Hardcore made a bold fashion statement\, turning up decorated in fresh nail polish. Having been absent from the club for a while\, Imelda found the running a bit of a shock to his poor body: half- way round his sore limbs demanded a stretch\, prompting him to drop into a full downward dog\, right on trail (Ed. when you gotta yo[ga]\, you gotta yo[ga]...sorry\, that's all I've got tonight!)\nKeeps Tripping was relen tlessly pursued by a local dog that took a bit too much of a shine to him.

Ever helpful\, Gaffer then offered Hotpants s ome unsolicited "advice" on what to do next time she needs a pitstop.

The Shorts complained the trail was far too short and took off in search of extra mileage which somehow ended with Dirty Bu m Bum being led up a back alley 👀. Doggy Style achieved legendary stat us by making an appearance at the pub solely to buy a bag of crisps\, laug hing\, and immediately departing into the night. Post-hash change-outs too k a turn when Boatie was caught red-handed (Ed. that may not have been hi s hand...) flashing at the ladies while they were undressing.

Moving on to the trail review\, Gaffer put it to the p ack: what did we think of Piltdown Man and Georgie Porgie’s hash? The un animous vote: rubbish\, too flat\, and too short. When asked if we were se rved "Sloppy Seconds" recycled from Teignbridge Hash’s Monday night run\ , Piltown Man offered a refreshingly honest\, "Yes." (Ed. admirably resour ceful:.
