RUN NO. 2041

RUN NO. 2041
DATE: 2 October
SITE: Subok 378
HARES:Jane/Julia/Angela/Sarah H
44 Hens/2 chicks

After a certain amount of car manoevering and hens attempting to park on the very steep hill slope and once the hens had rested after the walk up the hill to the site, the hens set off at 5 15. Carol on front horn, led the ladies round Nellie's car (which she didn't have time to move and which later flashed its lights angrily after it was moved by Dizzy) and Alice took the back horn which NO other hen had volunteered to do. Our JM " Naj the Nag", commented loudly on the fact that it was a bit of a worry that if no one wanted to do back horn, who would volunteer to take on responsibilities on the committee in November??

So the hens set off up a slippery bank and disappeared into the jungle. Soon the hares appeared in an excited mood having spotted a cat like creature which they could not identify. Indeed Sarah said it was the first animal she had actually seen in all her hashing days. However, Miss Attenborough Woolley later did some research and believes it was a bear cat. The other hens did not have the pleasure of seeing the creature, but were treated to a pretty tough run that "included a bit of everything"; lots of jungle, hills, swamp and a fallen tree to climb over. As it grew darker a mist came in and settled over the area (or was it the Haze? or smoke from the dump?)

Karen (P.P.Palmer) found not one, but 2 checks, namely the 1st and 3rd, and Carol found the 2nd. Many hens came out in the dark , but agreed it was a good run. Once again hares were worried that Linda was still in the jungle as she had yet to sign out. However, her daughter revealed that she had actually GONE HOME! This after having signed in TWO guests. So she remains the holder of the hash shit and it appears she will far out strip Dizzy in the stakes for a Founders day presentation.

Once we had ascertained her whereabouts the shout up proceeded. The hares were toasted and a guest from Poland welcomed. We were then treated to scrumptious rolls by the hares and some nice cold beverages were consumed until the usual site clearers packed up at around 1130.

Run on 9 October - KM 22.5 Coastal highway beachside opposite UBD
Hares: Jan M/Madam Sin
