(Ed..."Late [Nov]ember\, back in\, er\, twenty-four..." No\, you're right: it doesn't work 😬)\n\nCirc ling up at 7.28pm\, three minutes late - but it was 0 degrees (!!)\, that was my GM excuse and I'm sticking to it!\n\nThis was my first Circle Up as the new GM: it had already been agreed\, due to the weather\, to crack on - and crack on I did.\n\nI can't believe we had no visitors or virgins... Lightweights! The quick\, fun fact (Ed. or are these Fun Factsβ„’\, under the new DS regime...? 😘) was about beavers: 'What sort of beavers?' I hear you ask. Well\, the MOON Beaver: it peaked last Friday\, with a marve llous moon. From that little chestnut\, I asked Tight Nuts why the ladies[ '] downstairs (Ed. presumed apostrophe\, unless Tight Nuts has a cellar an d has some acquired some female lodgers with an annoying penchant for crea ting stick-base water-impounding structures?) are known as 'beavers'. He j ust grinned\, so I thought\, 'I will ask the Hashers'. I have to say\, the Hashers were quite reserved in their replies. I Googled (Ed. a daring cou rse of action...)\, and found many answers - here are some: looks like a b eaver\; in the 15C\, lice were rife and so ladies had to shave and used be aver hair (like a sporran) to cover up\; beavers would mate during the ful l moon in November. There were other replies\, but best to keep them verba l rather than written (Ed. yes\, probably best 😳) - I don't want to be struck off just yet! πŸ˜†\n\nThe hares\, Bad Cock and Willy Waver\, very q uickly delivered the lengths (not sure I should call it 'lengths' with nam es like theirs [Ed. or precede 'the lengths' with the verb 'delivered' ... πŸ˜†])\, and off the Hashers and Harriets went. Barbarella fell over\, goi ng uphill (Ed. we've all been there...OK\, some of us have been there)\, n ot long after leaving the start\; that doesn't look good from the off!\n\n Blown Off took the lead from the start and came in first. As he is a new c ommittee member\, he thought he was best to lead by example (Ed. laudable 😘)\; "it's not a RACE!!" I hear you all shout... Dimwit may have come i n first if BO hadn't send him back to do the kick-outs: well done\, Dimmer s\, for taking one for the team.\n\nIt was reported that WGAS turned right but did not call 'On'\, and everyone else went the wrong way (Ed. shockin g conduct...but then it may just be that he 'WGAS' actually doesn't when i t's 0 ℃...). Know Nuts left the pub early: was it because he upset a lot of the Harriets by saying they were a bunch of old women? Well\, Know Nut s\, that would put you in the same camp\, 'cos you walk/run with them ever y week!\n\nJyde is believed to be well-endowed\, due to much bulging from his pockets: he looked rather pleased when the RA reported that last night . I'm glad to say we will never know...\n\nPiltdown Man thought the Short was perfect: hard to start\, getting easier as you went on. Nice Tackle ha d a mishap with a stile and a gate: he opted for the gate and the gate los t (Ed. [and maybe we too\, something in the translation...πŸ˜†] I would've thought the gate would present the lesser challenge of the two\, but some thing about it must've offended NT!) mind you so may his tackle have lost itself! (Ed. good grief - routine gate operation does not\, by my understa nding\, usually imperil 'tackle'! πŸ‘€)\n\nWetspot was the only moaner (Ed . so out of character...): he was moaning that we left three minutes late from the Circle Up: don't worry - I will improve that next week.\n\nGHR wa s heard in the car\, coming to the hash\, saying that he wasn't up for it. He was sat in the back with She's Ready - the relief on She's Ready's fac e further evidence that GHR wasn't up for it. Saying that\, any chance GHR could hold on to Can't Come (Ed. fairly sure that's not the person you ha ve in mind\, DS πŸ˜†...Come Tonight?) was noted\; he said he was only maki ng sure she didn't fall down and re-break her arm. Yeah\, yeah! We thought you two were very romantic\, walking along - and you were on the flat the n!\n\nOvershot was dobbed in for not shouting 'On On' (Ed. so out of chara cter...)\; the jury is still out on that one\, as he was sure he did.\n\nF or some reason\, Gary Glitter had been to Plymouth drinking\, managed to g et back\, and was put into the highchair. Well done\, GG\; I'm not sure I could get my leg in there (Ed. but\, and perhaps more crucially\, did she get out again...?)\n\nHappy Birthday to Vindaloo - plus\, and this went un der the radar but\, someone spilled the beans and informed me that Py also had a birthday\; something about a pension and bus pass was commented on. \n\nBased entirely on the 'select' photographic evidence from the evening\ , summations from above talk of birthdays\, and general hashing-based assu mptions\, it is hazarded that Down Downs went to:\n\nBad Cock &\; Willy Waver - (hypothermic?) hares\;\nBlown Off - 'winning the hash'\;\nNice Ta ckle - retaining (we hope!) all of his\, after the altercation with a gate \;\nGary Glitter - highchair-based contortions\;\nPinky - New Hare Razer/w elcome return/ nominated by birthday girl\, Vindaloo?\n\nThank you\, She's Ready\, for RA-ing\, and to Willy Waver and Bad Cock for the hash.\n\nON- ON to Modbury.\n\nPhoto credit: Rubbery\n_________________\nπŸ‘£\n\nπŸƒ πŸ“Έ 🍻 You can enjoy a choice selection of photos from the Shipley Brid ge hash on 20th November 2024 by checking out Hash Flash's purpose-built p hoto album on the SH4 Facebook page πŸ“Έ πŸƒπŸ»\n\n_____________________ ___________________\n\nNext SH4 Hash πŸ·πŸ‘£:\n\nHASH 1497 - MODBURY\, 27 th November 2024\n\nCIRCLE UP:\nPoundwell Meadow carpark\,\nModbury\n(Bott om carpark)\nWhat3Words: self.croaking.aware\n\nON DOWN:\nWhite Hart Hotel \n2 Church Street\,\nModbury\nPL21 0QW\nWhat3Words: daylight.lighters.amic ably\n\nPub Tel: 01548 830652\n\nHares: Undercovers\nRA: TBC\n\nThe kitche n at The White Hart would like us to pre-order: please see menu\, below.\n \nPlease get back to Undercovers by Monday with your choices (comment on t he post on the SH4 Facebook page 'Discussion' [or nominate someone to do f or you!]).\n\n \;\n\nFor further info\, please see the Hash 1497 event page on theSH4 Facebook Group.\n\nπŸ“ If you're the lucky Scribe at MODB URY on 27th November\, please submit your edition of The Words to thewords @sh4.org.uk by Saturday evening (30th November)\, ideally - TVM! πŸ“\n\nA dd your photos of how the evening went down (Weds 27th November\, 2024) to the Hash 1497 photo album on SH4's Facebook page \, courtesy: Rubbery.\n πŸ‘£\n________________________________________\nπŸ‘£ - PARISH NOTICES - πŸ‘£\n\n_________________\n\nπŸ‘£ - SH4 Fundraising - National Amyloidosis Centre - πŸ‘£\n\n🌟\n\nIn case you missed it last week (and also becaus e it's such a cracking picture\, and celebrates something that certainly d eserves a second mention)\, Hekkel and Jyde presented a cheque - represent ing monies raised by various SH4 fundraising efforts throughout the year a nd rounded up by the hash committee to a cool Β£1000 - to the National Amy loidosis Centre (NAC) at the Royal Free Hospital in London on 13 November.
