After a very successful social tournament the weekend before, we all gathered at the bar early on Sunday morning for our infamous Wined-up. A lot of the new caps knees were shaking from the nerves after looking out onto the field and seeing the obstacle course.
Wined-up started in the usual fashion, with a lot of people feeling the effects of the previous night, too lazy to get up and get things started. So we do our normal thing, grab some booze, sit down, light a hub and let the grown up sort shit out .
The ladies as always had a great showing on the day, the men…..were disappointing. We managed to throw two of our new recruits in, youngsters Spud and Mick. Unfortunately they have not reached the legal age to booze, so they were given Mutual Mocktails. And somehow they loved it? Next time I will use milk and tomato cocktail.
As always the obstacle course is fun to watch….not to do. It basically involves smashing beers then running and jumping around until you feel like you have to make a TC – Tactical Chunder. But it seems like this year we got thru it without any fatalities. Spud was close to making a pavement pizza, fortunately he took my kind words under consideration and ‘Manned the f*ck up’, he seemed fine after that.
The sisters ,Tatty and Panda, then had a competition to see who could stay on their back the longest #TellThem. Im not sure who really won…probably Gecko.
Fines as always got a little out of hand. Sparky got a mouthful of Goose’s 3 day old sock, he was later rushed to hospital suffering from athlete’s mouth. But all is ok, he came out of ICU the same day and is making a speedy recovery. I think it was all the pain killers they gave him that made him so calm and relaxed when we went there during visiting hours. For some reason when they gave his a choice of tablets or suppositories, he kept requesting the latter.
And no Wined-up is completed until Vis has his “Not so TC”. His back is like a genie’s lamp. If you keep rubbing it, something will come out!
