As I drove down the simpang which we fondly used to call kampong Melbourne, and came to the now fading sign in huge letters , “Slow Children Playing” I was reminded of all the old hashers who once live in the simpang: Jill Betts, Rhonda Mclean, Pam Gough, to name a few. Where are they now? And how grown up those children must be! Just as I was awakening from my trip down memory lane, who should I see but the grand dame of hashing herself; no other than Gina Constance . Was my mind playing tricks on me? I certainly am aging, but not that quickly, surely! No, Gina was real and she was back with us for the night, and, as usual, leading the pack.
We headed off down the simpang and over the rough road, past the menagerie of barking hounds to the escarpment, which took us into the jungle. Now at this point, there seemed to be a confusion of various types of paper. Not to worry, we carried on slipping and sliding ‘till checking from here was heard.
I went down a path to the right of the trail and found lots of paper, so called the on.

Many others followed and off we set to the waterfall and camp site.
At this point it got very confusing as we seemed to be on at least three different runs, all with lots of paper. After going up and down several different hashes we made an executive decision at quarter to six to head out, due to impending darkness. By quarter past six we were out and the rest of the hash followed within the hour. Those who completed the run said that it was very nice, so well done to the hares.
The shout up saw down downs for guests, honest hashers, hares and the hashit for Vania. Mad Margaret did a roaring trade in washer woman shoes and the technical side of tonights run was discussed. Thank you to the hares for the yummy laksa.

NEXT WEEK: 16 January - 2000TH CELEBRATION RUN
