, some poor bastard minding his own business took the shots. Fair amount of time spent by technicians setting up – smile was really hurting.
There was a drink stop personned by Flem and It Wasn’t Me – big bucket of Hash Flash – there they were on the corner of Sturt St freezing their bits off but they stayed to the bitter end waiting for the thirsty serious athletes who did the whole trail.
Trail went around bit of the Lake, bit of Fawkner Park, bit of Botanic Gardens, bit of Sth Yarra, bit of Sth Melb – thought we’d never get home – trail was 8.4 km. Mothball and Udder thought it was 4.8 km and nicked home early. SOAS rated it 19/25 but reckoned it wasn’t as good as his run last week.
Egg & Bacon Pie brought egg and bacon pie, even though she was sick and went home early, Cheesecake brought cheescake, Codpiece brought giant sausages that could have done with some codpieces and everyone else brought nibbles, salads, chicken, desserts, icecreams – there was absolutely heaps with plenty left over – only God and Klingon know what Chicko did in the car on the way home.
