The origins of my Fuzzy nickname predate the bunny suit, and is directly related to my leisure pursuits (read obsessions) of cycling and hashing with Dad's Army woven into the mix.


ummm..... Graeme?

forgive this poor ignorant N.A.-er, but when you say "hashing with Dad's Army" that brings to mind hashish-smoking assassins running through the backwoods with patched antique rifles, which one suspects, is not what that means where you come from - enlighten please?

13 October 2004 Ossian's Bar - Run write up


we headed down Morrison Street towards Haymarket but due to the rush hour traffic we never heard On being called somewhere back up at the Western Approach Road, where I have no idea as myself, Bugger Off and Tooth Fairy faffed about Haymarket for a bit and found a falsey which was nice.

...The trail it turned out went along a lane called Circus Lane (I think) then through Cumberland Street until it got to Dundas Street at which point it went up the hill until Northumberland Street past Kays Bar (oooh the temptation) then pretty much as the crow flies back to the pub.

...The pub then completed an excellent evening by laying on lots of grub as well as having some good beer on. JFP and Hot Tits did manage to persuade me and Cuprice into Thomsons across the road on the way home though for two more night caps before going home!!!

...Well, I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had about food and diets and remember, "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Chardonnay in one hand - strawberries in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming - WOO HOO!

5 May Leslies Bar - Run write up


Our new virgin Susan frae Fife who would it appears has not seen a hill as big as Arthur's Booty before wailed to Postman Pat "I hope we aren't going up that!" to which the venerable one replied "nah it's not cold or wet enough" and so it proved we just got to go up a small calf muscle of Arthur's before we were heading back down to tarmac and then Duddingston Loch. The descent down to the Loch with P.E.R.C.Y, Hairspray, Ayatollah Ken and myself was entertaining as P.E.R.C.Y, pointed out it was obvious we were all in need of new shoes as we slipped and slithered are way down the percipetous drop!

Once down by the Loch I followed Badger Tadger's example and gave a wide birth to large group of adult and junior swans who didn't look like they took kindly to hashers running through their and it must be said rather squalid patch. The trail then went past the Sheep's Heid and off down a wee narrow road after which I was starting to loose my bearings until I recognised a street leading to Portobello, Portobello what the feck are we doing in Portobello!!!!! Och but the Hare Grewsome was just joshing us, the real trail was headed for Gilmerton bloody hell Gilmerton with frantic glances at watches and cries of "oh feck we're still going away from the pub", I spotted a number of hashers Squatter Spotter etal you know who you are heading in a sensible pub like direction.... we ran on through a rather pleasant bit of woodland / grassland that I hadn't been through before and met up with Hairspray and Taxidermist coming from a different direction.

...Once in the pub it would appear that usual Hash intellect was at play, as the entire hash was squeezed into the smallest part of what is a small pub with the biggest bar in Edinburgh, obviously designed by a Barman who doesn't like having to work hard serving large numbers of customers!... So well done to the Pub and DM Stewart (whoever he is see below) and the Hares Grewsome, Gin Bin and Scotch Mist for an excellent run and for arranging much better weather than I did on mine!

...The RA Corny Linguist then gave a beer to my brain aka Cuprice, who having just completed a First Aid course earlier that afternoon choose and I hasten to add I hope any Hasher worth his or her salt would have done the same, to save a full pint of beer from certain spillage caused by a drunk failing to maintain equilibrium and head butting the table and then finally the floor.

...Next up was Monsoon Drain acting as stand in for Aberdeen Anguish but at this point Corny's notes are a bit to cryptic and I can't remember wot he said, so it couldn't have been that funny and therefore not worth writing about I say might have had something to do with the sorce of the free T shirts but I could be wrong I usually am.

The Mystery Whip was Flying Dutchman who snitched on Taxidermist for carrying so much equipment including two week old mouldy sandwiches from the Great Glen Way Trip two weeks earlier in his rucksack that it could have been mistaken for a girlies, while doing the toughest hill run race in Scotland!... Errr I better go wash my mouth out as I said race ohh dam I said it again arrrrgh run away oh feck that sounds a bit athletic too, oh holy crap I've said another rude word "athletic" ohh bugger there I go again I better stop and drink some more beer.
