Please see associated editorial note\, below]! We circled up on a steep incline in the centre of Yealmpton: Rizzo pipes up\, waffles on about stu ff\, and gives her most grateful thanks for all involved with Fallen Woman 's Memorial Hash at the weekend. Then follows JOKE OF THE WEEK: "What is t he difference between Wet Spot and a broken clock?" (Big pause) "Even a br oken clock is right twice a day" 🀣  The roar of laughter was deafening \, but I was still able to hear another one of Who Gives A Shit's ribs bre ak. Unfortunately\, Wet Spot was absent\, so please\, if anyone is to see him\, do kindly inform him of what he missed [Ed. I can just imagine with what grace and good-humour such news will be met].\n\nThen it came to aski ng for volunteers for the words: thankfully\, Re-Entry spotted how I was s truggling to raise my arm and assisted in volunteering me (sooooooo much a ppreciated). [Ed. I am getting just the very faintest whiff of insincerity here\, Boaty...]\n\nThen\, before we know it\, we’re off: galloping aro und the streets\; up\; down\; around and around - and then off we shoot\, into the wilderness\, running through some spectacular fields with astonis hing views of the South Hams. The Strange Man appeared in various location s\, making sure all hashers were safe and that the electricity supply was okay! [Ed. for those that missed the screenshot on the SH4 Facebook group (it's shared again\, for your continued enjoyment\, in the hash 1470 photo album)\, a concerned citizen had clocked the hare "spreading white powder "\, raised the alarm on the Yealmpton 'socials'\, and also gone to the tro uble of contacting the "electricity people" in her pursuit of an explanati on. Delicious.]\n\nI was lucky enough to be in the company of Pugsley and Can’t Come throughout most of the hash - well\, that was until the final mile when Pugsley sprinted ahead and left us for dust. I’m not sure wha t we had said to upset him (?)\, but I think it might have been that he he ard there was only one barmaid serving at the pub...\n\nApparently\, in on e of the fields were some frisky cows that took a liking to Silly Shunt. L uckily\, Fluffy Dice came to the rescue\, warding them off with his stick [Ed. another Hash Hero!]!\n\nCowpat and Vindaloo were aiming for a good 4- miler but ended up doing six [miles]\, due to the Lost Causes not kicking out the checks.\nSex wax's son-in-law [Ed. "Unlawful" - Boaty]\, beat Re-E ntry (good 🀣) - I’m sure there will be some excuse! WGAS took another nasty tumble and was knocked out cold: the girly FRBs ran past sniggering \, but once he regained consciousness he overtook Nice Tackle (what a man) . George got caught running out of a portaloo!\n\nAt the pub\, the queue f or the bar was getting longer and longer\, until it became just a big circ le round the room: I was thankful that I had also beaten Re-Entry back to the pub\, so was able to get served promptly. Winnie was so fed up of wait ing she just helped herself [Ed....and everyone else\, by pulling pints be hind the bar alongside the hasher-beset barmaid: Hash Heroine!]: wow\, tha t girl can drink!\n\nOnce everybody had finally been served\, we all got c omfy for Olive’s turn to waffle x10. I jokingly asked Flage to take note s for the words\, which she did [Ed. If you don't ask...]: I turned round about halfway through and she was there\, typing away - thankfully in shor thand!\n\nOlive commenced by making the observation that a lot of hashers were reaching the grand age of 50 - that is\, Overshot\, Ching Chong\, and yet again poor old Wet Spot\, i.e. being reminded his [50th] was a long t ime ago. It was actually Little Chef's birthday today\, which she shares w ith the world-famous 'Angela Jolly'... [Ed. which\, I think it's fair to s ay\, got a substantially bigger laugh than Joke of the Week: sorry\, Rizzo !]\n\nAfter a deafening rendition of the birthday song\, with the backing vocals [Ed. I am not sure if 'backing' is quite the right word here...] of Overshot\, she continued on\, raising a glass for Fallen Woman and offeri ng a special thank you to Filth and others for a super-memorable day - add ing that they had so far raised Β£420 [for the suicide support charity\, P ete's Dragons]\, and inviting folk to please\, still\, dig deep if you hav en’t already.\n\nAnd then she went off on a complete tangent about Dimme rs' sausage party and all the different sizes of sausages known to man [Ed . πŸ‘€].\n\nThere were\, though\, also congratulations to Barbarella for c ompleting the half-marathon\, which she did a couple of weeks ago\, as wel l as further applause for the Plymouth 10k Race for Life\, which she ran w ith Bedbug at the weekend and which they both completed in under an hour - even though Barbarella went the wrong way on a fully-marked run... 🀦 ‍♂️ [Ed. Well\, if she's to retain her title as one of the three Los t Causes\, she's got to put the work in...]\n\nApparently\, WGAS has been getting so bored at home he decided to welcome the Jehovah’s Witnesses\, with open arms\, to keep him company [Ed. I bet that threw them off-scrip t\, a bit!].\n\nWe raised our glasses to commemorate D-Day - and to Gaffer \, who was there on the day itself.\n\nDown Downs went to\nβ€’ Hares: Lady Godiva\, Nokkers\, Barbie (Strange Man)\nβ€’ Little Chef - 21st birthday\ nβ€’ WGAS - religious conversion/conversation\nβ€’ Sex Wax's Son-in-Law/Un lawful - SH4 virgin\; beating Re-Entry (It's not a race\, etc. etc...unles s it's vs. Re-Entry)\n(Ed.
