Cock Radio, on the Couch, with Cherry Picker
G’dday mate, do you have a few minutes?
Ah, I know what this is about. As long as it is not a few hours!
When did you first join the Hash?
It was December 2006 at Claymore. It was a Christmas run and everyone was dressed up in red. Pussy Lifter took me. I had no idea what the Hash was about and I was astonished that running could be so much fun. It was just fantastic.
How did you get your name?
It was from Armless. He noticed that I was running behind a couple of female virgins on one run and suggested that I was a virgin chaser or hunter. Then someone called out cherry picker and that was it!
Do you have a memorable moment?
That would have to be my first run. I didn’t know that running could be so much fun, I always use to associate running with pain and torture. But this was just great!
What about your Favourite Run site?
Chestnut Avenue because there are lots of jungle paths that you can actually run along and not get caught up in shiggy all the time. I like to be able to run.
Yeah, I know what you mean. You are pretty tall too, I hate those runs where you have to bend over double dodging in and out trees in the jungle. Now, what do you like about the Hash?
It’s just fun! There’s no talk about work, you just totally forget about it. In fact I don’t even know what jobs most members have.
What do you dislike?
Nothing too much really. Politics I guess but there is not too much of that on the Hash. But there’s nothing I really dislike about the Hash.
Best ON On?
The Red Lantern, but that doesn’t mean we should go there all the time. It’s good to go to new places as well.
Anyone you particularly admire on the Hash?
All the old farts. To be running for more than 20 years and to still come out and turn up each week is a great effort.
On the Hash you should……… have fun and keep running!
Any food you would not eat?
Any organs and strange animals.
Are you going to ask me about my favourite run?
Why, do you want me to?
Yes, I have an answer ready.
Oh ok then, if you have actually put some thought into this. What is your favourite run?
Thanks, I thought you would never ask! That would be the Home Run I set with Circle Jerk the other week. It was actually the run of the year, it’s just that people don’t know it!
Did you plant the snake that Shaggy and I ran over?
Ha-ha, no it wasn’t me!
Then who was responsible for the old bag that leaned over the fence and told us it was past our bed time?
Ha-ha, Circle Jerk actually went to the house and explained what was going on early in the night. Only thing was he spoke to the maid and she didn’t have a clue what he was talking about!
Are you married?
Yes.
Who to?
My wife. (laughter) That was a pretty clever question Cock Radio!
You answered it well though, and honestly!
Any children? With your wife I mean.
1 boy aged 8 and he is a Hasher, goes to the Horrors on Sunday s.
Any words of wisdom to leave us with?
Just run the f***king hash! That’s all the wisdom I have. You’re not writing that are you?
‘You’re not writing that are you?’
Bastard!
Finally, do you follow Boo?
(laughter) NO! Never! One time I took a friend along to the run, he was a virgin. During the run, in the jungle, I thought I had better wait for him and make sure he was ok. So I’m waiting and waiting and waiting, finally someone tells me there is no one else behind, so I worry about what has happened to my friend. Have I lost a virgin in the jungle? Turns out he followed Boo and got home before me!
Thank you for sharing the couch this week Cherry Picker. No doubt we will see you this Friday, Chestnut Ave and the Red Lantern! You have scored the double. I
