Blimey! A beer stop!

The world has waltzed its way around the sun many, many times since we last experienced a beer stop mid-run. And how welcome it was to come across Scratchit with his little esky at the half-way mark and to replenish our precious bodily fluids. Here are some runners doing just that:


Our hares led us across the park and along the waterside for a very pleasant Kedron Brook jaunt...around 5 km for the walkers and 9 for the runners. This was followed up with some fragrant curry made with home-grown organic ingredients. The feeding frenzy said it all. Many thanks to Floater and Scratchit!






International Women's Day was recognised with some highly appropriate stories. Here's another one, which we originally posted back in 2009:

A very clever lawyer is sitting next to a blonde on a long plane flight. He suggests that they play a version of Trivial Pursuit to pass the time. He'll ask the blonde a question, and if she doesn't know the answer she'll give him $5. Then it'll be her turn to ask him a question, and if he doesn't know the answer he will give her $100.

The lawyer begins: "What's the capital of France?" he asks.

"I don't know," says the blonde.

"That'll be $5," says the lawyer. "Now you ask me a question."

The blonde thinks a moment. "What goes up a hill on four legs, and downhill on three legs?" she asks.

The lawyer struggles with this one for a long time, but eventually he has to say, "I don't know. Here's your $100. What is the answer?"

"I don't know," says the blonde. "Here's your $5"
