SCRIBE THE PENGUIN

One minute after 11 am and the Pie Mobile arrives loaded up with all sorts of strange people, dog, pies and stovies.  Sergio tries in vain to start the circle but this is ignored as hashers fight to grab a breakfast pie or mouthfull of stovies and the women continue rabbitting on about nothing at all. No time for niceties such as “Thank you Olymprick for being so kind as to bring all this lovely food to the hash.”  “Haggisimo you’re a minute late! Have a Down Down!”  Poor guy had been up half the night at Zurich Airport, catching the 3am flight to Aberdeen to catch a taxi to get to the bakery to cadge a lift to the hash via a customer in Torry who had been waiting for his Rowies since the previous night.
It was a beautiful crisp October morning when we set off east over the swamp, round the loch and over the road to the Cove side where a number of ingenious check backs kept the pack reasonably well together through Altens until we hit Cove Village where all the front runners totally lost the trail and found their own way back to the cars spotting the beer check at the other side of the loch on the way in. No-one felt inclined to run round the loch for a beer when there was loads awaiting in the Hash Beer car.
The circle started and the first down-down went to Bikeless (was it Sergio?) who had driven all the way home from some event with cycle rack on back of car but no bike which had been left behind. Today was Sergio’s Birthday but there was some debate as to whether this was his 51st or 61st. Watsoff was brought in as an Ali Bonggo lookalike – an old man with a beard.
Pig Iron reminded everyone that next week we have to turn our clocks back but had to point out to Lights Out that it is one hour back and not one week back as Lights Out had found his way to last week’s run site north of Kemnay instead of this week’s site south of Aberdeen.
Haggisimo was again brought in for no reason at all other than the fact he was there. Also in the Pie Mobile were Soapy & Bubbles who had walked 5000miles (Chorus from The Proclaimers) round the coast of Britain over the past year with their dog Havoc to raise funds for charity. Anyone wishing to contribute to their chosen charities may still do so and will find them waiting with open palms at the Pie Man’s shop on George Street where they have been retained working to pay for their B & B at Olymprick’s Palace. It was lovely to see Piss Poor back with us today.
Thanks to the Hare Toy Boy for a good run buggered up towards the end and for the nice little note at the Beer Check pointing out that the beer hidden in these bushes is for Aberdeen Hash and not for any other thieving bastard who may be sniffing around the area. I’m sure the kids from Torry were shit scared when they read this and did not dare open a single can. 
Trouser Shredder announced a tango party to be held on Sat 27 Oct at Cellar 35 at 8pm.
                                   ================================
An elderly gentleman had serious hearing problems for a number of years.  He went to the doctor and the doctor was able to have him fitted for a set of hearing aids that allowed the gentleman to hear 100%.  The elderly gentleman went back in a month to the doctor and the doctor said, "Your hearing is perfect. Your family must be really pleased that you can hear again." The gentleman replied, "Oh, I haven't told my family yet.  I just sit around and listen to the conversations. I've changed my will three times!"
                                 ========================================
Two elderly gentlemen from a retirement home were  sitting on  a bench under a tree when one turns to the other and says: "Jim,  I'm 83 years old now and I'm  just full of aches and pains. I know you're about my age. How do you feel?"  Jim says, "I feel just like a newborn baby." 
"Really!?  Like a newborn baby!?"  "Yep.  No hair, no teeth and I think I just wet my pants."
