LAKESIDE HASH HOUSE HARRIERS HASH TRASH

Run 951 October 9, 2002

Venue: Rose Hotel, Fitzroy

Hare: Wings

Dear Editor,

With a hare like Wings in charge, it’s no wonder we’re running from a Fitzroy pub to Victoria Park! In my day we wouldn’t have seen such a trail. Imagine the gall to take us from the lovely back streets of old Fitzroy, through Collingwood housing projects, past leering hoons, across a footbridge and into parkland by the Yarra River. No chance of shiggy, however, as he took us around Dights Falls on paved footpaths and back through Clifton Hill only to cross again at Punt Road near the Eastern Freeway overpass. There were far too many checks near busy intersections and it’s a lucky thing that all of our young people made it back in one piece. “Run of the Week” indeed! This run was a disgrace to our country and I blame the Americans.

Signed,

Black and White Forever

Dear Editor,

No sooner had this hash made it back to the smoky confines of the Rose Hotel than the line top the bar was wrapped around the corner. What does an Australian have to do to get a beer these days? It’s an utter disgrace that the hare, a certain “Wings”, should take us to such a popular venue. This hash should be meeting in dingy, empty pubs with nothing better to do on a Wednesday night than serve beer to hashers! I object most strenuously to having to share my drinking space with other customers – and the venue couldn’t even get our name right. Hash Hound Harriers indeed. It was a small satisfaction that Wings set his run from a venue that actually served honest, Aussie pub food. None of that posh tucker they get up in Moonee Ponds for me!

However, this venue was still a disgrace and the Americans are most certainly to blame for it.

Sincerely,

Thirsty in Fitzroy

Dear Editor,

If it weren’t for the arse-licking sycophantic qualities on display by the Lakeside Hash House Harriers we wouldn’t be in the mess we’re in today. In my day a GM was treated with the disdain and disrespect owing the position. But what did we get at this week’s hash? A shower of gifts! Father and Miss Piggy return from Gundawindi with an illustrated tale from the GM’s childhood, E&B return from Goa with a t-shirt, and Bovine takes the time to clip out the Herald Sun piece “Proud to be a Mummy’s Boy”. It’s shocking and the Americans are no doubt to blame for this disturbing trend in hash etiquette. We should instead be heaping credit on such worthies as Stuckon and E&B for lasting 90 runs with this mob, or on Deep Throat and Comfort Woman who are running off to Switzerland to cavort with lederhosen-clad bankers with unnumbered accounts.

Yours truly,

Not an Arse-Licker Like Bloody John Bloody Howard

Dear Editor,

Too much beer…

Regards,

Bleaargh

Dear Editor,

I would like to point out the generosity of Kenman Kandy for their support of Australian sport through donations of chocolate mousepads to the Lakeside Hash. Honest Australian consumers should support honest Australian companies like Kenman Kandy instead of greasy, underhanded American lolly pimps like Hersey’s or Mars who probably just want to send our boys off to die in the desert sun. Kenman Kandy is your friend. Eat more Kenman Kandy.

Sincerely,

Not an Employee of Kenman Kandy
